Ideally straight and snow-white teeth by nature are very rare; most often the natural color of the enamel is yellowish, darkening even more over time. And improper oral care and various negative factors can lead to such defects as unevenness of the enamel layer, curvature of individual units, and chips. You can restore the beauty of your smile in different ways, and one of them is the use of special overlays on the surface of the teeth - veneers.
Veneers - this is the name of one of the developments in aesthetic dentistry, designed to help recreate the external aesthetics of teeth. In the article we will talk in detail about what veneers are, what types of microprostheses exist, in what cases their use is indicated and advisable, what is the price of veneers at the Vanstom dental clinic in Moscow.

How to choose the right veneers based on price and quality
Before we give advice on the right choice of veneers, let's find out what they are? In dentistry, veneers are miniature prosthetic plates installed on the surface of teeth to restore the beautiful tone or shape of dental units. Typically, restoration work with structures is carried out specifically in the smile zone and when it is impossible to restore the whiteness and evenness of teeth using other methods of aesthetic dentistry. Veneers and their fixation on dental surfaces are the most gentle prosthetic technology, but they are not the most inexpensive for the price of 1 veneer.
Using veneers is one of the fastest ways to restore the attractiveness of your smile. Veneers are visually impossible to distinguish from real teeth and their use can solve the problem even with significant defects in the dental surface. However, in order for the procedure for installing veneers to give the desired positive result, they need to be selected correctly, and this can be quite difficult, since modern dentistry offers a wide range of products from this group, differing from each other in raw materials, technical characteristics and price.
In order to make an informed choice, it will be useful, even before visiting the dentist’s office, to get acquainted with the different options for veneers, find out their features, and then choose a specific type of veneer that is optimal for you in terms of the final result of microprosthetics and the price.
Ceramic veneers: price for 1 tooth in Moscow
1. Ceramic veneers. These veneers are made from zirconium dioxide and medical porcelain and are characterized by extreme strength, color fastness, and durability. Porcelain-zirconium veneers are visually indistinguishable from natural teeth. They have minimal thickness - only 0.5 millimeters. The price of veneers for ceramic teeth at Vanstom dentistry in Moscow (Baumanskaya metro station) is from 14,000 rubles (for 1 veneer). You can get detailed advice from the clinic’s specialists!
Composite veneers: price for 1 tooth in Moscow
2. Composite veneers are one of the most affordable variations, which are used less and less in modern dentistry. The drop in demand for veneers made from composites is explained by a significant number of product shortcomings, including low aesthetics and minimal useful life. But restorative procedures with composite veneers are carried out using a gentle method and quickly. The type of dental veneers under consideration is also attractive because of its affordable price. The cost of one composite veneer in our Vanstom clinic in Moscow is from 7,050 rubles.
Advantages and disadvantages
Every year, the veneering procedure becomes more popular in dentistry. Its demand is due to certain advantages:
- The product covers all tooth surfaces, which minimizes the risk of accidental chips.
- High reliability of the design, which is achieved due to the use of modern materials.
- There is no need to remove the nerve. The exception is cases when inflammatory processes occur in the canals.
- The ability to correct malocclusion or crooked teeth in the early stages without the use of various orthopedic systems or braces that disrupt the aesthetics of the smile.
- The absence of metal elements promotes biological compatibility with tissues. In addition, the risk of allergic reactions is minimized.
- Possibility to choose products to match natural teeth.
- Long period of operation. High-quality systems last 10-15 years.
- The structures are resistant to deformation.
- The color does not change during the entire service life.
- Protecting tooth enamel from damage, exposure to pathological microflora and other negative factors.
- You can install structures both on one tooth and on the entire row.
This procedure has certain disadvantages. Some of them:
- Limited product life.
- The presence of composite materials in the composition that tend to darken and are excessively brittle.
- Increased requirements for oral hygiene.
- High price of products even when installed on 1 tooth.
- Various contraindications.
- There is a risk of changes in diction and discomfort if the teeth are seriously crooked.
- The need to handle veneers with care, as injuries can break the product.

Lumineers: price for 1 tooth in Moscow
3. Lumineers. A separate type of veneers, which is popularly called “Hollywood veneers.” These microprostheses are ultra-thin and ultra-strong; their fixation does not require preliminary grinding of the enamel, which has a positive effect on the health of the teeth and oral cavity in general. But at the same time, Lumineers are the most expensive veneer option available.
Prices for ultra-thin lumineers start at 80,000.
The main difference between lumineers and conventional veneers is the use of special technologies in their production. The use of innovative methods partly explains the high price of lumineers. The finished Hollywood veneer is thin (its thickness does not exceed 0.2 millimeters), and perfectly matches the natural shade of the patient’s tooth enamel. Separately, it is worth noting the incredible strength of the veneer - its useful life is 20 years or more.

Indications and contraindications for the installation of veneers
Like any other dental procedure, the installation of veneers has indications and contraindications that are important to consider. Restoration with veneers is recommended by specialists in the following cases:
1. Fluorosis and erosive destruction of the natural enamel layer of teeth, defects in which significant destruction of dentin is observed. Fillings are not able to solve these problems, but veneers will eliminate them perfectly, making them invisible to others. Of course, the price of the service will be higher than the price for conventional filling, but the result will be more aesthetically pleasing and more durable.
2. Crowding of teeth, curvature, incorrect position of units in rows, abnormal tooth shape, significant gaps between dental units, chips, fillings on the surfaces of teeth darkened over time.
In case of pronounced yellowing of the enamel or a change in its shade after depulpation of a dental unit. Veneers will help restore the aesthetics of your smile.
Veneers can help out in situations where other methods have not given the desired effect, in particular teeth whitening. Their installation cannot be carried out in case of pathological abrasion of the enamel, bruxism, significant adentia, or malocclusion. It is not recommended to use veneers if you have large fillings on the inside of the tooth.
Who are veneers contraindicated for?
People who have the following diseases and problems are not recommended to get implants.
• The presence of a dental anomaly “bruxism” is a forceful clenching of the jaws during sleep.
• Insufficient amount of tooth enamel.
• Bite pathology, meaning straight, deep bite.
• Caries and its complications.
• A group of diseases that are characterized by inflammatory processes - gingivitis, periodontal disease, etc. These diseases are a temporary contraindication. After treatment, the structures are successfully installed.
• Severe tooth fragility, or the presence of a bulky filling.
Methods for making ceramic veneers
Ceramic plates are produced using layer-by-layer technology or injection molding. With the layer-by-layer method, the porcelain mass is applied in stages, layer by layer, and then fired to increase its strength and durability. With injection molding, veneers are made under high pressure and temperature, which allows you to obtain finished prostheses of increased strength. If you want to get a reliable and durable result of artistic restoration, we recommend choosing cast veneers.
Both product options are aesthetic and durable, but the useful life of pressed ceramic veneers is significantly longer. The price of porcelain veneers is high and can vary depending on the type of material used in the manufacturing process.
Installation process
Regardless of the purpose of installation and the type of overlays, the procedure is carried out according to the same algorithm. Main stages:
- Preparatory activities. This includes diagnosing teeth for the presence of fillings that require replacement. This is necessary not only to increase the service life of the products, but also to improve the adhesion of the veneer to the filling material.
- Determining the shade of the overlays. For this purpose, a special scale is used, and the orthodontist considers possible options taking into account the patient’s wishes.
- Enamel polishing. Immediately before installing the onlays, you need to remove a layer 0.5-0.7 mm thick from the outer part of the teeth. The material of old fillings also needs to be ground, the thickness is determined by the dentist depending on the specific case. For high-quality installation, in some situations it is permissible to remove 1.5 mm of enamel.
- Taking impressions for subsequent sending to a dental laboratory.
- Installation of a temporary plastic structure. This is necessary to protect the ground teeth from external irritants.
- The manufacturing process in the laboratory does not involve patient participation. It consists of producing a plaster structure of a certain area of the jaw based on casts, which allows you to make veneers, taking into account all the individual characteristics of a particular maxillofacial apparatus. The production technology depends on the specific material.
- Pre-installation of the product on a special paste. This is a very important step, because different drugs differ in color. The specialist must select them so that the structure acquires the desired color. In most cases, several types of products are mixed so that the products do not differ from natural dental units.
- Final fastening with cement. This is the final stage of work, after which it will be impossible to correct the color or shape of the structure.
Veneers are a fairly simple way to get a beautiful smile. All design flaws and contraindications for use should be taken into account. It is important to note that if a person decides to install dental plates, it will be impossible to return everything back, because the ground units require constant protection with third-party materials. In addition, you should understand that installing veneers is an expensive procedure that not every average person can afford.
Specifics of the production of composite veneers
The easiest way to make composite veneers is to apply a special composition to the surface of the patient’s teeth right in the dentist’s office. During the procedure, the doctor first prepares the enamel coating of the tooth for manipulation by removing a thin layer from it, and then applies the composite in layers to the treated surface. If you are interested in a low price for restoring teeth with veneers, composite structures will be the optimal solution.
Composite veneers are also made from an individual impression of the patient’s teeth, which is taken during an examination in the dentist’s office. An impression is made of the teeth that have been ground for the onlay, and then the technician models the veneer using it. Veneers made from an individual impression are stronger than overlays created by layer-by-layer application.
What happens to the teeth under the structure?
When the stitching is carried out correctly, and the design of the micro prosthesis is installed correctly, then nothing happens. However, if a plate, for example a composite, is not fixed tightly, caries or plaque accumulation may appear in such areas.
In case of plate defects, it is necessary to restore the micro prosthesis.
The downside is that it is impossible to remove the veneers; only the structure is replaced.
Most dentists provide a one-year warranty after installing the onlays.
Review of the pros and cons of different veneers, comparison of prices for microprostheses
To make a choice in favor of a specific veneer option, you should thoroughly understand the advantages and disadvantages of products made from different materials. In the process of selecting designs, price plays a much less significant role than the performance characteristics of the veneers themselves. If we talk about ceramic veneers, they compare favorably with composite microprostheses in the following characteristics:
- High aesthetics. Veneers do not change color under the influence of external factors and look as natural as possible.
- Increased resistance of ceramic veneers to wear, longer useful life. Ceramic veneers do not require replacement for 10 years or more.
- Hypoallergenic and biocompatible with natural tissues of the oral cavity.
However, the production of ceramic veneers takes much more time; they require preliminary grinding of the natural enamel coating; if the microprosthesis breaks, it will have to be replaced with a new veneer. In terms of price, porcelain microprostheses will also not be a democratic solution.
Porcelain veneers
Porcelain plates are visually indistinguishable from the enamel of a normal tooth. Therefore, ordinary people will never guess about the installed records.
The advantages of ceramic crowns are that they are resistant to stress and practically do not stain.
Porcelain microprostheses are made using two methods:
1. Pressed ceramics - the material is applied in layers, then each layer is fired. In this case, the teeth are not ground down.
2. Pressed material – ceramic material is pressed under pressure and then fired at high temperatures. This method is used to achieve the strongest possible structure.
How to make porcelain veneers is decided by the doctor, based on the individual characteristics of the patient.
Plus, the service life of ceramic restorations is more than 20 years. If you decide to put veneers or crowns on your teeth, follow hygiene procedures.
Price of ceramic veneers for teeth
The cost of ultra-thin ceramic dental veneers will depend on the raw material used for their production - the type of dental porcelain. The more expensive the cost of the ceramic mass, the higher the price of one finished veneer. However, the increased prices for porcelain veneers are fully compensated by their strength, reliability, durability, and excellent aesthetics. The average price of a ceramic veneer for one tooth ranges from 14,000 to 100,000 rubles.
A consultation with an orthopedist at the Vanstom clinic will help you find out the exact price of the service and porcelain veneer.
Zirconium veneers: price for 1 tooth
Microprostheses made of zirconium dioxide are in high demand among patients, as they provide an excellent result for the artistic restoration of a smile and at the same time belong to the budget price segment. The price of 1 zirconium plate starts from 30 thousand rubles. But this is the minimum price indicated by clinics in their price lists. More realistic prices for high-quality and durable zirconium veneers - from 50 thousand rubles per plate.
At an affordable cost, zirconium prostheses have excellent performance characteristics. They have maximum resistance to mechanical damage and chips, but it is important to note that these properties are possessed only by high-quality zirconium veneers, produced with strict adherence to the technological process. Therefore, if zirconium structures are offered at an excessively low price, this is a reason to think about their quality!
At Vanstom you will find the best value for money on zirconium veneers! Prices for composite veneers
What materials are they made from?
Overlay removable veneers are made of polymers, silicone, polypropylene, and plastic in light shades. These are inexpensive materials, they are easy to process and can be easily painted in enamel colors. But we must understand that even in professional dentistry such materials are used only on a temporary basis, because they have low performance characteristics. The materials are softer and more fragile than those used for real microprostheses. They also have irregularities and pores on the surface, into which dietary fiber and dyes become clogged.

In terms of cost, composite veneers will be the most inexpensive option; the exact cost of making an onlay for one tooth will depend on the production method. The most expensive is a composite veneer created from an individual impression - you will have to pay 10 thousand rubles or more for it.
If you want to save on the cost of installing composite veneers, you can resort to restoration with direct (layer-by-layer) onlays, which are created directly on the patient’s teeth during a visit to the orthodontist. However, cost savings will ultimately be questionable: direct veneers are neither aesthetically pleasing nor durable, and often change their color under the influence of external factors.

Price of lumineers or Hollywood veneers
The most expensive type of veneers are ultra-thin lumineers. The high cost of microprostheses is due to the expensive material for their production, but the use of Hollywood veneers will make it possible to obtain a long-lasting result of the restoration of the smile area and will not require first removing the natural enamel layer.
Veneers of this type are also installed in the shortest possible time - just two or three visits to a specialist’s office are enough. Moreover, if necessary, veneers can be easily removed, do not cause discomfort to the patient when worn, and do not change color over time or under the influence of external factors. For these reasons, Hollywood veneers are the choice of pop and film stars and world-famous politicians. The cost of one lumineer per tooth is from 80,000 rubles.

Our clinic offers patients innovative methods of artistic dental restoration at affordable prices and always of impeccable quality!
Cost of the procedure
An important aspect is the price of veneers. The cost of one tooth is calculated individually in each specific case and depends on the material from which the onlay is made. The reputation of the orthodontic clinic and the qualifications of the specialist who performs the installation are of great importance.
Price for 1 tooth
Therapeutic designs are also called direct; they are considered cheaper and accessible to most segments of the population. Installation is carried out in one step using simple composites. The procedure is similar to filling. If your teeth need treatment, you will need to visit the orthodontist several times.
The price of one pad depends on the place of residence of the person. So, in Moscow you will have to pay about 5.5 thousand rubles for one veneer. In other regions of Russia, the cost fluctuates around 3 thousand rubles. You can save money on aesthetic dentures in public dentistry or by using promotional offers from private companies.
Prices for orthopedic products vary greatly. This depends not only on the reputation of the medical institution and place of residence, but also on the surface of the dental structures that need to be processed and covered with a plate. Materials also need to be taken into account:
- Glass ceramics - 17 thousand rubles.
- Lumineers - from 32 thousand rubles.
- Ceramics - from 13 thousand rubles.
- Zirconium overlays - from 23 thousand rubles.
At the same time, lumineers and zirconium veneers are not installed in every region due to their high cost. Ceramic structures are the most in demand, so there is a lot of competition for such products.
In some situations, after installing veneers, your gums begin to hurt. There is a possibility that some violations were made during the procedure or the product was installed incorrectly. If discomfort occurs, you should consult a specialist.
Front teeth
Due to the fact that the veneering procedure is necessary to correct the aesthetic characteristics of a smile, veneers are often installed on the 8 lower and 10 upper teeth. In addition, sometimes some elements with damaged enamel or chips are subject to adjustment.
That is why the clinic cannot immediately say specifically how much it costs to install veneers on the front teeth. The price directly depends on the characteristics discussed above (materials, clinic, etc.).
