How much? Are dental veneers worth it?

Dental veneers are popular in cosmetic dentistry because celebrities and social media influencers benefit from having a perfect smile. But if you are a regular person, are they worth the investment?

It’s the million-dollar question.

How much do you value:

·        Straight white teeth

·        A restored smile

·        A boost to your confidence

·        A rapid solution to problematic teeth

·        Long-lasting results

·        Easy maintenance

We are a top dental clinic in Christchurch that specializes in cosmetic dentistry. We offer dental veneers to help patients get a perfect smile. Porcelain veneers fix broken, crooked, stained, and gapped teeth. Duxton Dental makes veneers that look natural, and our patients love them.

Veneers are highly effective at transforming teeth. They are durable and require no additional maintenance, so they are an affordable cosmetic dental solution.

Before you agree to get veneers from a cosmetic dentist, it’s crucial that you have an in-depth appointment with them. Now you have the opportunity to determine if veneers are worth it. Additionally, you can find out if they are the best cosmetic dentist for the procedure.

Before choosing a cosmetic dentist, make sure to do your homework. Look into their qualifications, read online reviews, and check out before and after images. Also, consider the cleanliness and hygiene of their dental clinic.

An open and honest conversation with your cosmetic dentist

The consultation with any cosmetic dentist should never be a monologue; it needs to be a conversation. While you are there to receive dental treatment information, you should also ask questions. Find out what the process includes and the results you can expect for your oral health and situation.

If a cosmetic dentist doesn't check your oral health and history before a dental procedure, find a different dentist. Not everybody is a suitable candidate for veneers.

Are you a good candidate for veneers?

At Duxton Dental, our priority is your long-term oral health. We only do procedures if your oral health is good and it benefits you.

Veneers are not suitable for patients who have gum disease, weak enamel, or complex cosmetic dental issues. You may still have a great smile, but we can provide other suitable options. These include:

·        Professional teeth whitening

·        Orthodontic treatment

·        ABB: align, bleach and bond

How long does it take to get veneers?

The initial consultation and oral investigation take around six weeks. We measure and analyze your facial structure and teeth for the perfect fit, and we agree upon the color. We remove a small amount of tooth enamel and apply temporary veneers while we make your custom veneers in the lab. Once they are ready, we permanently attach the new veneers.

Duxton Dental thrives on seeing our patients happy and smiling. The first step to a confident smile is to call 03 348 5488 to schedule an appointment. We can’t promise you veneers, but what we can deliver is a healthy, perfect smile, and that is priceless.
