I've been thinking about getting porcelain veneers, but I'm afraid they might be too expensive for me. I wouldn't mind getting composite veneers if they were cheaper...even if they are of lesser quality. I don't know much about them. Any information about procedure and cost would be helpful.

They last for a very long time and come with a lifetime warranty so you never have to worry. You are looking between $800 and $1,000 a tooth and they can do wonders for your smile. They are used to whiten teeth, fix gaps, cracked teeth, etc. Overall i have heard great things about this product and i plan to get them in the future. Hope this helps.

ELLE,
COMPOSITS STAIN OVER TIME BUT, ARE MUCH EASIER TO REPAIR IF THEY SHOULD BREAK.
THE COST IS RELATIVELY EQUAL AS THE WAY TO PREPARE FOR COMPOSITE VS. PORCELAIN VENEERS IS THE SAME.
THE DENTIST CHARGES MORE FOR PORCELAIN BECAUSE HIS LAB BILLS T MAKE THEM ARE HIGHER.
IN MY OPINION CONSIDER BRACES.
WHY?
NOTHING TO POTENTIALLY BREAK OR FRACTURE.
FABULOUS RESULTS WHEN FINISHED.
NO SHOTS OR ANESTHETIC AND NO DRILLING.
