Have you ever gotten an unbelievable bargain on a used car that turned out to be a lemon? After a couple of years of continual repairs, you realize that it ended up costing as much as a new car would have. And after spending all that money, you still have a dud. If you are considering a cosmetic dental smile makeover, meet with Dr. Marcos Ortega at Marcos Ortega DDS first.
The same is true of substandard dental work. You have probably received sleek postcard ads that publicize amazing deals on cosmetic dentistry: porcelain veneers, crowns, white fillings, and dental implants. The prices may be tempting, but make certain you do plenty of research before committing. We aren’t trying to imply that all dental practices that proclaim low procedure prices in their ads deliver unsatisfactory work—we are just cautioning patients not to settle upon a cosmetic dentist based on price alone. Unlike a car, you can’t sell your smile and buy a new one.
We will use porcelain veneers as an example. What can go awry if you end up with substandard porcelain veneers?
- The dentist may be inexperienced and make mistakes: improper placement, poor color matching, and bite complications.
- The materials may be deficient: unnatural color, prone to breaking, veneers pop off.
- The lab techs that create the restorations may turn out substandard work: unnatural color, poor fit.
