Is the cost determined per-veneer or for the entire porcelain veneer procedure? Is the price of veneers significantly different for products like Lumineers or Da Vinci veneers?

Answer: Cost of veneers... Believe it or not, the cost for veneers really depends on where you live. The coastal cities are usually much more expensive than the non-coastal cities. Not because the quality is better in a place like New York, Los Angeles, or Chicago, but because the population is more crowed, which leads to a larger demand. In St. Louis, veneers generally start at $1200, and can go up to about $1800, if the patient is requesting a specific brand of porcelain veneer. The cost is always determined as cost per tooth, not cost for the entire procedure. I want to caution you though, that finding the cheapest veneer should never be your goal. You goal should always be to find the most competent dentist that has great before and after photos and great communication skills, followed by a price that is very very reasonable (not necessarily the cheapest). Patients mistakenly doctor-shop like they are searching for the cheapest price at Wal mart, when what they really should be searching for is the best doctor at the best price. Good luck and I hope this helps. Follow me if you have more questions.Sarah Thompson, DMD

Answer: I Should have Done This Years Ago! This is what people ALWAYS say after getting their veneers. So, cost really shouldn't be the most important question. Veneers can range from $600 to $3000 each. It depends on where you live, quality of the lab making them, education and experience of the doctor, and planning expenses like a wax up for your temporaries.
