SMILE BRILLIANTLY, Live Beautifully.
Porcelain veneers are for the smile details you cannot stop noticing. The color that never gets bright enough. The worn edges. The small gaps. The teeth that look short, uneven, or out of proportion every time you see yourself in a photo.
Veneers are thin, custom-crafted porcelain restorations bonded to the front of the teeth. They can change color, shape, length, proportion, and the visible alignment of your smile in a way that looks natural when it is designed correctly. The porcelain resists staining and mimics the translucency of enamel, which is why a well-made veneer does not look flat, bulky, or fake.
At Dentistry at East Piedmont in Marietta, porcelain veneers are planned around your face, not pulled from a template. We study your smile line, lip movement, bite, tooth shape, and goals before designing the result. View our smile gallery to see real veneer cases from patients who trusted us with that process.
Dr. Patel is a graduate of the Hornbrook Advanced Cosmetic Dentistry Continuum, one of the most rigorous cosmetic dentistry training programs in the country.

Veneers are unforgiving in the best way. The details have to be right: the color, the translucency, the edge shape, the gum line, the bite, and the way the smile belongs to the rest of the face. Dentistry at East Piedmont was founded by Dr. Ashish Patel, whose advanced cosmetic training informs how our team approaches veneer design.
Today, all three of our doctors place porcelain veneers and work closely with hand-selected dental ceramists who specialize in natural-looking cosmetic dentistry. That collaboration matters. A beautiful veneer is not just white porcelain. It is contour, texture, light, shade, and proportion.
Your treatment happens in a private, modern treatment room equipped with digital scanning technology that supports precise preparation without traditional impressions. You experience the comforts that have made Dentistry at East Piedmont known as Marietta's upscale dental spa, and a team who treats every patient like family.
Every smile you'll see on this page belongs to a real patient who said yes to sharing their transformation. No stock photos. Every face is someone who walked through our doors and trusted us with their smile.

Every smile we design is one of a kind. Your dentist evaluates your facial proportions, smile line, lip shape, and the way you talk and laugh before your veneers are crafted. The result looks so natural that no one would know you weren't born with it.
Porcelain doesn't stain the way natural enamel does. Coffee, red wine, dark berries, and the things you actually enjoy stop being threats to your smile. Your veneers stay the color they were placed.
With routine care (the same brushing, flossing, and check-ups you already do), your porcelain veneers stay beautiful for decades. A long-term investment in how you look and feel every day.
Veneers don't just change your teeth. They change how you carry yourself, how you greet people, how you show up in photos. They change the way you feel about your smile every day.
You sit down with one of our doctors and talk through the smile you want. We look at your face, study how you talk and smile, take photographs and digital scans, and listen to what you love and what you would change.
We prepare only what your case requires, preserving healthy tooth structure whenever possible while creating the room needed for natural-looking porcelain.
Your veneers are crafted by ceramists who specialize in color, translucency, contour, and the small surface details that make porcelain look alive.
Before bonding, we check color, shape, fit, and bite. Once everything is right, your veneers are placed and polished so you leave with the smile you came for.
Veneers are powerful cosmetic dentistry, but they are not the right answer for every smile. The strongest candidates look like this.
If you have active gum disease, untreated cavities, or significant tooth grinding, we'll start by stabilizing those issues with the right foundation first, which may include a custom night guard or restorative care before placing veneers. Strong foundations are non-negotiable for results that last.
Porcelain veneers are a personal investment in how you look, feel, and present yourself every day. The investment depends on the number of teeth being treated, the complexity of your case, and the level of customization required. We walk you through the plan during your consultation so you have a complete picture before any decisions are made.
Because porcelain veneers are considered a cosmetic procedure, dental insurance does not cover them. That's true across the industry, in-network or out-of-network. We tell you that clearly before you make decisions.
To make veneers manageable, we partner with reputable third-party lenders for financing. Most patients qualify for flexible monthly payment plans that fit comfortably into a budget so the investment doesn't have to come out of pocket all at once.
The most reliable way to know if veneers are right for you is the consultation itself. We'll examine your smile, review your goals, and tell you honestly whether veneers are the best path forward.
No-prep veneers are ultra-thin porcelain shells that bond directly to your natural teeth without removing any enamel. They're a great option when you want a refined cosmetic change while keeping your tooth structure fully intact. Not everyone is a candidate. No-prep veneers work best when your teeth are slightly smaller or when minimal correction is needed. During your free consultation, we'll tell you whether no-prep or traditional veneers are the right path for your smile.
Caring for your veneers feels just like caring for your natural smile. Brush twice a day, floss daily, keep your regular dental cleanings at Dentistry at East Piedmont, skip using your teeth as tools (no opening packages, no chewing ice), and wear your custom night guard. With routine care, your veneers stay beautiful for years to come.
Most porcelain veneers cost up to $2,500 per tooth. Your actual investment depends on the complexity of your case, the number of teeth, and the level of customization. Think of veneers less as a product and more as commissioned artwork. We'll walk you through your exact investment during your free consultation.
No, but they do require a permanent change to your tooth structure. We reshape a small amount of enamel to make space for the porcelain shell. The underlying tooth stays healthy, and the veneer itself protects the front surface once it's bonded in place. Once you have veneers, you'll always need them on those teeth, and with routine care, your natural teeth beneath your veneers stay healthy for decades.
No. Your veneers are bonded to your teeth with a strong dental adhesive and designed to stay in place for years. Like your natural teeth, they can be damaged by hard habits like grinding, chewing ice, or biting fingernails. If a veneer does come loose, we can usually re-cement the original one without having to remake it, as long as the veneer itself isn't damaged. The best protection is the same care you'd give your natural smile.
No. The best veneers look so natural that no one would know you weren't born with them. Our doctors design your smile around your face, your skin tone, and the way light reflects through natural enamel. You get a refined version of you. Not a transformation that announces itself.
Yes. Veneers are a long-term cosmetic restoration, often lasting decades with good care. Because a small amount of enamel is reshaped during preparation, your teeth will always need veneer protection once placed. You'll find that's a small trade for years of a smile you actually love.
No. You'll be more comfortable than you expect. Tooth preparation is done with local anesthesia, so you don't feel the work being done. Settle in with noise-cancelling headphones, a cozy blanket, and your favorite show on the TV while we work. Some mild sensitivity for a few days afterward is normal as you adjust. If you want the deepest level of comfort, we offer a variety of sedation options.
Two to four weeks from your first consultation to your finished smile. You come in for your initial visit and smile-design conversation, return for tooth preparation and digital scans, then return one more time for placement. Between appointments, your veneers are hand-crafted by our trusted ceramists, artisans who specialize in cosmetic dental work. The artistry takes time. The result lasts for years.
