Porcelain Veneers in San Diego, CA
Transform Your Smile
At Smiles by Pai, we specialize in creating elevated, custom porcelain veneers that enhance your natural beauty. Led by Dr. Nidhi Pai, a nationally recognized cosmetic dentist with over 25 years of experience, our Del Mar-based practice serves discerning patients throughout Del Mar, Encinitas, Carmel Valley, La Jolla, and greater San Diego County, we’re here to give you the confident, radiant smile you’ve always dreamed of.
Whether you’re looking to correct chips, gaps, stains, or worn enamel, porcelain veneers offer a minimally invasive, long-lasting solution—with a radiant result you can see immediately.
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin, translucent shells made from advanced ceramic materials. They’re permanently bonded to the front of your teeth to correct:
-
Stains or discoloration that don’t respond to whitening
-
Small chips or cracks
-
Gaps between teeth
-
Minor misalignment or uneven edges
-
Worn-down or aging teeth
The result? A brighter, more balanced, and youthful-looking smile.
​
Porcelain veneers can last 15–20 years or longer with proper care. We’ll guide you with personalized care tips to protect your investment and keep your smile flawless.
