Veneers costs
Veneers are wafer-thin coverings for the teeth. They are permanently attached to the front of your teeth for a more beautiful and natural smile. The material is often made of ceramic or composite. You can tread an individual teeth or the whole set of teeth.
The costs of veneers are depending on the material, the number of veneers you want to have and some other factors.

What do veneers cost?
Veneers are usually applied in two sessions. With pre- and post-treatment consultations, the treatment usually comprises four to five sessions in total. How much the veneers cost depends mainly on the following points:
- Material
- Laboratory costs
- Type of veneers
- Number of teeth being treated
- Dentist's fee
However, the prices of veneers are not only made of these factors. In addition, the costs for a treatment vary depending on the location. In large cities like Berlin, Stuttgart or Dortmund, they are more expensive than in the countryside. However, it should be emphasised again at this point that every dentist can determine his or her prices individually. Every patient needs different treatment and therefore the price can vary from patient to patient.
The following prices are only a guide and apply per tooth:
Veneers do not only differ in terms of their prices. The material and their durability also play a major role in pricing. Ceramic veneers are more stable than composite veneers. They are therefore particularly suitable if you want to have several teeth treated.

Although ceramic veneers also have to be replaced at some point, they last up to 20 years due to their high quality. However, ceramic does not always mean ceramic. The quality is related to the production and processing in the laboratory. There, dental technicians individually fit the veneers to the patients. The more highly qualified the dental technicians are, the higher the price.
Veneers-to-go are particularly cheap because they are standard veneers that are not customised to the patient. This type of veneer is not suitable for everyone and is only offered by some dentists.

Non-prep veneers (e.g. Lumineers) are characterised by their low thickness, which makes them look particularly natural. The actual tooth hardly needs pre-treatmend, so the treatment itself can potentially be reversed. However, due to their thinness, they are not as durable and resilient as ceramic veneers.
A veneer costs 1.500 € per tooth. In our laboratory, the perfect veneers are individually fitted with the highest quality. In a total of five sessions, we take full care of your needs.
Veneers costs abroad
You can save costs when you have your treatment abroad (e.g. in Turkey). Often, organizers entice you with all-inclusive offers that already include all treatment and additional costs. At first glance, this is a good offer. However, you should be aware of the risks of treatment abroad.
Much more important than the price of veneers should be the quality of the material and the treatment. Especially the pre-treatment and post-treatment consultations cannot be attended when the treatment is carried out abroad. There is a risk that these important aspects have to be neglected because there is not enough time for them. Of course, there are qualified doctors abroad, but finding them and getting a cheaper price with travel to and from the country can be a challenge.
Furthermore, not only good doctors are important, but also good dental technicians. Dental technology from Germany enjoys a very good reputation internationally and stands for high quality. The “Made in Germany” quality unfortunately not available for a cheap rate.
Advantages of treatment abroad
- Complete packages
- Favourable prices for a treatment
Disadvantages of treatment abroad
- No personal pre-treatment talks due to the long distance
- Long journeys
- Hygiene standards may differ from those in Germany.
- In case of complications, follow-up treatment is difficult
- Quality of the laboratories is not given
The German Dental Association (BZÄK) cannot provide any current studies on the quality of treatment abroad. Every patient is therefore on his or her own and must assess the quality of dental treatment, including the materials used, for themselves with the help of comparison portals.
Do health insurance companies cover the costs of veneers?
Whether statutory health insurances cover the costs depends mainly on whether it is a medical necessity or the treatment is done for purely aesthetic reasons. In justified exceptional cases, partial or full coverage of the veneer treatment may be possible.
Reasons for coverage can be:
- Broken tooth
- Underdevelopment of a tooth
- Enamel defect
- Problems due to tooth wear
- Chipping
Nevertheless, these reasons are no guarantee for coverage if they can be treated just as well with a crown. Each health insurance company therefore checks individually whether there is a medical necessity or not.
However, after individual consultation with a supplementary insurance or as a private patient, there are some possibilities.
