Does anyone have Porcelain Veneers, and can you tell me about them?

Would they melt in a sauna or easily break? About what could you expect the price to be for about 4 of them? Please help, I had braces in the past but I want to close the small gap in my two front teeth and I like the curved look.

The price will vary from dentist to dentist for all four 2 - 4 grand. Make sure you see before and after pics of patients. Make sure to ask the dentist if he still uses the same dental lab as in the pics to ensure you know what you're getting.





Veneers are an excellent way to close gaps and should last a very long time with proper care (don't go around trying to open bottles with your teeth). They will NOT melt. In the creation process they are baked at temps up to 1600 degrees.





Be very specific about how you want them to look (rounded, square, etc.). There is even a smile catalog that you and the dentist can go over to make sure you're on the same page.





One last piece of advice:


Don't go SUPER white. Choose a shade that is natural and that will blend with your canines and lower teeth. Even if you bleach, too white veneers will look fake and jump out like a bathtub.





Good Luck!
Reply:I heard they last up to 20 years. The price might be a bit costly maybe $2-3k for 4 teeth.





Id get it done if my teeth get worse. I have 1 cross bite which bites but its ok cause when I smile it isnt visible since it is on the bottom row :).
