how many porcelain veneers do I need?

[Yana]

Hi

I would like to have veneers placed on my top teeth. When I smile you can see most of my top teeth but I cant afford to have them all veneered at the moment. I am hoping to save up to have more teeth done in the future but for now I would like to have a few top front teeth done to improve the colour and shape of my front teeth. My dentist suggested composite veneers but I prefer porcelain veneers because they last longer and seem to look better too. Can you tell me what is the minimum number of porcelain veneers I would need for a smile makeover?

Thank you for your post Yana.

Typically most people choose to have between 4 - 10 porcelain veneers in Smile makeovers. This can be more or less however, depending on your individual case.

Usually, one of our team of experienced Dentists would assess your smile, and discuss your expectations upon consultation, and then recommend a number.

It is not advisable to have some porcelain veneers made now and then some added at a later date, as the added ones will be very difficult to match to the original ones. Therefore, in order to achieve the best possible result, it is best to have the number that you want from the outset.

At Pearl Dental Clinic, we do also offer 0% finance options to help you spread the total cost of your veneers, should you require it. We also offer free teeth whitening with 4 or more porcelain veneers.

If you are seriously considering veneers as an option, we would recommend coming to see one of our Dentists for a free. no obligation consultation to discuss your options. Appointments are available 7 days a week. If you would like to arrange an appointment, or have any further queries, please feel free to contact our reception team on the numbers below.
