When deciding to enhance you smile crowns or veneers can both achieve the look you want. Veneers are typically used more on healthy teeth that just need cosmetic improvement. Often crowns are used when teeth are weaker either from previous cavities/fillings or root canals etc. Either option can look great, veneers are typically more conservative as they leave more healthy tooth structure in place. Prices vary per region, and the quality of lab used can impact pricing, if they are using a master ceramist or exclusive lab that can add to the cost for a more experienced technician. More importantly than cost would be how comfortable do you feel with their work? Cosmetic dentists usually have before and afters of THEIR work that they are willing to share. Questions to ask that may give you peace of mind would be: Have you treated someone with a issue similar to me? Do you have before and afters? Which lab would you use? Why? Would I have the opportunity to preview the changes or give feedback if I wanted to change something? When in doubt, get a second opinion.
