What Are Composite Veneers?

Composite veneers are thin, custom-made shells (dental veneers) applied directly to the surface of your teeth. Crafted from a dental composite resin that closely resembles natural tooth color and texture, they are designed to conceal imperfections such as chips, cracks, stains, and gaps. With composite veneers, you can improve the appearance of your teeth without extensive enamel removal or a hefty financial commitment.

At Atlas Dental, we provide top-quality composite veneer treatments that deliver immediate results, giving you the confidence to show off your smile. Let’s explore the key aspects of composite veneers to help you decide if they’re right for you.

Who Can Benefit from Composite Veneers?

Composite veneers are a versatile option for many individuals looking to improve their smiles. They are ideal if you have any of the following dental concerns:

  • Chipped or Cracked Teeth: Accidental chips or cracks can be easily hidden with composite veneers, restoring your teeth’s appearance and preventing further damage.
  • Discolored or Stained Teeth: If teeth whitening isn’t effective, veneers can provide a longer-lasting solution for a whiter smile.
  • Uneven or Misaligned Teeth: Composite veneers can correct minor misalignment or unevenly shaped teeth, creating a more uniform appearance.
  • Gaps Between Teeth: Veneers can be customized to close gaps, improving both aesthetics and confidence.
  • Worn Down Teeth: If your teeth are worn due to grinding or aging, veneers can rebuild their structure and appearance.
  • Small Teeth: For those unhappy with the size of their teeth, veneers can add length and volume for a more proportionate smile.
  • Cosmetic Smile Makeover: Whether you want to address multiple concerns or achieve a complete smile transformation, composite veneers offer a quick, effective solution.

Your dentist will assess your oral health, tooth condition, and overall smile goals to determine if composite veneers are the right option for you.If you have further questions about Composite Veneers, please contact us.

What Are The Alternatives To Composite Veneers?

If composite veneers aren’t the right choice for you, here are some alternatives:

  • Porcelain Veneers: While more durable and aesthetically superior, they are more expensive and require more enamel removal.
  • Teeth Whitening: A non-invasive option for those mainly concerned with tooth discoloration.
  • Dental Crowns: Used for severely damaged teeth, crowns offer strength and full coverage but are more invasive than veneers.

Each alternative has its advantages and limitations, and a dental professional can guide individuals in making an informed decision that aligns with their goals and budget. If you have further questions about Composite Veneers, please contact us.

Cost of Dental Veneers

Our Dental Veneers are commonly made with a variety of dental ceramics such as feldspathic porcelain, lithium disilicate, or zirconia. They can also be made using chairside composite filling materials. The cost for ceramic veneers include the dentist’s professional fee ($1140), plus any dental laboratory’s fee ($200-300) in making the porcelain veneer. The cost of a composite veneer is $500. The codes relevant to veneers in the Ontario Dental Association’s Suggested Fee Guide appear as follows:

Porcelain Veneers, Laboratory Processed

  • 27602 – Veneers, Porcelain/Ceramic/Polymer Glass, Bonded: $1140 + Dental Lab Fee ($200-300)

Composite Veneers

  • 23122 – Tooth Coloured Veneer Application – Non Prefabricated Direct Build-up – Bonded: $500

Costs can vary depending on where you live, the cosmetic dentist you choose, whether you have dental insurance coverage, the level of life-like esthetics you want, and the number of teeth requiring dental veneers. The Ontario Dental Association’s Suggested Fee Guide is a proposed fee structure that dentists in Ontario may or may not follow. Please consult with your dentist about fees before going ahead with treatment. 

Dental veneers are considered a cosmetic service under all dental insurance plans and are usually not covered by your dental insurance. This means you are entirely responsible for the out of pocket costs of this type of smile makeover treatment.

For patients without dental insurance, Atlas Dental is pleased to offer dental financing through Dentalcard. Affordable payment plans start at 7.95% for terms of 6 months to 6 years. To learn more about Dentalcard dental treatment financing, follow this link.
