Long Island Veneers Cost, Financing, & Insurance

What Affects the Cost of Veneers

Veneer pricing is not one-size-fits-all. We customize each treatment plan, so your total cost reflects the specific details of your case. From the number of teeth involved to any additional dental work you may need, several factors come into play.

• Number of Veneers: Some patients only want to treat one or two teeth, while others opt for several or even a full-mouth transformation. The number of veneers needed to achieve your desired look plays a major role in the total cost.
• Material Choice: Porcelain veneers are more durable, natural-looking, and stain-resistant than composite. We prefer porcelain for most cases because of its longevity and ability to mimic real enamel.
• Complexity of Your Case: If your teeth are worn down, misaligned, or uneven in size or shape, we may need to plan and customize your treatment more carefully. More complex cases can affect both the overall timeline and cost.
• Additional Dental Work: We may recommend procedures like whitening, fillings, or gum reshaping before placing your veneers. We factor these additional treatments into your total cost and review everything with you in advance.
• Expertise of Your Dentist: Cosmetic dentists with advanced training and experience in veneers may charge more, but that expertise can lead to better results. A highly skilled provider ensures your veneers look natural and fit comfortably.

These factors vary from person to person, which is why we review everything with you during your consultation. That way, you’ll know exactly what to expect.

What’s Included in the Price

When you choose veneers at Long Island Veneers, the total cost typically covers more than just the veneers themselves. We include the steps and services needed to plan, place, and follow up on your treatment for a smooth, complete experience.

Initial Consultation: Your first visit includes an evaluation of your teeth, a discussion about your goals, and a personalized treatment plan. This sets the foundation for your veneers and ensures the results match what you’re looking for.

Digital Imaging and Planning: We use photos or digital scans to assess your teeth and help design your veneers. This allows for precise planning based on your unique dental structure.

Tooth Preparation: We carefully reshape the surface of your teeth to make room for the veneers and ensure a natural fit. We use local anesthesia during this step to keep you completely comfortable throughout the process.

Temporary Veneers: After we prepare your teeth, we place temporary veneers to protect them and give you a preview of your new look. You’ll wear these while we craft your final veneers.

Second Appointment: During this visit, we place your final veneers, make any necessary adjustments, and polish them for a natural finish. We check the fit, appearance, and bite before sealing everything into place.

We tailor every veneer treatment to your needs and make sure you understand exactly what’s included before we get started. If you have questions about pricing or what to expect, we’re happy to walk you through it during your consultation.

Financing Options for Veneers

We know veneers can be a meaningful investment, and for many patients, it’s important to have payment options that offer flexibility. You shouldn’t have to put off treatment because of cost. That’s why we provide financing solutions that help you move forward with care on your terms.

At Long Island Veneers, we accept CareCredit and also offer in-office payment plans for those who qualify. Both options allow you to spread out the cost of treatment so you don’t have to pay everything at once.

We’ll go over your payment options in detail during your consultation and help you decide what works best based on your goals, treatment plan, and budget.

CareCredit

CareCredit is one of the most widely used financing options in the healthcare and dental field. It functions like a credit card specifically for medical and dental expenses, and many of our patients use it to finance their veneers.

With CareCredit, you can break up the cost of your veneers into manageable monthly payments. There are different types of plans available, including short-term promotional plans that offer zero interest if paid in full within a certain period, as well as longer-term plans with fixed interest rates.

The application process is fast and can be done online or in our office. Many people receive a decision within minutes. If you’re interested, we can walk you through the steps and even help you apply before your first treatment appointment.

CareCredit gives you the freedom to get the care you want now and pay over time, without compromising on quality or delaying your results.

In Office Financing

We also offer in-office payment plans for qualifying patients who prefer to finance directly through our practice. These plans are ideal if you’d rather not apply through a third-party lender or want to explore simpler financing options.

Our in-office plans typically involve dividing the total cost of treatment into a series of payments made over several months. The number of payments and structure of the plan will depend on your treatment details and what works best for your situation.

We’ll simply review your treatment plan with you, discuss your payment preferences, and let you know what options are available. Everything is transparent and clearly outlined up front, so you know exactly what to expect.

If you’re considering veneers but are concerned about cost, we encourage you to ask us about in-office financing during your consultation. We’re happy to work with you to find a plan that fits your needs.

When Insurance May Cover Veneers

Most insurance plans don’t offer full coverage for veneers since they’re typically considered cosmetic. However, you may be able to use partial insurance benefits toward the treatment, depending on why you are getting veneers.

If your treatment has a restorative purpose, certain aspects may qualify for some reimbursement.

Here are a few situations where insurance may help cover part of your veneer treatment:

• Repairing damage from trauma: If an accident or injury chipped or broke a tooth, we may place a veneer to restore function and protect it. In some cases, insurance may provide partial coverage.
• Correcting structural issues: When we use a veneer to fix a crack or reinforce a weakened tooth, your insurance plan might cover part of the cost if it’s considered medically necessary.
• Replacing previous dental work: If you’re replacing an older veneer or bonding that insurance originally covered, your current plan may contribute to the new restoration.
• Tooth wear or erosion: If you’re experiencing sensitivity or functional issues from enamel erosion, veneers may be considered part of a restorative treatment plan rather than purely cosmetic.
• Combination with Other Treatments: If veneers are part of a larger treatment plan that includes medically necessary procedures like crowns or fillings, insurance may help with those components.

Insurance coverage is never guaranteed when it comes to veneers, but we’re here to help you find out. Our team can review your benefits, provide the necessary documentation, and check with your provider to see if any part of your care may qualify.
