The procedure

What Are Porcelain Veneers?

Veneers are wafer-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored material that cover the front of your teeth to change how they look.1

Dr. Daniel’s are IPS e.max porcelain by Ivoclar Vivadent. They go on your natural teeth without grinding them down, unless your case specifically requires it, and they are ready in 24 to 72 hours.

Are They Right for You?

That is what the free call is for. Dr. Daniel reviews your smile, and his team answers your questions and tells you exactly what your smile needs, and what he would not recommend, before you commit to anything.

It depends on your smile. Dr. Daniel reviews your photos and his team tells you in your call. Changing composite veneers to porcelain is one of Dr. Daniel’s favorite cases, and some of his patients come back for it years after their composite veneers.

What the Treatment Includes

Your evaluation, X-rays, a cleaning, the smile try-in before your veneers are made and the video consultation before your trip. We can also coordinate your airport pickup, a hotel near the clinic and your transfers.

How Many Days You Need

Plan a short trip: porcelain veneers are ready in 24 to 72 hours, so you only need a few days off work. You get the exact days for your case in your call, and everything that needs the dental chair happens on this trip, with no second trip.

How Long They Last

They are made to last up to 20 years with proper care. If a veneer comes off, keep it, and it is put back at no additional cost. And Dr. Daniel follows up with you online, for life.1

Why Patients Travel to the Dominican Republic

The same porcelain veneers and the same materials, without the waiting list, the insurance gaps or the U.S. price tag.

In the United States, porcelain veneers usually take three separate visits, with weeks between appointments, and dental insurance generally does not cover them, because they are considered cosmetic. Here, everything that needs the dental chair happens in one trip, and your porcelain veneers are ready in 24 to 72 hours.

We also coordinate your airport pickup, a hotel near the clinic with room for one companion, and your transfers between the hotel and the clinic. The flight is yours to book.

The Porcelain We Use Is IPS e.max

Not every veneer is made of the same thing. Yours are IPS e.max porcelain by Ivoclar Vivadent, layered by hand at the dental lab Dr. Daniel works with.

IPS e.max is a porcelain made by Ivoclar Vivadent. The lab layers your veneers by hand, and porcelain keeps its color and looks like real enamel. With proper care, porcelain veneers can last up to 20 years; composite veneers last 2 to 5 years.

If you already have composite veneers, you can change them to porcelain: it is one of Dr. Daniel’s favorite cases, and some of his patients come back for it years after their composite veneers.

Designed From a Digital Impression

They start with a fully digital impression of your teeth. With it, Dr. Daniel designs your smile, and the lab layers your veneers by hand in IPS e.max porcelain.

You try your new smile on before your veneers are made, so you see it in the mirror first. And they go on your natural teeth without grinding them down, unless your case specifically requires it.

I had my veneers done by Dr. Daniel in the Dominican Republic back in 2019, and I'm still thrilled with the results years later. They look natural, they've held up beautifully, and I get compliments on my smile all the time. Dr. Daniel was professional, skilled, and clearly takes pride in his work. Traveling abroad for dental work can feel like a big leap, but I'm so glad I trusted him with it. I highly recommend Dr. Daniel to anyone considering veneers!

Before you decide

The Questions Patients Actually Ask

The honest answers, before you decide.

Your porcelain veneers are made to last up to 20 years with proper care. If a veneer comes off, it is put back at no additional cost. Dr. Daniel follows up with you online, for life, and if you would rather be seen at home, a dentist there can follow your case with the records we give you.

Some may. That is why you can ask for your clinical records to take home, so a dentist where you live can follow your case. And Dr. Daniel follows up with you online, for life.

No. You get your full price in your free call, before you book anything, and that is the price you pay. If Dr. Daniel sees you need something else, he tells you what it is and what it costs first.

You see them before they go in: you try your new smile on before your veneers are made. They are IPS e.max porcelain, layered by hand at the lab, and they go on your natural teeth without grinding them down, unless your case specifically requires it.

Dr. Ruddy Daniel Arredondo Durán earned his Doctor of Dentistry degree from Universidad Odontológica Dominicana in 2018, and holds an Exequátur, the official licence to practise in the Dominican Republic, granted by the Ministry of Public Health under Executive Decree 100-19, Registry No. 227327. He also completed an International Diploma in Advanced Dental Esthetics at Universidad de Cartagena, Colombia. Ask us and we send you the documents so you can check them yourself.

Plan a short trip: composite veneers are ready in 12 hours and porcelain veneers in 72, so you only need a few days off work. You get the exact days for your case in your call. Everything that needs the dental chair happens on this trip. What comes after is followed online with Dr. Daniel or by a dentist where you live.

Yes. Dr. Daniel and his assistant speak English and Spanish. We answer you in your language, from your first WhatsApp message to the day you fly home.

We arrange your airport pickup, a hotel near the clinic and your transfers, so from the moment you land you are never finding your way around a city you do not know.

Your evaluation, X-rays, a cleaning, the smile try-in before your veneers are made and the video consultation before your trip. Your exact price comes in that call. We can also coordinate your airport pickup, a hotel near the clinic and your transfers.

With Zelle straight from your U.S. bank account, or with Visa or Mastercard. You get your full price in your free call, before you book anything. If you live in the United States or Puerto Rico, you can also finance through HEVA. HEVA reviews your application and decides the approval and the number of months.
