    Questions

    Answers, before you ask.

    We keep costs down by planning cases digitally, working with a focused set of trusted labs, and bundling everything into one transparent price — no upselling. You're not paying for large corporate overhead, just our doctors' time and lab-quality materials. What you save is real; what you get is not compromised.

    Once you add flights, hotels, and at least a week off work, overseas veneers often cost nearly as much as ours — but with far higher retreatment risk and no local recourse. If something goes wrong abroad, your only option is another flight overseas. With GLO there is no travel, no week off work, and the same doctor sees you at every visit. Just as important, you get the reassurance of U.S. regulated care: every treatment meets American clinical standards, materials sourcing, and infection control protocols. You communicate in your native language, in a familiar setting, with no mystery about where your veneers came from or who fabricated them. We use conservative prep to protect your natural enamel, and if anything's ever off, you simply walk in — no flying back.

    Our Tier 01 veneers are a 3D-printed resin and ceramic-infused material. Cosmetically, it's just as good an option as traditional ceramic or porcelain — the same beautiful look, shape, and shade options. The tradeoff: this material will lose its luster over time and typically needs replacement around the 5-year mark on average. Porcelain veneers hold their appearance far longer, which is why they cost more. For patients who want a less invasive, more affordable option — especially those who want to try the look before committing to porcelain — the 3D-printed resin composite is an excellent choice.

    We accept most dental insurance plans and will file on your behalf. Cosmetic treatments like veneers typically aren't covered by insurance, but many orthodontic and restorative components may be. No insurance? No problem — ask about our in-house payment plans and third-party financing options through approved lenders.

    Most porcelain cases take two to three main visits over a few weeks: consultation and scan, prep with a trial smile, then final placement. Our doctors most often recommend a 10-veneer case for the best aesthetic outcome — it covers the full visible smile line and eliminates the transition between treated and natural teeth. 3D-printed resin composite cases follow their own timeline and are scheduled in advance based on the case; same-day completion is not guaranteed. We'll map out your exact timeline at your consultation.

    Our Regional Rescue program is built for you. If you're within about a 6-hour drive, we offer a free virtual consult, a $500 travel credit on any case over $5,000, and coordinated visits so you spend less time traveling and more time smiling.
