When considering getting cosmetic dentistry work done you must always consider the price and weigh it with the potential results and the impact these results will have on your life. The cost of veneers is more expensive than many cosmetic dentistry procedures but because of it's ability to instantly and dramatically change a smile it is often considered worth the price. Of course porcelain veneers are not for everyone, many cases can be treated with more simple means. To find out what will work best for you see a cosmetic dentist.
The changes that porcelain veneers can create are so significant that for many people the cost of veneers is well worth it. Porcelain veneers are made of a thin shell of porcelain that is clasped over the teeth. The outside face of the porcelain is a carefully crafted and beautiful smile. Veneers can be placed over teeth with some orthodontic problems, so that it gives the appearance of instant orthodontics work. While the veneers do not actually do anything to fix these problems the appearance of a new smile is instantaneous.
The cost of veneers depends on several factors. The number of teeth that the veneers would cover and type of veneers you choose will both impact the price. Traditional veneers can cost anywhere between 900 to 2,500 dollars per tooth. These must be replaced every ten to fifteen years. Composite veneers are cheaper but must be replaced more often, every 5 to seven years. Another option is Lumineer porcelain veneers. This is a relatively new technology and while it is cheaper than traditional veneers their longevity is unknown but expected to be as long as regular veneers.
