WORTH IT$3,770
I had braces for a year but, my smile ( though completely straight) still had gaps because they were 'too small for my mouth'. I hated it and started to research veneers. I found an ad on google and decided to reach out for a consultation. I found that staff as well as Dr. to be very sweet, welcoming and knowledgeable. my teeth look great. I will upload pictures later today.

Dr. Shahrestany was very honest and upfront when I first met with her for a consultation. She explained how she was concerned that the veneers would be large due to the size of the gaps versus the small size of my teeth but, I still wanted them anyway.She promised to try and make them look as natural as she could given the circumstances and she did just that. I am happy with my overall result. They look nice and compliment my bottom row nicely.

Your smile looks amazing. Can I know how many veneers you had put in? Did you get your other teeth whitened as well?

Hi Catie,
Thank you! I had 6 porcelain veneers placed on my top row. I opted for veneers two shades whiter than the rest of my teeth per the doctors instruction since veneers cannot be bleached. I used regular whitening tooth paste on the rest of my teeth ; they brightened quickly and match the veneers very well. I hope you find this to be helpful.

6 veneers for $3770, that's an awesome price. I was just quoted $12,000 here in Atlanta for 6. By any chance, do you know the exact color shade you have? Also, do you know what brand of porcelain veneers you have (DaVinci, E-Max,etc.)?
Thanks,
Mick

Hi,
Mine are DaVinci. Also, I do not remember the shade name or number but, I do remember that there were two sets of colors wheels. One set was for natural shades and the other set was for bleached shades ;which were extremely white. I chose a color from the natural set but, because veneers cannot be bleached Dr. S suggested that I go brighter especially since i bleach my natural teeth. I ended up choosing the second darkest tone/ shade on the bleach colors set. ( sorry i dont know the specifics) Lastly, I was lucky enough to have found my dentist while she was doing a promo hence the huge discount. I had seen several dentists before about veneers and received quotes that were higher but, nothing as high as 12k. hope you find this helpful and Good luck!!
