How much are lab fees for veneers (both composite & porcelain)?

There are huge differences in composite vs porcelain veneers, but the lab fees vary by region.  I'll outline them below.Porcelain veneers are: highly stain resistant, very durable, can last you 20 years without breaking, you can select from several different shades, they function like real teeth, they are a permanent solution; more expensive.Composite veneers are: easily stained, not very strong, last days to possibly a few years (depending on where they are in the mouth), shade options are limited, don't really function with the strength of real teeth, are a temporary solution; much less expensive.Good luck and I hope this helps.

Hi, recently lot of dental companies are trying to market these composite veneers as a cheaper alternate and quick fix but nothing can surpass the finish and look of porcelain veneers. Yes, you can get porcelain veneers to replace composites anytime and will always get better result.

I highly recommend porcelain veneers over composite veneers.  Although they are more expensive, they are worth the investment.  Porcelain veneers are much stronger, more stain resistant, much more esthetically appealing, and can last years without fracturing.  Composite restorations, I believe, will end up costing longer in the long run because after a short period of time they loose their sheen and they look unnatural.  They stain easily, and are not esthetically appealing.  They can also break much more easily.  Most people tend to replace their composite restoration more often than the porcelain restoration.  With this said, I recommend you see a dentist very experienced in cosmetics prior to any treatment.
