Dental veneers are thin, custom crafted shells bonded to the front surface of your teeth to correct imperfections in color, shape, spacing, or proportion. At Form + Function Dental Aesthetics, Dr. Kevin approaches every veneer case with the kind of precision and aesthetic sensibility that patients consistently describe as exceptional. The goal is never a dramatic transformation for its own sake. It's a smile that looks like it always belonged to you.

Quick Takeaways
- Veneers correct cosmetic concerns including discoloration, chips, uneven spacing, and tooth shape without extensive reshaping of healthy structure.
- Ideal candidates have generally healthy teeth and gums and are looking to refine the appearance of their smile with a lasting solution.
- Form + Function uses high quality porcelain materials selected for their natural translucency and durability.
- The process typically spans two to three appointments, beginning with a consultation and custom treatment planning.
- Investment varies based on the number of teeth treated and case complexity; contact the practice directly for personalized pricing and financing options.
Are You a Good Candidate for Veneers?
Most patients who arrive at Form + Function already have a strong sense that veneers are right for them. If you've been living with any of the following concerns, that instinct is likely correct:
- Stubborn discoloration that whitening hasn't resolved
- Chips or small fractures that affect your smile's overall appearance
- Gaps or slight spacing irregularities between teeth
- Teeth that appear uneven, short, or mismatched in size
- Worn edges that have dulled the natural vitality of your smile
Veneers are a precision solution, and they perform best when the underlying structure is sound. Healthy gum tissue and adequate enamel are the foundation a successful case is built on. If either is a concern, those are addressed first before moving forward.
If your concerns are primarily cosmetic and your dental health is in good standing, you're likely an excellent candidate. A consultation is the best way to determine whether veneers are the right choice for your smile and what results you can realistically expect.
What the Veneer Process Looks Like at Form + Function
Getting veneers typically involves three main phases:
1. Consultation & Smile Planning
Your journey starts with a consultation. We'll discuss what you like about your smile, what you'd like to change, and the overall outcome you're hoping to achieve. This appointment helps us determine whether veneers suit you and allows us to create a treatment plan tailored to your goals.
2. Tooth Preparation & Temporary Veneers
Once your plan is finalized, a small amount of enamel is carefully reshaped to prepare your teeth for veneers. Temporary veneers are then placed, giving you the opportunity to preview your new smile and get comfortable with the mouthfeel before your final restorations are created.
3. Final Veneer Placement
When your custom veneers are ready, we'll carefully evaluate their fit, appearance, and function before bonding them into place. We review all the details to ensure your veneers look harmonious, feel comfortable, and work harmoniously with your bite.
Throughout the process, our focus is on creating a smile that feels like an enhanced version of your own. One that's designed to form beautifully and function comfortably for years to come.
Cost, Financing, and What to Expect from Insurance
Veneer pricing varies based on the number of restorations and the complexity of your case. A personalized assessment is the only way to give you a number that actually means something, because a single tooth refinement and a full smile redesign are entirely different scopes of work.
Veneers are considered a cosmetic procedure, which means dental insurance typically does not cover them. That's worth knowing upfront.

Why Patients Choose Form + Function for Their Veneers
There is a difference between a dental office that offers veneers and one built around the discipline of them. Veneers are a permanent, irreversible cosmetic procedure, and the thing that separates a good result from a regret is almost never the porcelain. It is the training, the planning and the judgement that happen before a single tooth is touched.
- Dr. Kevin Tan earned both his undergraduate degree and his Doctor of Dental Surgery from Virginia Commonwealth University, and completed the curriculum at the Kois Center, a postgraduate institute whose entire teaching model is built on evidence based smile design, occlusion and predicting how a restoration will behave over time
- Cosmetic and restorative dentistry are the same skill set here, not two departments. The dentist designing the veneer is the one who understands what the tooth underneath it has to do for the next twenty years
- Every case is planned digitally, from clinical photography and a digital scan taken at your consultation. You see the design before it is made, and the shape, length, midline and smile line are decided against your face rather than against a catalogue
- Enamel is treated as something you do not get back. Where the result can be achieved with a no prep or minimal prep veneer, that is what Dr. Kevin will recommend, and he will tell you plainly when it cannot be
- Your bite and your airway are evaluated before any tooth is prepared. A veneer case placed onto an unexamined bite is the one that chips, debonds or wears the opposing teeth, and that evaluation is the reason it does not happen here
- The shade is matched in the room, in daylight, against your skin, and nothing is cemented until it looks right to both of us
- Every case in the gallery was planned, prepared and delivered in this studio by Dr. Kevin. None of it is stock photography or a simulation
The experience matters too, and it is genuinely unlike a clinical office: a space designed as a private retreat, meticulous attention at every stage, and hospitality that treats you as the priority from the moment you arrive. But the experience is what makes the appointment pleasant. The training is what makes the veneers right.
