Why Veneers?

Veneers are strong, thin porcelain coverings custom made in a lab and bonded to a natural tooth. Top Thousand Oaks dentist, Dr. Chow, has the expertise to make sure the veneer is the right shape, color and size so it will match surrounding teeth.

In addition to providing a stunning, white smile with even teeth that look natural, veneers also provide other benefits. For example, not only do they cover cracked, broken teeth or weakened teeth, but also provide additional strength and protection. Damaged teeth open the door to tooth decay and gum disease, and veneers provide a formidable defense because teeth with veneers are easier to brush and floss. If you are interested in porcelain veneers in Thousand Oaks & surrounding areas, come see Dr. Albert Chow.

Real Patient Reviews

I had been wanting to find a holistic dentist for quite a while, so I did a bit of research and found Dr. Chow. I don’t usually like going to the dentist, but today changed that. Dr. Chow and his entire team are outstanding. His office is beautiful, clean, and the ambiance is calm and relaxing. My appointment was scheduled at 7:30 a.m., and I was escorted back to the dental chair at 7:29 a.m. They were kind enough to provide me with an early appointment so I could get to work on time. I had full X-rays and a cleaning by their amazing hygienist, who took her time explaining exactly what she was doing and what she was seeing throughout the procedure. She was pleasant to interact with and even massaged my gums as part of the cleaning. Dr. Chow then completed an extensive dental exam. He was extremely thorough and attentive to my concerns. He discovered four cavities that a previous dentist had missed. We also decided to perform a CT scan to ensure there was no hidden oral disease where previous root canals had been performed. I’m thrilled that I found Dr. Chow and his incredible team. I can’t wait for my daughters to see him as well. If you’re looking for an outstanding dentist who goes above and beyond in every way, Dr. Chow is your guy.

I was able to get squeezed in for a very challenging emergency tooth extraction due to a horrible infection. The entire staff was personable, and Dr. Chow took his time caring for my tooth. I was really sick from the infection, and I’m grateful for the care I received.

Dr. Chow is a true craftsman in his profession, and I would not hesitate to recommend him. He deserves all the five-star reviews posted about him. For 12 years, I suffered from infections affecting my sinuses and stomach and could not permanently heal them. Finally, a dentist discovered I had an infected cavitation in my lower left jaw that had gone undetected for more than 30 years. I had one opportunity to fix this issue and selected Dr. Chow because he was one of the few dentists with the expertise to properly address my condition. I also felt his fees were reasonable for the level of care required. It took about nine weeks after surgery for my body to adjust to not being sick all the time. Since then, I’ve experienced a dramatic resurgence in health that I had not felt in years. At 70 years old, I’m back in the gym three times a week, practicing yoga at home, and enjoying full productive days again. I truly feel like I have my life back. My wife, employees, and seven grandchildren thank you as well. Fantastic job by Dr. Chow.

After more than 20 years of struggling with chronic illness, I was led down a path that ultimately brought me to Dr. Chow. I decided to remove four root canals and all remaining metal fillings that were contributing to severe health concerns for me. What initially felt like a desperate last effort has turned into a journey of healing and hope. I have undergone two six-hour surgeries with Dr. Chow, with more treatment still ahead, and I have never felt more safe or cared for by a medical professional. The staff feels like family — warm, familiar faces that make me feel genuinely seen and supported. Dr. Chow’s passion for holistic medicine brings a unique perspective to treatment. He understands the connection between oral health and whole-body wellness. Following my procedures, he has continued supportive care with ozone therapy to help address lingering infections and inflammation. His care has played a major role in my recovery and renewed sense of hope. Choosing Dr. Chow was one of the best healthcare decisions I’ve ever made.

Dental Veneers: Procedure

A tooth being prepped for a veneer is slightly shaved back to compensate for the thickness of the veneer. Veneers are very thin, similar to the thickness of eggshell, although very tough. Dr. Chow will first remove any decay found if necessary. In some cases, an anesthetic may not even be necessary for this trimming step. Using a shade guide, Dr. Chow will find the correct shade of porcelain that will match as closely as possible your surrounding teeth. Porcelain veneers are also translucent, just like natural teeth. An impression will be taken of your teeth and gums in order to make a model of your jaw. Our high tech lab will use this model to custom make your veneer.

You may have a temporary veneer attached to your tooth during the period when your permanent veneer is being made. It depends on how much of your natural tooth had to be shaved. If it was only slight, it may be possible to not have a temporary attached. Dr. Chow will go over this option with you in your initial visit. The permanent veneer will be bonded to the tooth. If you had a temporary veneer in the interim, Dr. Chow will remove it. He will carefully trim or reshape it as needed until it fits perfectly.  You may not even need an anesthetic for this process. Dr. Chow will also make any needed final touches to the color of the veneer.

Although he chooses the closest match possible, it may not be a perfect match. The cementing material can also be fine tuned to make slight changes in the color. Once the fit and color are finalized, your tooth's surface will be etched in order to create a rougher surface for the cement to adhere to. A curing light will be aimed at the veneered tooth to set the cement. This takes only a minute or two. Dr. Chow will now do the final touches, including checking your bite and polishing the veneer. You can now enjoy greater confidence in showing the world your new straight and radiant smile!
