The label on a quote tells you less than the lines beneath it. Check the same material, the same number of teeth, and the same design and shade approach, and make sure that anything not included is stated rather than assumed.
If a line is vague, ask the office to define it. Reputable practices are used to explaining their quotes, and a written breakdown protects both sides.
- Look for items listed as 'additional' or 'if needed'
- Ask what could change the total and by how much
- Confirm the warranty in writing
- Keep a copy of every estimate you receive
How a smile makeover is planned
Good cosmetic dentistry starts with a discussion of what you want to change and a check of gum and bite health. Many dentists provide a wax-up or a mock-up so you can preview the shape and size before any enamel is touched.
The number of veneers changes the total. Some smiles need only a few teeth treated, while others involve a full row of upper teeth. Ask which teeth the plan includes and why, and whether any need whitening or orthodontics first.
