Premium Materials for Premium Results

Not all veneers are created equal. As a leading cosmetic dentist in Nashville, TN, Dr. Newman offers three pressed glass-ceramic brands and will recommend the right one for your smile at your consultation.

MAC

MAC veneers are two to three times more durable than traditional stacked porcelain, which means less wear, fewer repairs, and a longer lifespan. Placement follows the same trusted preparation process as conventional veneers.

IPS Empress

IPS Empress® is a leucite-reinforced ceramic prized for its lifelike appearance. It comes in a wide range of shades and layering options, so Dr. Newman can tune each veneer to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

IPS e.max

IPS e.max® is pressed over lithium disilicate, a high-strength ceramic. It is the option Dr. Newman often recommends when a patient needs exceptional durability without giving up a natural look.

Veneers Cost and Financing

Porcelain veneers at our Nashville, TN, practice range from $1,750 to $2,750 per tooth. Your exact price depends on how many teeth we treat, the porcelain brand you choose, and the complexity of your smile design.

When patients ask why veneer pricing varies so widely between practices, Dr. Newman points to three things: the dentist's experience, the quality of the lab, and the final result. A veneer is a hand-crafted restoration, and the artistry behind a natural-looking smile costs more than a generic shell.

Because veneers are an elective cosmetic treatment, insurance does not cover them. To keep your new smile within reach, we accept financing through CareCredit®, which offers monthly payment plans with little to no interest, depending on your credit. You can find a complete pricing breakdown on our veneers cost page.

What Are Porcelain Veneers?

porcelain veneer

Porcelain veneers are thin shells of dental ceramic bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. They conceal flaws like stains, chips, and gaps while bringing symmetry to your whole smile.

Porcelain earns its place at the front of your mouth because it behaves like enamel. Both share a subtle translucency that lets light pass through, which is why a well-made veneer is so difficult to spot. The ceramic can also be matched to virtually any shade. Some patients choose a shade that blends with their surrounding teeth, while others whiten first and match their veneers to a brighter smile. If that appeals to you, we can pair your treatment with professional teeth whitening.

Veneers treat the anterior teeth, the ones that show when you smile. For back teeth that absorb heavy chewing force, we recommend dental crowns instead.

Built to Last a Decade or More 

Durability is one of the strongest arguments for choosing porcelain. With proper care, you can expect your veneers to last 10 years or more.

Your habits largely determine how long they last. Patients who brush and floss daily, keep their six-month checkups, and avoid chewing ice, pens, and fingernails routinely have the best longevity. The pressed glass-ceramic brands we offer were chosen specifically because they hold up to daily life as well as laboratory testing.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Veneers?

Most adults unhappy with the appearance of their front teeth are candidates, and an event on the calendar, like a wedding or graduation, is a common reason patients call us. During your consultation at our Nashville, TN, office, Dr. Newman or Dr. Thomas Underwood will confirm that you meet a few requirements:

Healthy Teeth and Gums

Cavities, gum disease, or significant bite problems need treatment before cosmetic work begins. We can restore your oral health first, then move ahead with your veneers.

Enough Enamel

Because preparation removes a thin layer of enamel, you need enough healthy enamel to support the bond and protect the tooth underneath.

Managed Teeth Grinding

Porcelain is strong, but chronic grinding can fracture it. If you grind your teeth at night, we can fabricate a custom oral appliance to protect your investment while you sleep.

Realistic Expectations

Prepared teeth will always need some form of restoration, and veneers are eventually replaced. Patients comfortable with that commitment are consistently our happiest.

The Veneer Process From Consultation to Placement

Your new smile takes shape over two one-hour visits spaced about a week or two apart. Here is what to expect:

Consultation

Dr. Newman examines your smile, reviews before-and-after cases with you, and helps you choose between MAC, Empress, and e.max.

Preparation

After numbing the area, your dentist removes an eggshell-thin layer of enamel so the finished veneers sit flush and look natural.

Impressions

We capture detailed impressions and precise shade specifications, then place attractive temporaries to protect your teeth.

Fabrication

Ceramic artists at Macstudio craft your veneers to Dr. Newman's specifications, typically within one to two weeks.

Placement

Your dentist checks the fit, makes final adjustments, and cements your veneers in place. You leave with simple aftercare instructions.

How Veneers Compare to Bonding and No-Prep Brands

Dental bonding is the most common alternative we discuss. It is reversible, more affordable, and finished in a single visit, which makes it a smart fix for a single small chip. Porcelain outperforms bonding on strength, stain resistance, and lifespan, so patients investing in a full smile transformation usually choose veneers.

You may also have seen ads for LUMINEERS®, a no-prep brand. Skipping preparation sounds appealing, but the result is often a thicker, more opaque tooth that is harder to keep clean. The three pressed-ceramic brands we offer deliver slimmer profiles and more natural-looking results.
