Veneers are thin porcelain or composite shells bonded to the front of the teeth to change their shape, size and color. Crowns cover the whole tooth to rebuild it when it is broken, worn or heavily filled. At LOSAN Dental, Dr. Diego Lopez designs each smile around your face and bite, and chooses the most conservative option that solves the problem.

Veneers cover only the front of healthy teeth to change their shape and color. Crowns cover the whole tooth and are used when a tooth is broken, heavily filled or after a root canal. Dr. Diego Lopez chooses the most conservative option that solves the problem.
It depends on the treatment. Crowns and veneers can often be completed in a single trip of a few days. Dental implants usually take two trips: one to place the implants and another, after a healing period of a few months, for the final teeth. Your exact plan is defined at your evaluation.
Yes, most of our dental treatments come with a guarantee. We stand behind our work and will explain the specific terms during your consultation.
The cost depends on how many implants you need, whether you need bone grafting, and the type of final teeth. LOSAN Dental gives every patient a written plan with the total cost before treatment starts.
