What Is a Cheaper Option for Veneers?
By Dr. Eastwood – Summerbrook Dental & Implants, Fort Worth, TX
Veneers are an amazing way to transform your smile — but let’s be honest, porcelain veneers can be pricey, especially if you’re looking to fix multiple teeth. If you love the idea of a better smile but need a more budget-friendly option, you’re not alone. The good news is, there are alternatives that can give you great results without the higher price tag.
The most common and affordable alternative to porcelain veneers is composite veneers. These are made from a tooth-colored resin (the same material we use for fillings) and can be applied directly to your teeth in just one visit. Composite veneers are less expensive, often costing about half as much as porcelain veneers.
Here’s a quick comparison:
-
Porcelain veneers: $1,000–$2,500 per tooth
-
Composite veneers: $500–$1,000 per tooth
While porcelain lasts longer (10–15 years or more), composite veneers can still last 5–7 years with good care. They also look great, and they can be repaired easily if they chip or wear down.
