Dental Veneers

Dental Veneers

A Dental veneer is a thin layer of either porcelain, composite or similar material that is bonded over a tooth surface to protect the tooth or to improve the esthetics. A direct veneer is a composite restorative material that is directly bonded by our Highlands Ranch dentist on your tooth.  An indirect dental veneer is fabricated by the dental laboratory and later bonded to the tooth.  Highlands Ranch dentists Dr. James DeLapp Dr. H. Candace DeLapp, and Dr. Sarah Parsons provide cosmetic dental services including dental veneers to their patients in the Lone Tree, Castle Pines, Parker, Denver, Greenwood Village and Ken Caryl areas of Colorado.

Why dental veneers?

Dental veneers are one of many important materials for our Highlands Ranch cosmetic dentists. A veneer may be used to correct some type of problem on on tooth or a used as a set to correct some type of esthetic issue. This may involve misshaped teeth to darkly colored teeth that cannot be bleached.

Cost of Dental veneers in Highlands Ranch

Cost of dental veneers depends up how difficult  the cosmetic solution is. Typically porcelain indirect dental veneers run $1500 each while composite dental veneers are approximately one-half of the cost.

Options or alternatives to dental veneers

On of the goals of our Highlands Ranch dentists is to explain your option and alternatives to dental veneers.  In the past the only way to correct some type of dental imperfection was to cover the tooth with a dental crown. Options include:

  • No dental treatment
  • Orthodontics (traditional)
  • Invisalign orthodontics
  • Dental whitening one-hour (Luma)
  • Take home tray dental whitening

Combined dental treatment to address complex esthetic issues

There are occasion when no one treatment will get the desired results i.e no one treatment fits all.  Most typically this involves a combination of orthodontics and dental veneers. In other situations dental implants may be an option to address esthetic concerns.
