How much does a dental veneer cost? Is a dental veneer good?

People who love beauty also have strict requirements for their teeth. Dental veneers are a quick and effective way to beautify teeth. So how much does a dental veneer cost? Let’s take a look today!

How much does a dental veneer cost?

There is no uniform price for dental veneers. For example, dental veneers are divided into resin veneers and porcelain veneers. The two categories are further subdivided. Different people have different choices, so the prices are different. The degree to which each person's mouth needs veneers is different, the number of veneers is also different, and the price is also different. Although the prices are different, the prices on the market are still similar. The price of resin veneers is generally more than 1,000 yuan. Ceramic veneers are veneers cut into a shape similar to the surface of the teeth, and then attached with special materials. The durability will be higher than resin veneers. The price is also more than 1,000 yuan.

Are dental veneers or porcelain teeth better?

If the teeth are healthy and free of caries, porcelain veneers are generally preferred to preserve more healthy tooth tissue. It is recommended to go to a regular dental prosthodontics department for examination and determine the treatment plan. After porcelain veneers are made, the teeth should not be subjected to large forces, which is beneficial to protecting the teeth and maintaining oral hygiene.

Advantages of dental veneers

1. Improve the appearance of teeth

In addition to whitening teeth, ceramic veneers can also improve problems such as small or pointed teeth or minor local damage to the teeth, making the teeth more neat and beautiful.

2. Beautify and cause less damage to teeth

Compared with all-ceramic teeth, dental veneers are less harmful to the essence of teeth. Teeth whitening veneers (ceramic veneers) only need to remove a small amount of tooth tissue (0.5~0.75m/m), and the grinding of teeth is less than metal ceramic teeth or all-ceramic teeth. In addition, teeth whitening veneers (ceramic veneers) have high wear resistance and color stability.

3. Maintain the health of periodontal tissues

For the sake of beauty, dentures usually need to have their edges inserted below the gums, which can easily cause gum redness and swelling. However, the edges of whitening veneers (ceramic veneers) can be located above or slightly below the gums, and sealed with insoluble adhesives, which keeps the gums healthier than denture crowns.

Teeth Whitening Strips

1. Hard veneer for dental veneers. This type of veneer is made by evenly grinding off a layer of the labial surface of the tooth, making a dental mold, and then processing it with a resin containing a dental porcelain material, and then sticking it on the tooth. Hard veneers have the advantages of high hardness, wear resistance, beautiful appearance, good finish, no discoloration, and long service life. And the price is moderate, which is an ideal choice for veneer restoration.

2. Porcelain veneers are also a type of dental veneers. This repair method is to evenly grind off a layer of the labial surface of the tooth, make a dental mold, and then use a special dental porcelain material to vacuum compress and fire it, and then stick it on the tooth. Advantages of porcelain veneers: they can reshape the shape and color of teeth, accurately control the color index of teeth, and have strong light transmittance, so the cosmetic effect is very good, it looks very natural, and can achieve a nearly perfect effect. The wear resistance is similar to that of teeth; in the porcelain restoration technology that can achieve natural beauty, grinding teeth is the least, and well-made porcelain veneers have little stimulation to the gums, stable color, and good biocompatibility. Porcelain veneers require a high level of doctor, relatively more operation steps, and are relatively expensive.

3. In addition, there are nano-resin veneers. This type of veneer is made by bonding a polymer composite resin to the surface of the ground teeth and carefully carving it into an ideal tooth shape. Since nano-resin has natural tooth color, it can effectively cover the color of discolored teeth and achieve a beautiful tooth color. Nano-resin is easy to shape, and through repeated carving by dentists, it can achieve an ideal tooth shape. Nano-resin veneers take a short time to operate and can be completed in one go.
