Why Choose Mark Gray, DDS Cosmetic and Family Dentistry for Porcelain Veneers?
What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Veneers are wafer-thin shells of dental porcelain that are created specifically to fit the smiles of each patient. The process is simple enough – first you’ll meet with Dr. Gray in one of our private consultation rooms so that you can discuss in-depth what your personal goals are. You don’t just have to cover up flaws with these beautiful restorations – you can even change aspects of certain teeth, including their shade, size, shape, or even length!
Then, our team will need to remove a tiny bit of your dental enamel so that we can make room for the new veneers. Once your brand-new veneers have been expertly crafted, we’ll fit them snugly into place, making any necessary adjustments to ensure that their look and feel is ideal for you. That’s it! You’ll then leave our dental office with a brand-new, stellar look that you’ll be proud to show off to the world.
Porcelain veneers are very natural-looking, and they’re just as durable as regular teeth, meaning that you won’t have to make any tedious changes to your oral hygiene routine or diet in order to accommodate them. In fact, veneers have been shown in research to be even more resistant to staining than natural teeth.

Understanding the Cost of Veneers
Veneers were first invented to perfect the smiles of actors and actresses headed for the silver screen. Even today, popular celebrities like Tom Cruise, Morgan Freeman, and Miley Cyrus owe their award-winning smiles to porcelain veneers. Thankfully, you don’t have to be rich and famous to get veneers since they’re widely available to practically everyone now! However, it’s no secret that veneers are typically more expensive than other cosmetic dental treatments. Read on as we go over some of the most important information regarding the cost of veneers in Houston.
Dr. Gray offers a wide variety of different cosmetic treatments that can beautify your smile. Each one accomplishes different results at different price points. This way, you can improve your smile exactly how you want to in a way that fits best into your budget. Let’s take a closer look at some of our most popular cosmetic services and how the price of veneers compares:
- Teeth Whitening –Teeth whitening is one of the fastest and most affordable ways to improve your smile, and with our in-office and take-home whitening options, it’s never been easier! Of course, teeth whitening can only improve the color of your teeth, not their shape or size.
- Dental Bonding – The fastest and cheapest way to address imperfections like chips, stains, and gaps is with dental bonding, which uses a moldable, tooth-colored composite resin. While dental bonding can dramatically improve the appearance of your teeth in as little as a single appointment, it can only be used for minor flaws and will need to be redone every few years.
- Same-Day Metal-Free Restorations – Thanks to our in-house CEREC technology, we can craft beautiful, custom-made restorations like crowns in a single appointment. You can restore a tooth’s strength while completely redesigning its appearance, but it’s important to keep in mind that crowns require some enamel removal, so they are rarely used as just a cosmetic option.
- Gum Recontouring — If your teeth appear small or your smile looks “gummy,” gum recontouring can eliminate excess tissue to reveal your naturally beautiful smile. While this treatment will change the appearance of your smile, it won’t make any physical changes to the shape or size of your teeth.
- Veneers – Although they are by no means the cheapest cosmetic service, veneers are undoubtedly the best way to completely transform every aspect of your smile all at once in just a few short appointments. With veneers, you can change the color, shape, size, position, and practically anything else about the appearance of your teeth that you want to improve.
While we are in-network with Delta Dental and accept most dental insurance plans, cosmetic services like veneers typically aren’t covered by dental insurance. However, that doesn’t mean that the smile of your dreams is out of reach financially! We’re happy to accept financing through CareCredit to help pay for your veneers. With one of their flexible, low- to no-interest plans, qualifying patients can break up the cost of their veneers into smaller, more manageable monthly installments.
