Posted 21 Feb 2011

I had jaw surgery and my teeth shifted. I needed to get braces (again) but the best result with the braces could only be achieved by leaving a small gaps in my smile. Dr. A did an amazing job making my smile complete again with porcelain veneers. I had to move away from Chicago, but every dentist I've seen since then raves about the work she did--they're very impressed and so am I.

Hi Royal,

Welcome to the community. That's fantastic that your teeth look so great. Did the procedure hurt at all? We would love to see pictures. Please keep us updated.

Thanks so much for the review,

Nope--didn't feel a thing. She caters to folks who get a little anxious at the dentist's office (like myself).

As for pictures...after I wrote my review, I looked around at the pics Dr. Alfe had posted and was surprised to see my teeth up there--#5, the before and after shot with the braces.

Embarrassed that the before shots are actually me, but the after shots look quite a bit better.

Your teeth looks amazing. She did a wonderful job. I also live in chicago and want to get vaneers. I'm glad I read your post becuase now I know who to go to. I was just wondering though, was the cost $1200 per tooth?

If you look under the review, the dentist's name is there, it is Dr. Gerilyn Alfe. You can click on her picture to go to her profile if you want to learn more about her & her practice.

Hope that helps. :)

Hi there, this is Dr. Alfe and please allow me to clarify. Our cost for veneers start at $2000/tooth. It was a while ago that I treated this patient and the reason for the confusion is that the patient had a few different procedures performed by me and by other dentists and misremembered the cost for the veneers. I spoke with the patient offline about this and didn't think I needed to post but I don't want anyone having misinformation. We do have 0% financing available for qualified patients through outside companies so many patients can have the treatment done that they want and spread their payments out over time.
