Achieve Your Perfect Smile with Our Personalized Veneer Process
Tailoring your smile's shade to match your unique aesthetic!
Embarking on a smile makeover journey can be both exciting and daunting. One of the key aspects to consider in this process is selecting the perfect shade for your new smile. At The Gorman Center for Fine Dentistry, we prioritize your preferences and work closely with you to find a shade that complements your natural look or achieves a slightly lighter, more radiant appearance.
Our approach to choosing the shade of your temporaries involves a collaborative and personalized process. Initially, we select a shade based on your desired outcome, whether it’s a natural look or a brighter smile. After you’ve had a few days to experience your temporary smile, we invite you back to review and discuss your satisfaction with the shade. This follow-up ensures that we make any necessary adjustments, so you leave with a smile that you truly love.

What can I expect during the veneers procedure?
Crafting and placing porcelain veneers is a meticulous process that requires teamwork and an excellent eye for detail. At The Gorman Center for Fine Dentistry, here’s a brief overview of our veneers procedure:
- Smile Consultation: the first step is to schedule a preliminary consultation with Dr. Lippe. During this visit, you’ll spend one-on-one time with our dentist to determine if this cosmetic procedure suits you. We’ll discuss your goals, what you like about your smile, what you don’t like, and treatment options.
- Preparation: Dr. Lippe will then take impressions (or molds) of your teeth and send them to Edgar Jimenez (our in-house dental lab ceramist). Dr. Lippe will place temporary veneers on your teeth, so you can take your new smile on a test drive while Edgar crafts your permanent veneers.
- Creating Your Veneers: creating your new smile usually takes about two to three weeks. During this time, Edgar and Dr. Lippe will work together to make sure your smile makeover is truly customized.
- Placement: once ready, Dr. Lippe will place your new permanent veneers. He will meticulously check the fit and color of your restorations to ensure they are perfect.
Love Your Smile: you walk out of our dental office with a gorgeous smile—meant only for you. Start smiling and show it off!
Are porcelain veneers permanent?
In short, yes. porcelain veneers are considered an irreversible procedure because it does require Dr. Lippe to remove tooth enamel to prepare for the placement of your permanent veneers.
However, veneers can last for about 10-15 years (even a lifetime!) if you take care of them properly. This means you must:
- Brush at least twice a day
- Floss at least once a day
- Visit Dr. Lexi Lippe for your biannual checkups
Please contact us to receive proper care instructions for your porcelain veneers in Minneapolis. We would be happy to help.

I first did a virtual consult with Dr. Lippe & was impressed with the time & thought that she put into responding back to me. Setting up my appointment was easy with Patti & as The Gorman Center’s office manager, she is absolutely wonderful, friendly, knowledgeable & puts you at ease. Dr. Lippe, Cassandra, Sarah & Robert are so thorough & friendly. After meeting each of them, I knew I had chosen the right practice. I travel 1 1/2 hours for each appointment & it is so worth it. Dr. Lippe is truly the best in her field! I trusted her & the whole team completely and am so glad I found them! They are passionate & they care!! And, they do beautiful work!
