Veneers: What They Are and How They Work
Veneers are thin shells of high-quality materials, like porcelain, that conceal everything from minor misalignment to permanent dental discoloration. To anchor them in place, our cosmetic dentist in Webster will first remove a sliver of your enamel, which will ensure the veneers don’t look bulky in any way. From there, the lab artisans will get to work meticulously crafting your permanent set. In the meantime, you will be given temporary veneers to give them a “test drive” and make sure you like them. After a few weeks, you will return to our office so we can place them on your teeth. After making any final adjustments, your new and improved smile will be all set!
The Benefits of Choosing Veneers
Year after year, veneers are one of the most sought-after cosmetic dental treatments. And it’s not hard to see why! This smile-transforming solution comes with multiple benefits, such as:
- Versatility – Veneers can be used whether you are interested in fixing one flawed tooth or undergoing a complete smile makeover.
- Longevity – Unlike other cosmetic dental services, veneers can last for 20+ years with proper care.
- Quickness – Instead of waiting months to see your results, you can use veneers to transform your smile in as little as two visits!
- Customization – Since veneers are custom-made for your unique smile, the results can be as discreet or dramatic as you’d like.
How to Care For Your Veneers
As mentioned above, veneers can last for decades with proper care. Fortunately, that task isn’t too cumbersome since they can be maintained with many of the best practices you should have in place anyway, including:
- Brushing your teeth for two minutes at least twice a day.
- Treating flossing as important as brushing.
- Using mouthwash regularly.
- Visiting your dentist every six months for a checkup and cleaning.
- Quitting poor dental habits, like smoking and nail-biting.
- Limiting your sugar consumption.
- Avoiding hard, sticky, or chewy foods that could damage your veneers.

Understanding the Cost of Veneers
Now that you know all about the benefits of veneers, you might just want to learn one more thing before scheduling an appointment: how much they cost. Unfortunately, we can’t provide you with an estimate of the price until we’ve conducted a thorough exam and learned all about your smile goals. The good news is that we can provide you with some helpful information pertaining to the cost, including how it compares to other popular smile-enhancing services!
Cost vs. Cosmetic Dentistry: What's Right For Me?
When researching the cost of veneers, it’s important to keep in mind how it compares to other cosmetic dental treatments, including:
Braces – Both braces and veneers can address cases of minor misalignment. Although they both require a higher upfront investment, there are some benefits to choosing veneers, including that the entire treatment process can be completed in just two or three appointments. Plus, braces only improve the position of your teeth, not their shape, size, or shade.
Teeth Whitening – It’s no secret that professional teeth whitening will blow any kits you find at your grocery store or pharmacy out of the water. However, there are some patients who would benefit from veneers instead, including those struggling with permanent discoloration. Again, the upfront investment will be higher, but the results can last significantly longer as well (10+ years with proper care).
Cosmetic Dental Bonding – Cosmetic dental bonding offers numerous benefits – from the affordable price to the quick procedure. The one “downside” is that it’s typically only recommended for small imperfections, like a minor chip. If you’re deciding between this smile-enhancing treatment and veneers, make sure to keep in mind the longevity of the results as well!
After reading through the above information, you’ll notice that veneers typically aren’t the cheapest option. With that said, their unique benefits (like a 10+ year lifespan) mean they could be the best choice for your smile and wallet!
How to Make Veneers Affordable
As you may know, dental insurance providers don’t typically cover the cost of elective treatments. Fortunately, our team at Webster Lake Dental offers another solution: flexible financing through CareCredit. With this option, you can space out the total price into smaller, monthly chunks. That way, you don’t have to try to budget for the entire cost of veneers at once. CareCredit also offers some payment plans with little-to-no interest attached, which helps keep the price affordable in the long run as well. As always, if you want to learn more about this financial solution, you can give our friendly dental team a call!
