Finding Out How Much Veneers Cost

What are dental Veneers?

Dental Veneers are individually manufactured shells that fit over the front of teeth. These shells are custom made and made-to-measure to fit precisely over the front of teeth and are used to alter the appearance of existing teeth.

Why do people choose to have Dental Veneers fitted?

Dental Veneers are a quick, and relatively simple way to give your smile a completely new look. Sometimes described as a 'face-lift' for your mouth, Dental Veneers give a totally new appearance to your teeth and smile. Dental Veneers are usually opted for by people who are not happy with the appearance of their teeth. Veneers are often used to cover up discoloured, damaged, crooked or worn down teeth. Instead of more invasive procedures that may involve replacing whole teeth, veneers simply fit over the top of your existing teeth so for minimal intrusion a patient can achieve a wonderful new aesthetic effect for their smile.

Why is having a good smile important?

Knowing that you have a good smile can work wonders for your self-confidence. A smile is a wonderful ice-breaker and lets others know that you are a warm and confident person. A good smile filled with nicely formed teeth can make you seem more attractive to others and may help you in both social and professional situations.

How would you go about finding out how much Veneers cost?

As with all cosmetic procedures, the range in price can be fairly dramatic depending on the clinic you visit, where the clinic is and the experience of the cosmetic dentist who will be doing the work for you. Dental Veneers can cost you anywhere between £200-£1100 per tooth so it is by no means and inexpensive procedure to have done. The cost of Veneers is further complicated by the type of material used to make the individual Veneers. There are now lots of different options available and this decision will vastly alter the cost of the procedure. When choosing a cosmetic dentist to do this work for you it is worth doing a lot of research. Make sure you look not simply for the cheapest deal, but for the best package available. This includes the experience and reputation of the dentist as well as the after-care treatment available through the clinic. The cheapest option will not always offer you the best solution: it may be worth spending a little more to make sure you get exactly what you want.
