If you’ve noticed more bright white smiles lately, it’s likely these people have undergone treatment for a full set of veneers. You might find that you are ready for a full set after you read about what veneers are and the costs that can be expected.
What is a full set of veneers?
First, let’s start with the basics: what exactly is a veneer? A veneer is a coating or shell that is perfectly fitted to a tooth and put on to cover the front of the tooth surface, creating a cleaner, smoother and brighter look. You can get a veneer put on one tooth, a few teeth, or you can get a full set of veneers. Getting the full set means receiving custom veneers for all of your visible teeth on the upper and bottom parts of your gums. A full set of veneers aims to brighten your smile and alters the tooth shaping so that the teeth appear more uniform and aesthetically pleasing. Full sets of veneers can be done with porcelain or composite resin based on cost needs. Read more about the affordable teeth veneers we offer at Irby Dentistry.
Is paying for a full set of veneers worth it?
Now that you know exactly what a full set entails, you may be wondering if this type of procedure is for you. It’s smart to weigh the pros and cons before making a decision that will impact your smile and your wallet. We know you want to make informed decisions, so let’s talk about the advantages and disadvantages of a full set of veneers.
Advantages
The obvious pro of a full set of veneers is the aesthetic value. Veneers immediately fix stains, chips and gaps in your teeth that can take away from your smile. Veneers are resistant to new stains and can last over 15 years when taken care of properly, so your investment has quite a long lifespan. Getting the procedure done is pretty easy: no shots or anesthesia as with other dental procedures, but just a small amount of enamel removal. You’ll end up with natural looking teeth that have a beautiful shine.
Disadvantages
Along with the obvious pro, there is also the obvious con: the price. Unfortunately veneers can be quite an investment, as they can range from $550-$2,400 per tooth. Although they are durable, veneers can be prone to cracking or chipping if you grind your teeth, resulting in a need for a replacement. The procedure is very non-invasive, but does remove certain enamel that cannot be replicated again. Patients may experience a small amount of sensitivity following the enamel removal.
But even with the disadvantages, customers rave about the confidence boost they feel with a full-set of veneers that upgrades their already beautiful smile. If you’d like to talk more about the affordable pricing for veneers in Roanoke, VA, call Irby Dentistry today.

Factors that influence the cost of dental veneers
Since there’s a wide range of pricing for each specific type of veneer you may be asking- what can make those prices so different? Well, each set of teeth is unique, so there are certain factors that can increase or decrease pricing. Obviously the more veneers you need, the more you will pay, with a full set being the most expensive. Someone with a lot of teeth showing will pay more for a full set than someone with more lip coverage and less visible teeth. Also, since the mouth is so unique each veneer must be carefully customized to fit. The amount of customization needed can increase the price of the veneer. You also need healthy teeth and gum to receive veneers. If you require dental maintenance like filings or gum treatment, this will increase the price.
How can I pay for full mouth veneer?
There are a few ways you can pay for your veneers. Start first with seeing if your insurance will cover your procedure. Usually a whole full set is not covered, but insurances sometimes offer partial payment if veneers are deemed medically necessary. If insurance denies your claim, don’t fret! Many dentists offer payment plans and financing to support you through your process. You can also seek out a dentist that offers their own savings plans. At Irby Dental, we offer our Dental Wellness Club as an alternative to insurance. Not only can you save on regular dental maintenance, but you receive 15% savings on major dental procedures including veneers.
Does insurance pay for veneers?
This can depend on varying factors! While it’s rare that insurances cover the full price of the veneers, some cases can receive partial coverage. If you are doing veneers for cosmetic reasons, do not anticipate any aid from insurance. But, if you have a case that is of medical need, such as with a broken tooth, injury or decay, insurance may offer partial support for veneers. It’s important you take a close look at your dental plan to see if pre-approval is needed and what alternative procedures insurances require you to undergo before you receive veneers.
The process of getting veneers: What’s included in the price of a full set of veneers?
Although the process may vary based on your dentistry, we will give you the rundown of what we do at Irby Dentistry so you can know what to expect when you head in for your veneer procedure.
- Consultation: First, you’ll come into the office to get a full x-ray of your teeth while also discussing your plans for your personal veneers including the amount of veneers you need, the type of veneer and the shading. Once you’re decided what you need, the dentist will take a mold of your mouth that will be used when crafting your veneers.
- Preparing your teeth: Dentists will first remove a small layer of enamel so there is room for the veneers. If your veneers are not yet ready the day your enamel is removed you may receive temporary veneers.
- Bonding Time: Once your veneers are complete you will come to the office so the dentist can check to make sure the veneers are your perfect match. After, the veneers will be secured and bonded with a strong dental adhesive.
- Come back for a check up: We will call you back in to ensure that your veneers fit properly and deal with any issues you may have. From there- you’re all set with your beautiful new smile!
Consultation before and after, x-rays, molds and the veneers will all be included in the overall price of the full set of veneers.
Full mouth veneers aftercare: Timing and Tips
Decided you’re going to go with the full set and want to be prepared for what’s to come? We’ve got you covered. These helpful tips will ensure your veneers last their entire lifespan in top notch quality.
- Watch what you eat right after: For a few days you should avoid hard foods and be aware that you may be sensitive to anything extremely hot or cold. This will go away after your mouth gets used to the veneers.
- Stick to a thorough daily oral routine: Brush twice and floss daily just as you did without the veneers. You’ll want your teeth to stay in top condition by using products that your dentist recommends for veneers.
- Avoid your old bad habits: If you want your veneers to stay bright and shiny, you should avoid the things you did to make your old smile decay. Though porcelain veneers are highly resistant to staining, you should attempt to steer clear of old habits that can damage your teeth like drinking an excess amount of coffee, biting your nails, or chewing ice.
- Keep coming to your dental visits: We want to help maintain your teeth! Scheduling visits two times a year for routine cleaning ensures that your teeth are in good health and dentists can check for any issues with your veneers.
Any investment you make in your health has to be maintained. To get the long-lasting benefits of a full set of veneers make sure you make dental hygiene a top priority.
