This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I would like to know the cost of veneers and if it is possible to only cover a few teeth or if the whole top or bottom would have to be done.

What are the effects of veneers, and what are the advantages and disadvantages?

Please help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Veneers can be given on all front, upper, and lower teeth to get uniform whiteness on all teeth. Otherwise, it can also be used for a specific tooth if it is discolored. Veneers offer excellent aesthetic appearances as they cover the visible part of the teeth. They can sometimes get dislodged if improper biting force is applied to them.

The other option is to give full crowns over the teeth, which over-whitens the teeth, not just the labial surface. The cost may vary according to material quality and different clinics.

I hope it helps.

Thank you.
