What are Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are a cosmetic dental treatment that involves placing thin, shell-like pieces of porcelain on the front of your teeth to fix issues such as gaps, stains, and misaligned teeth. Put simply, they can make your teeth look whiter, straighter, and more even.

Porcelain veneers differ from bonding and crowns in that they are less invasive and mimic the natural look of teeth better. They are more durable and long-lasting than bonding, and they require less tooth removal than crowns.

The Benefits of Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers offer many benefits, some of which include

– Durability: Porcelain veneers last on average for 10-15 years with proper care and maintenance.
– Natural-looking results: They match the color and translucency of your natural teeth, giving you the confidence to smile without feeling self-conscious.
– Versatility: Porcelain veneers fix a wide range of dental issues, including gaps, stains, and misaligned teeth.

The Process of Getting Porcelain Veneers

Getting porcelain veneers requires several appointments. The first appointment is a consultation where we perform an exam to evaluate your dental health. The second step involves preparing your teeth for veneers by removing a small portion of the enamel. Afterward, our dental professionals will take impressions of your teeth, which will be used to craft your personalized porcelain veneers in a dental lab.

Once your porcelain veneers are ready, we will attach them to your teeth using a special adhesive and curing light. The process of getting veneers may slightly vary depending on your dental situation.

Factors Impacting Cost

The cost of porcelain veneers depends on several factors. These factors include the number of veneers required, the severity of damage to your teeth, and the geographic location of your dental clinic. Here at Children’s Dental Building, the cost of veneers starts at $1100.00 per tooth. We offer flexible financing options to make your porcelain veneers more affordable.

Insurance Coverage

Although porcelain veneers are often considered cosmetic procedures, there are situations where insurance will cover the cost. For instance, if a veneer is needed to restore a damaged tooth due to injury or decay, your insurance may provide coverage. It’s important to check with your dental provider or insurance company to determine your coverage options.
