Veneers in Medellín
Veneers change the color, shape and size of the teeth people see when you smile. We offer two materials: composite resin, sculpted directly on your teeth, and porcelain (E-max), made in a dental lab. Here's how they differ and exactly what they cost.
Composite veneerfrom $250.000 COP / tooth
Porcelain veneer (E-max)from $1.000.000 COP / tooth
What veneers can do, and what they can't
Veneers are great for
- Teeth that are stained and don't respond to whitening
- Small chips, worn edges and uneven lengths
- Small gaps between front teeth
- Changing the overall shape and proportions of your smile
Veneers are not the answer for
- Cavities or gum disease, which we treat first
- Crooked or crowded teeth: clear aligners often give a better result
- A tooth that is badly broken: that usually needs a crown
- A missing tooth: see implants or bridges
Composite or porcelain?
Both look natural when done well. The difference is how they're made, how long they keep their shine, and the price.
| Composite resin | Porcelain (E-max) | |
|---|---|---|
| How it's made | Sculpted by hand directly on your tooth | Made in a dental lab, then bonded to your tooth |
| Stains | Can pick up stains over time; polishing helps | Highly stain-resistant |
| Repairs | Easy to touch up in the chair | A chipped veneer is usually replaced |
| Visits | Often finished in one visit | At least two, with lab time in between |
| How long they last | Up to 3–4 years | Up to 15 years |
| Price per tooth | from $250.000 | from $1.000.000 |
What changes the price
- How many teeth. Prices are per tooth. Most smiles use between 8 and 10 veneers on the upper teeth, depending on how wide you smile.
- The material. Composite or porcelain, as in the table above.
- What needs fixing first. Cavities, old fillings or gum problems are treated before veneers and quoted separately.
Good to know
- Whiten first, if you want to. Veneers don't change color with whitening, so if you'd like your other teeth lighter, we whiten before choosing the veneer shade.
- How long it takes. Composite is often done in one visit. Porcelain needs at least two visits with lab time in between; your plan includes the exact dates.
