I work between both practices. I’m based in Los Angeles, and I take one trip a month to our New York office.
If you are looking for veneers in NYC, that is the first thing you should know about me. The second is that the process doesn’t change with the city.
The same process, in New York
Every smile is custom. The process behind it isn’t.
It starts with a ninety-minute consultation: your history, an exam, x-rays, scans and photos, and an honest answer about what I would recommend. On prep day, I design your teeth by hand and place your temporaries. On insert day, I place your final hand-layered porcelain.
Visits planned around my trips
Because I am in New York once a month, we plan your appointments around those trips. You know your dates from the start, and nothing is improvised.
Your temporaries do the work in between
Between prep day and insert day, you live in your temporaries for two to three weeks. They are a real preview of the final result, not a placeholder.
The next day, once you are no longer numb, we review color, shape and proportion together, and I adjust until you sign off. Only then do the records go to our in-house lab.
This is also why I don’t rush the porcelain. I explain that in why I don’t do same-day veneers.
Care that continues
A few days after insert day, our hygienist sees you. After that, I want to see you quarterly, and at minimum once a year.
