Veneers are thin shells of porcelain or composite bonded to the front of your teeth to change their color, shape or size. At PureSmile in Kendall we design your smile with you first —photos, measurements and a try-in— and only then touch a tooth. You get the full price in writing before we start.
If there are cavities, gum problems or very crooked teeth, we treat those first or suggest another option (crowns, aligners or whitening).

In Miami, veneers cost between $500 and $2,500 per tooth depending on the material and the case. You get the full price of your plan in writing before we start. Payment plans and financing are available. Cosmetic veneers usually aren't covered by dental insurance; if you have a PPO plan, we check it for free in case it covers any treatment needed beforehand.
Treatment is done with local anesthesia when needed. It's normal to feel some sensitivity for a few days.
Porcelain veneers usually last 10–15 years and composite veneers 4–8, depending on care and habits (for example, clenching your teeth).
Porcelain veneers require preparing the tooth, so it's a permanent treatment: if one breaks, it gets replaced. That's why we design and try them in first.
Usually not, because they're cosmetic. We check your plan for free in case it covers treatment needed beforehand, such as fillings or cleanings.
