Porcelain veneers, designed to look like you.
Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic shells bonded to the front surface of your teeth to correct shape, color, and proportion. At Well Clinic Odontologia in São Paulo, the birthplace of Digital Smile Design, every veneer is planned digitally, tested in a reversible mock-up in your mouth, and crafted at the clinic's own Well Lab.
Consultations are available in English and Portuguese, in Jardim Paulista, São Paulo.
Birthplace of Digital Smile Design
You approve your smile before it exists.
Nothing becomes definitive without first becoming reversible. It is the method that was born here: Well Clinic Odontologia is the birthplace of Digital Smile Design.
A 2-hour first consultation
Teeth, bite, habits, and general health. Veneers last longer when the whole case is understood first. Bruxism, reflux, and breathing are part of the evaluation.
Digital Smile Design planning
Your new smile is designed digitally over your own face, with natural proportion, not a ready-made catalog smile.
A test in your own mouth
A reversible physical mock-up: you see and feel the result before deciding. Adjustments happen here, not afterwards.
Crafted at Well Lab
High-translucency ceramic produced at the clinic's in-house laboratory and bonded with a minimally invasive adhesive protocol, preserving healthy enamel.
Ultra-thin veneers or conventional porcelain veneers?
Ultra-thin veneers
- Very thin ceramic laminates, with minimal tooth preparation
- Indicated for adjustments of shape, color, and proportion
- Prioritize preserving your natural enamel
Conventional porcelain veneers
- Slightly thicker ceramic pieces
- Usually require more reduction of tooth structure
- Indicated when there is more structure to correct
What about composite bonding?
Patients researching veneers also find composite resin: a more accessible alternative for localized corrections, applied directly by the dentist. It usually needs more frequent maintenance and polishing and can change color over time, while porcelain tends to keep its color and gloss more stably. Which one makes sense for your case is defined in the evaluation, with no ready-made answer.
The choice is not your homework: it belongs to the planning. In the Digital Smile Design process, the team defines what each tooth needs, and you approve by seeing the result tested in your own mouth.
The honest answer about cost.
No serious number can be given without seeing your case. Be wary of anyone who gives one. The investment in porcelain veneers depends on factors that only an evaluation reveals:
At Well Clinic Odontologia, the complete treatment plan, with the exact investment, is presented after the 2-hour first consultation, before any decision. You can also read how dental treatment pricing works at the clinic.

What patients ask us.
What is the difference between ultra-thin veneers and conventional porcelain veneers?
Both are ceramic pieces bonded onto the tooth; the main difference is thickness and how much preparation the tooth needs. Ultra-thin veneers tend to be thinner and require minimal preparation, while conventional porcelain veneers usually require more reduction of tooth structure and are indicated when there is more to correct. The choice depends on your case and is defined during Digital Smile Design planning.
Do porcelain veneers damage your teeth?
No, when they are correctly indicated and executed with conservative preparation. At Well Clinic, tooth preparation is reduced to the minimum necessary to preserve healthy enamel, with minimally invasive adhesive bonding protocols. The correct indication is evaluated case by case, before any definitive procedure.
How long do porcelain veneers last?
Durability varies with each case and each patient's habits. Factors such as bruxism, reflux, bite, and breathing influence the lifespan of the pieces, which is why they are investigated before treatment so the result lasts. The estimate for your case is defined at the 2-hour first consultation.
Can I see my new smile before committing?
Yes. The process starts with Digital Smile Design, the method born at Well Clinic Odontologia: your new smile is designed digitally and then tested as a reversible physical mock-up in your own mouth. Nothing becomes definitive without your approval. The veneers are then crafted at Well Lab, the clinic's in-house digital laboratory.
