Question:
How expensive are porcelain veneers?
Answer:
There are many different types of porcelain veneers that are marketed today and there are also many dental ceramists that have a wide range of skills. You may pick the right material but the ceramist doesn’t give good quality. You can pick the best dental ceramist but the wrong type of porcelain veneer for the patient. The result is fake looking teeth.
I have found that in my office, I work with one dental ceramist and he and I work together on every patient. I actually work on the porcelain myself and both of us discuss the type of porcelain that would work best on each patient. Sometimes I need to bring him into the office to see the patient personally in order for both of us to pick the porcelain and decide how to prepare that teeth to utilize the best characteristics of the type of porcelain that we chose to use. It all depends on the color of the patient teeth, the size of the teeth, the patient bite and the patients expectations on how natural and how white they want their teeth to appear. Some types of porcelain are better for hiding dark teeth and other types of porcelain transfer light for a clean natural look.
