What Is MINISH?
MINISH rebuilds enamel that has been worn, chipped, cracked, or compromised by older dental work.

Your Smile, At Its Best
Schedule a consultation to review your smile goals and what is possible for your teeth.
Schedule a ConsultationNo. Traditional veneers require permanently grinding down healthy enamel. It's a restoration, not a replacement.
In 90% of cases, no. Because minimal or no tooth reduction is required, most patients complete the entire treatment comfortably without anesthesia.
The ceramic is bio-mimetic — engineered to replicate how natural enamel transmits light. At 0.1mm, the layers integrate with your real tooth rather than cover it. The result looks like a better version of your own teeth.
Yes. MINISH can be applied over teeth with existing restorations, old composites, or prior veneer work. It works across all teeth, front and back.
The best way to know is a clinical assessment with Ghina Morad, DMD. Good candidates have intact but compromised enamel from erosion, grinding, chips, staining, or aging restorations.
Composite uses resin applied directly to the tooth — less expensive, but more prone to staining and chipping. MINISH uses precision ceramic that is harder, more stain-resistant, and designed to last significantly longer.
In most cases, none. Because the procedure involves minimal preparation and no anesthesia for most patients, you can return to normal activities immediately. Some patients notice brief sensitivity for a few days as they adjust.
