Does Insurance Cover Veneers?

At A Smile Spa, our patients have access to comprehensive, state-of-the-art dental treatments, including cosmetic dentistry with porcelain veneers. Porcelain veneers are durable and provide a naturally luminous appearance that looks just like natural teeth. With dental veneers, you can correct minor cosmetic concerns or completely makeover the appearance of your smile with an entire set of dental veneers. 

Since dental veneers are primarily a cosmetic treatment, meaning they are not typically considered a restorative treatment, the cost associated with dental veneers can be a big factor when our patients decide whether dental veneers are the right treatment for them. 

How Much Do Dental Veneers Cost?

The cost of dental veneers can vary significantly, depending on the number of veneers being placed, the teeth on which they are being placed, and the treatment materials being used. On average, dental veneers range from about $800 to $2,500 per tooth. 

Does Dental Insurance Cover Veneers?

Most insurance plans do not include coverage for dental veneers, since they are typically considered a purely cosmetic and elective dental treatment. There are, however, some exceptions to this rule:

• Insurance Add-Ons and Riders - Some dental insurance plans include riders and add-ons that include some coverage for cosmetic dental treatments. 
• Medical Necessity - There are some extenuating circumstances and exemptions when dental insurance might cover dental veneers, if they can be proven medically necessary. Cases such as these might include situations when veneers are recommended as a result of an injury or accident that necessitated extensive reconstructive dental work, or when they are needed as a result of the impact of a prescription medication. 

Generally, dental and medical insurance plans do not provide coverage for dental veneers. However, since this can vary on a case-by-case basis, patients should check with their insurance providers to ensure they have a clear understanding of their available coverage.

Dental veneers are a powerful cosmetic treatment. With the applications of dental veneers, we can make a major impact on your smile's appearance, symmetry, balance, and surrounding features. 

Dental veneers, however, are not the only treatment available that can take years off of your appearance, improve the look of your smile, enhance your features, and boost your confidence. In some cases, treatment with professional teeth whitening, dental crowns, or dental bonding might be more appropriate, affordable, and advantageous, depending on the patient's individual treatment needs and smile goals. 

Our dentist, Dr. Henry, works individually with each patient to examine their teeth and gums, assess their oral health, and gain a clear understanding of their treatment goals and preferences to provide them with a variety of personalized treatment options designed to help them realize their smile dreams (within their budget) while supporting better oral health.
