Alright so I understand Lumineer is just a brand and I LOVE how they look but it's too expensive but it will give me just what I'm looking for bigger and super white teether, can someone give me a cheaper comprable brand, I think I'm interested in porcelain veneers, I heard the emax has a gray tint, THATS NOT what I'm looking for I soley want them for aesthetic purposes, and the less the prep the better, thank you for your time guys!
Answer: Less cost option You can look into composite veneers which is also called resin veneers or white fillings veneers. They cost around $500-750 each. Can last up to 5 years but they usually have issues prior to that and it will require more maintenance than porcelain or Lumineers veneers. Porcelain veneers can be just as expensive as Lumineers if not more at times. Both porcelain veneers and Lumineers costs varies due to where and who you go to have your work done. IPS eMax is also a brand of Lithium Disilicate veneers which is a type of material for veneers. They can have a grayish tint ONLY if the dentist prescribed them that way, but eMax can be really WHITE if prescribed that way. As matter of fact, Lumineers are IPS eMax Lithium Disilicate veneers (a brand using another brand). Another MUCH LESS cosmetic option is the temporary removable veneer set called Snap-On smile. Put them in when you want to look good and take them out when you want. You can eat with them.

Answer: Less Expensive Alternative to Lumineers Lumineers are a brand name and there are many labs that offer similar services. Porcelain is the best way to go, but resin veneers are available and are much less expensive. They do require more maintenance, are not as strong, and will stain. So periodic touchups and additional expense can be expected if you choose to go that route. I would recommend paying a little more and having porcelain, as it will last for many years and can sometimes be done with no or little prep. To make porcelain more affordable, many offices offer payment plans through Care Credit or similar services. In that way you can make monthly payments instead of a large case outlay. Best advise is to have a consultation so the dentist can determine if you are a candidate for no prep or minimal prep veneers. You should be able to tell them how much you can afford and how you intend to pay. Then between the two of you, you can come up with a treatment plan that suits your needs.
