Question:

I am looking to get Devinci veneers. Is there a difference between dentists?

I am looking to get a 20 Devinci veneers put in. I was quoted by a Manhattan 'celebrity' type dentist for $2000 a veneer, while another dentist outside Manhattan for $1000 a veneer. Is there a big difference in the way they will appear from dentist to dentist if the veneers come from the same company (Devenci)? Its a big deference in price and i was just wondering is it just the publicity i am buying or it will come out that much better? Please help? Thank you


Answers:

Some good questions to ask the cheaper dentist is how long has he had his practice? Did he ever work at another practice before starting his own? Does he have any examples, before and after, of his work? Ask him where he went to school. Follow http://www.op.nysed.gov/opsearches.htm#n... that link and search by his name. You should be able to find out if he has ever had any professional complaints filed against him. You can also contact the ADA and ask about how you can find out if a specific dentist has ever had any complaints against his license, if it's ever been revoked, etc. You can also google "state name professional license" and search surrounding states to find out if he's ever been licensed in other states, and if the license lapsed because he moved or if it was revoked.

Experience is important. If the dentist is uncomfortable answering these questions, and they are legitimate questions, then this is not a dentist you want to go to - Whether it's the cheaper dentist or the more expensive dentist. You only get one set of permanent teeth, and if they screw up the veneers, it only gets more difficult, complicated and expensive to fix the screw up.
