The ultimate guide to Veneers in Mosonmagyaróvár

Last fact-checked: 7 July 2021

With prices as high as £800 per tooth in the UK, dental veneers are often seen as a luxury treatment reserved only for the rich and famous, especially when 10 or even 15 are required for a full smile makeover.

But you can opt for a more affordable alternative: fly to Hungary as a dental tourist and have your veneers made and fitted in the town of Mosonmagyaróvár for a whopping 70% less than back home. 

Find out how to achieve that with Dental Departures, and get your smile back without breaking the bank.

About Dental Veneers in Mosonmagyaróvár

Veneers are wafer-thin slivers of laminate material that are affixed to the front of stained, crooked, chipped or misaligned teeth, essentially hiding the sins behind a new facade. 

That said, veneers are purely a cosmetic treatment; much like teeth whitening, any underlying problems should be addressed first and the teeth and gums should be in good health before proceeding. 

Veneers can be made from a variety of materials, such as:

• Porcelain

• Zirconia

• Ceramic

• Composite (mix)

Veneers are not covered under the NHS in the UK or by similar healthcare schemes in most other countries. Thus, for only one tooth, you could be looking at out-of-pocket expenses close to a grand for just one tooth and more than 10,000 pounds or euros for a full smile makeover.

The good news is that our partner dentists in the Hungarian town of Mosonmagyaróvár, close to the border with Austria and a short drive from Bratislava, charge up to 70% less than dentists in London or Manchester, allowing you to make four-figure savings by heading abroad.

How Long Will I Need to Stay in Mosonmagyaróvár for My Veneers?

For one or two veneers, your clinic may be able to complete the treatment in one day if it has an in-house dental laboratory. 

This will involve a consultation in the morning with moulds of your mouth being taken. These are used to create the veneers while you wait in the town for a few hours.

During the follow-up appointment, the tooth or teeth will be prepared to receive the veneer with a thin sliver of enamel being removed (under a local anaesthetic in case of any sensitivity). This is so that the veneer will fit flush against the rest of the teeth.

The process for multiple veneers is much the same; however, the manufacturing process will inevitably be longer. For a full mouth makeover with 10 or 15 veneers, plan to stay in the local vicinity for three or four days (minimum). 

How Much Do Veneers Cost in Mosonmagyaróvár, Hungary?

• A composite veneer in Mosonmagyaróvár costs approximately EUR 170 (GBP 145)

• A porcelain veneer at the same clinic would cost almost double that at EUR 320 (GBP 270)

Mosonmagyaróvár Travel Information

The small spa town of Mosonmagyaróvár is located in the very northwestern corner of Hungary, making it particularly convenient for prospective patients to drive in from Bratislava or Austria.

To give you an idea of just how popular “Ovar” is for dental tourism, this town of just 35,000 people welcomes over 150,000 Austrian patients every year, with several hundred dentists practising here to meet the demand.

That number is on the rise, too, as more and more Brits, Germans and other Europeans are discovering how easy and cheap it is to fly into nearby Bratislava or Vienna before heading across the border by car or rail.

To cater to the growing influx of visitors, Mosonmagyaróvár is home to around two dozen hotels and guesthouses, as well as a growing number of shopping areas, pubs and restaurants, although don’t expect much in the way of famous tourist attractions in this sleepy but picturesque part of Hungary.

How Do I Get to Mosonmagyaróvár?

Those based in the neighbouring countries of Austria and Slovakia tend to drive across, with a modern highway linking the town with major regional cities.

Another option is to arrive by train, as the town sits on the main route from Budapest to Vienna.

When driving across, you will need an up-to-date passport and papers, although a formal visa is not currently required; check the latest Hungary entry requirements here.

Can I Fly to Mosonmagyaróvár?

For those coming from further afield, the best way to reach Mosonmagyaróvár is by flying into nearby Bratislava or Vienna and then arranging onward transport from there:

• Vienna International Airport—1 hr (70 km) via A4

Of course, another option is to fly into the country’s capital of Budapest. This is a little further away (at around 200 km east), although visitors may find it easy not having to negotiate international land borders.

Direct flights are currently available to the region from several English, Scottish and Irish airports:

• London (Stansted, Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton)

• Edinburgh
