Like everything in life, the different kinds of veneers have their pros and cons. Composite veneers are cheaper, but they have a shorter lifetime, they don’t look as natural. They also stain more easily than porcelain (which is virtually stain resistant).
Composite veneers attach to your existing tooth without as much reshaping as porcelain veneers. On the bright side, the costs are much lower. And finally, composite veneers can be ready on the spot.
The 'con' of porcelain veneers is definitely the cost. There's no avoiding it: porcelain veneers prices are higher than composites. But you can pay for them in manageable installments with flexible finance options. Porcelain veneers do cost more to start with. But on the other hand, you don’t need to keep paying to replace them like you do with composites. And that’s because porcelain can last many years, or even a lifetime with proper care.
You may feel worried about the process of tooth prep for porcelain veneers. But Dr Daley will make absolutely sure you are perfectly comfortable. And for extra-nervous patients, IV sedation is available so you can sleep right through treatment and wake up to your dream result.
Finally, the biggest 'pro' of porcelain is that it looks great. It has the pearly lustre of healthy natural teeth. And your
cosmetic dentist can perfectly adjust the shade to suit your smile and complexion. Dr Daley has advanced training and extensive experience in porcelain veneers. That means you don’t have to worry about looking fake or ‘overdone’. You’ll get the smile you want, and you’ll feel confident and informed every step of the way.
