The patient guide
A smile plan is more than a price per tooth.
Before comparing veneer fees, decide what you want to change, which teeth need treatment and whether veneers are the most suitable way to achieve it.

01
What are you trying to change?
A useful consultation should define the goal before counting veneers.
A specific concern
Describe whether the concern is colour, shape, a chip or tooth position. Ask whether a smaller or different treatment could meet that goal.
The number of teeth
Ask why each tooth is included. A larger set should have a clear purpose rather than being presented as a standard smile package.
The type of restoration
Clarify whether the proposal uses composite or laboratory-made ceramic and whether any teeth actually need another type of treatment.
A closer look
Start with the questions that matter.
Bring your concerns to the consultation. Ask for an explanation you can understand before making a decision.
02
What belongs in the estimate?
Ask for clarity on the work before, during and after fitting.
1
Planning and trials
Are photographs, records and any mock-up or trial included? Ask what the trial is intended to help you decide.
2
Preparation and fabrication
Clarify the planned tooth alteration, any temporary work, laboratory stages and fitting. Ask what changes could result in extra fees.
3
Review and repair
Ask about adjustments, the response to a chip or debond and the terms of any repair policy. Know which follow-up appointments are included.
03
Think beyond the initial purchase
Cosmetic treatment becomes part of your ongoing dental care.
Future maintenance
Ask about cleaning, bite habits and the possibility of repair or replacement. Discuss this commitment before irreversible tooth alteration.
Insurance and payment
Confirm the clinic’s payment arrangements and ask your insurer about your proposed treatment. Do not assume a cosmetic treatment is covered.
Time to consider
Take the plan home and compare it with your original goal. A second opinion can be useful if the proposed change feels more extensive than you expected.
A little more detail
Your questions, answered.
That can miss differences in planning, preparation, materials, temporary work and follow-up. Compare the whole written treatment plan.
They may have a different fee structure, but ask the clinic for current prices and compare repair and maintenance as well as the initial amount.
No. The number and type of restorations should follow an assessment of your teeth, health and expectations.
Veneers can need repair or replacement. Ask what could affect the result and how future care would be managed.
