Candidates for Dental Veneers
Drs. Pendergrass and Wilkie will need first to examine your teeth to verify your candidacy. We will look for:
Sufficient Enamel
Dental veneers require us to remove some enamel in order to achieve a natural-looking result. If you have a very thin layer of enamel that would result in a weakened tooth after these alterations, we will need to explore other solutions, such as dental bonding.
No Bruxism
Patients who grind or clench their teeth can end up wearing down or breaking their veneers. If you suffer from bruxism, we can recommend a protective mouthguard or an alternative form of treatment.
Good Oral Health
Before undergoing cosmetic procedures, we will first take care of your oral health. Our dentists will check for tooth decay and periodontal disease and treat those problems before starting work on your veneers.

How Much Do Veneers Cost?
Our porcelain veneers cost between $1,300 and $1,500 per tooth. Insurance does not cover the cost of cosmetic procedures, but our practice offers many ways to make dental veneers a comfortable fit for your budget:
- Cash Discounts: We offer a five-percent cash discount.
- Credit Cards: We accept payment by credit card.
- CareCredit® Financing: Don't let out-of-pocket costs keep you from upgrading your smile and confidence. CareCredit is a third-party lender offering low-interest monthly payment plans to make cosmetic dental treatments an easy fit for your budget.
Why Get Veneers When Bonding Is More Affordable?
Dental bonding is a more affordable way to enhance flawed teeth. It uses a tooth-colored composite resin instead of porcelain. However, resin is not as strong or stain-resistant as porcelain veneers.
Dental bonding can't look as realistic as veneers, and it doesn't last as long. However, it may be sufficient for your goals. Our dentists can help you decide during your consultation.
Take a Look at the Veneers Procedure
Veneers placed at our Amarillo practice cover the entire front surface of the tooth to achieve a healthy, uniform appearance.

Dr. Pendergrass or Dr. Wilkie will need to conduct a preliminary dental exam to make sure there are no underlying oral health issues and confirm you are a good candidate for treatment. Afterward, we will get started on your veneers. Here's what you can expect during treatment:

"I live in Mesa, AZ, but try to come
all the way to Amarillo twice a year..."
Bill Jacobs
2020
The staff - hygienists, appointment scheduler, insurance clerk , and dentists - is always courteous and devote full attention to the patient. I live in Mesa, AZ but try to come all the way to Amarillo twice a year to get my teeth cleaned. I have had some other procedures done and Dr. Pendergrass constantly asking if I am having any pain, and more than willing to make sure I am totally comfortable throughout whatever procedure he is doing. I highly recommend this practice to anyone!

View On GoogleFrequently Asked Veneers Questions
Are veneers a substitute for orthodontics?
It depends. If your teeth only have minor misalignment that does not affect your oral health, veneers might be a viable solution to make your teeth look straight. However, if you have severe misalignment, orthodontics is a more appropriate solution.
How long is the recovery period after veneers are placed?
You won't have any downtime after your veneers are in place. You may experience some sensitivity to heat and cold after your teeth are prepped, but this is normal, and the discomfort will fade within a few weeks. During that time, you can minimize discomfort by taking care not to eat especially hot or cold foods.
Are dental veneers reversible?
Unfortunately, we do need to make some alterations to your natural tooth structure in order to make room for the veneer. That means the tooth will always require some kind of restoration. If you choose to undergo treatment, you will need to maintain the restorations with periodic replacements every decade or so.
What happens if my veneer comes off?
While the material we use to secure your restorations creates a very strong bond, there is still a chance that your veneer could come loose if you are injured or, for example, use your veneer to open a package. If this occurs, do not throw it away or try to reattach it yourself. Give us a call and we will schedule you into the office as soon as possible to put the veneer back into place.
