Getting Dental Veneers Online

I have some spots on my teeth and want to get a nicer smile. While I understand that porcelain veneers with my dentist would be better, they are pretty pricey. I’m wondering if it would be a good idea to get those online dental veneers?

Dear Alex,

It would help if I knew what type of spots you were talking about. If they are recent white spots that have turned up, they are likely decalcification spots, which are precursors to tooth decay. You want to make sure you are getting adequate care for your teeth in addition to improving their appearance.

The only kind of dental veneers you can get online are removable. The best brand of removable, dental veneers is snap-on smile. However, they do have to be done under the supervision of a dentist. They do get some complaints from patients who are disappointed with the results. I have found, however, that as long as a dentist lowers the patient’s expectations they end up satisfied. They will have an okay smile, not a stunning one. These are made from acrylic, not porcelain so the results will not be comparable.

The biggest problem with trying to do something like this online is the complications you run into without the help of a dentist. Not only will you have a lower quality result, but you might end up in pain.

These appliances don’t come in as a perfect fit. Your dentist has to make adjustments to the device when it arrives to ensure it fits both securely and comfortably.

If you want to get removable veneers, I recommend going with Snap-on Smile through your dentist. In the meantime, start saving up for something that can provide you with a stunning smile such as porcelain veneers.
