Veneers in Castro Valley & Hayward, CA

At Mark S. Murphy, DDS, we proudly craft and place porcelain veneers right here in our Castro Valley office, offering patients in both Castro Valley and Hayward the benefits of highly customized, efficient cosmetic dentistry. Our in-house veneer process includes personalized staining, shaping, and design to deliver natural results that match your smile, skin tone, and preferences.

Veneers are thin, durable porcelain shells that are bonded to the front surfaces of teeth to correct a variety of cosmetic imperfections. If you're dealing with chips, gaps, uneven shapes, or deep discoloration, custom veneers can dramatically enhance your smile with minimal dental work.

Unlike many dental offices that outsource veneers to a lab, our practice handles the entire process in-house — from tooth preparation to custom staining and shaping. This ensures:

• More natural, aesthetic results
  
  
• Better communication and control throughout the process
  
  
• Faster turnaround times
  
  
• A more personalized smile design experience

Our family-run office uses state-of-the-art imaging and color matching techniques to help patients in Castro Valley and Hayward achieve beautiful, lifelike results they can feel proud of.

We provide a detailed, hands-on veneer process that includes three essential appointments:

1. Consultation & Smile Evaluation: During your first visit, Dr. Mark Murphy or Dr. Mackenzie Murphy will examine your teeth, review your goals, and determine if veneers are the best cosmetic option. We'll discuss the desired shape, color, and alignment of your new smile.
   
   
2. Tooth Preparation & Custom Design: At your second visit, we gently prepare the teeth by removing a thin layer of enamel. Then, we take precise digital impressions and begin designing your veneers in-house. We also work with you to select the ideal shade and shape to complement your facial features.
   
   
3. Final Placement & Bonding: A few days later, your final veneers are ready for placement. We’ll ensure each veneer fits perfectly, then bond them securely to your teeth. Minor adjustments are made as needed to ensure optimal comfort and appearance.

Because we complete each stage right here in our Castro Valley office, the process is efficient and carefully tailored to your individual needs.
