Your smile, perfected with personalized veneers

Veneers are ultra-thin shells made of porcelain or composite resin, designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. Think of them as a cosmetic upgrade for your smile — they’re used to fix imperfections like:
• Chips or cracks
• Discoloration or deep stains
• Gaps between teeth
• Uneven or misshapen teeth
• Worn-down enamel

Veneers are custom-crafted to match your natural teeth, creating a seamless, natural-looking smile enhancement.
With meticulous attention to detail and collaboration with the renowned Frontier Dental Laboratories, Dr. Moran ensures each set of veneers is tailored to elevate not only your smile but also your confidence and overall quality of life.

Dr. Moran is passionate and skilled in providing the best veneers and smile makeovers in San Francisco and the Bay Area. Getting a flawless smile is as easy as 1, 2, 3 with durable and strong porcelain veneers from MeDental, San Francisco.

Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that Dr. Moran permanently bonds to minimally prepared teeth. Dr. Moran customizes the shape, shade, and size of the veneers to create something beautiful that improves your teeth,  smile and overall face.

Every case is customized just for you and what you want for your new smile. From the intricate shaping of the teeth done by Dr. Moran, and the porcelain lab work by Frontier Dental Laboratories, Dr. Moran and her team spend hours ensuring that you have a set of veneers that mimic nature but still greatly improves your smile, appearance, chewing and bite function, and most importantly, your confidence and your life.

Improve your overall smile
dental clinicdental care services
Veneers can improve a smile from good to great. Sometimes patients just want a better, more perfect smile. Veneers are the perfect option as we are able to customize shade, shape, and size of the veneers to exactly what the patient wants.

Whiten discolored or stained teeth
dental clinic san franciscodental health care
Years of teeth discoloration from diet or tetracycline stains are usually permanent and whitening will not bring you the shade you want for your teeth. Veneers are the best option as we can customize the shade to be lighter but also look natural and harmonious to your skin tone and the rest of your face.

Fix misaligned teeth and gaps

Sometimes patients don't want to go through Invisalign to fix minor imperfections in the position of their teeth. Veneers are the perfect option to enhance the look of the teeth and have a straighter smile within just three weeks. NOTE: For severely crowded teeth or patients with a bad bite, it may be important to do Invisalign first prior to doing veneers.

Fix acidic erosion, decay, and neglect

Due to diet, health issues, lack of dental care, or other external factors, patients can end up with broken, decayed or eroded teeth when they get older. No matter the situation, we always work with the patient and make a treatment plan to bring their teeth back to health and to give back their smile.

Increase the size of teeth

Having small teeth relative your face, lips, and smile, can impact a smile. Bigger teeth can make a smile more youthful, wider and proportional to the face. Veneers help change the shape of teeth to fit with their smile and face.

Fix worn down teeth from grinding
dentist office san francisco cadentist near san francisco ca
Years of grinding or excess wear on the front teeth can cause the front teeth to chip and flatten out. This can affect your chewing, your bite, your smile and even a more collapsed lower third of your face. Veneers and crowns can add length back to the teeth resulting in a better bite, building back your smile and increasing back the height of the lower third of your face.

Remove gaps from gum recession
dentist san franciscodental service
Black triangles are holes in between your teeth previously filled with gums that have now receded. This can cause food traps and can lead to patients being insecure with the gaps in their teeth and smile. With veneers we can shape the teeth a certain way to close the black triangles but still allow for a natural and beautiful smile.

Replace an old set of veneers
dental offices in san franciscodental professionals
Veneers can last a long time. However, sometimes patients may want an upgrade, a new look, or some veneers may start to chip or stain at the margin where gum recession happens. Whatever the reason, we will remove the old veneers and place new and improved veneers catered to what the patient wants.

Frequently asked questions

What are porcelain veneers?
Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are permanently cemented on the front of the teeth to enhance the shape, shade and esthetics of the tooth.
How many veneers do I need?
It depends on the patient's needs, their teeth health, and the overall smile they want. The more veneers done, the more control we have in changing the overlook esthetics and the overall bite.  It also depends on the budget of the patient. Doing two or four veneers can greatly improve a patient's smile.  We avoid doing six veneers in a row as this means stopping at the canines which makes the smile unnatural and the veneers conspicuous.
Do veneers damage your teeth?
No. Veneers don’t actively damage your teeth. However, it’s still possible for the natural tooth structure underneath to decay. Therefore, it’s important to brush, floss and visit your dentist regularly for cleanings.
Are Veneers Permanent?
It depends. Most veneers are considered a semi-permanent solution. Porcelain veneers can last over a decade with proper care, while composite veneers may need replacing after 5–7 years. With good oral hygiene and regular dental visits, your veneers can look great for years to come.
Are Veneers Worth It?
Yes. If you value a bright, confident smile and want fast, long-lasting results without invasive surgery, veneers are absolutely worth considering.They’re not a budget option, but they are a high-impact investment in your appearance and self-esteem. Patients at Me Dental SF often tell us the results were “life-changing” — and many say they wish they’d done it sooner.
How long does the whole process take?
The whole process takes up to one month.
  1. The first appointment consists of the consultation, determining the wants and needs of the patient, comprehensive digital photography of the full face and teeth of the patient and doing a digital scan. These are sent to the lab to fabricate a wax up.

  2. The second appointment will be to prep the teeth and make the temporary veneers. The temporaries are made based on the wax up. The patient will have a few days to test run the temporaries and will be seen a few days after to make any final adjustments.

  3. Lastly, the cementation date takes place 2-3 weeks after the prep appointment. This includes cementing the final veneers.

How do I know what the final result will look like?
The temporary veneers gives an idea to the patient as to how the final veneers will look like. The temporaries veneers are made from the wax up from the lab. We send in detailed photos and descriptions as to what the patient wants and what the teeth should look like when giving the instructions to the lab for the wax up. When the temporary veneers are on the patient, the patient has a few days to "test drive" the temporaries and see if they like the esthetics, the shape, and the feel of it. We then do a digital scan of the final temporary veneers and send it to the lab so the lab knows how to proceed with the final veneers. The shade of the final veneers is also chosen together with the patient and is ensured to be customized to patient overall facial esthetics.
plus iconminus icon
How do I protect my veneers?
After the veneers are permanently cemented, we make you a complimentary night guard/retainer to wear every night. This ensures that your veneers and your natural teeth are protected from any grinding or clenching. Additionally, just like taking care of your natural teeth, you have to brush 2x/day and floss 1x/ day and keep up with your every 4-6 month cleanings and check ups.
plus iconminus icon
Does it hurt getting veneers?
During the preparation and cementation appointment you will have to be given local anesthesia. The injections are the only part that may hurt throughout this whole process. With the local anesthetic, you won't feel anything throughout the treatment. We also offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) for patients who want extra comfort to alleviate their anxiety.
Post op sensitivity and slight gum soreness is expected, but all this can be alleviated with Ibuprofen and will decrease with time. Post op sensitivity can last up to 3 months.
plus iconminus icon
What dental lab do you use to make the veneers?
We use Frontier Dental Laboratories.
plus iconminus icon
Do you offer payment plans for veneers?
Yes. We have in office payment plans of up to 4-6 months depending on the total cost. We require a 25% deposit upon starting the whole process. We also accept Care Credit.
plus iconminus icon
How much do veneers cost?
We follow the average fee of veneers in San Francisco which ranges from $1900-2000 depending on the case.
