What Are Dental Veneers?
Veneers are remarkable ceramic shells designed to be fitted over natural teeth to conceal a host of dental flaws like cracks, chips, stains, gaps, and misshapenness. These devices typically take at least two appointments to place, and they can help a patient feel comfortable when they show their teeth when they smile, speak, or laugh.
The Process of Getting Veneers
The process of receiving veneers always begins with a consultation at our dental office in Shelby Township so the patient can discuss their needs and preferences with one of our experienced oral health professionals. The patient may need to receive preliminary procedures like fillings and gum disease therapy before they can receive veneers safely, and once they are ready our dentist will schedule them for two appointments:
- During the first, we will administer an appropriate anesthetic to ensure the patient’s comfort before removing a small amount of enamel from the teeth being treated, measuring the dimensions of the smile, and placing temporary veneers so they can get used to wearing them. The measurements taken will be sent to a trusted dental lab where a skilled technician will craft your customized veneers.
- During the second, which will usually be scheduled about two weeks later, we will remove the temporary devices and place the final set. After any last-minute adjustments, you’ll be ready to start showing off your new smile.
The Benefits of Veneers
Veneers offer a variety of impressive benefits such as:
- Being made from stain-resistant ceramic material so they can maintain a lovely appearance.
- Lasting up to fifteen years before needing replacement if they receive excellent care.
- Versatile treatment that can address many dental defects at once.
- Customized appliances that will be indistinguishable from your natural dental structure.
Understanding the Cost of Veneers
Dental insurance does not usually cover cosmetic treatments such as veneers, but it usually offers some coverage for preliminary treatments that address oral infections like fillings and gum disease therapy. We also offer the following options that can make veneers more affordable:
- In-house membership: For $339 a year, you can have your routine oral care covered and receive 15% off many of our other treatments.
- Flexible financing: We partner with CareCredit and Sunbit, third-party financiers that can set our patients up with convenient payment plans that can break their bills into smaller monthly payments.
We’ll be happy to help you navigate the cost of your procedure as well as your insurance and financing options when we see you for your consultation.
