        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "The most popular cosmetic dental procedures are: teeth whitening ($300–$1,000), porcelain veneers ($900–$2,500 per tooth), dental bonding ($200–$600 per tooth), tooth contouring ($50–$350 per tooth), and Invisalign or braces for alignment correction."

      "acceptedAnswer": {
        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "Most cosmetic dental procedures are not covered by insurance because they are considered elective. Exceptions include bonding or veneers that serve a restorative function. Some practices offer in-house membership plans that discount cosmetic procedures."

      "name": "How long do porcelain veneers last?",
      "acceptedAnswer": {
        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "Porcelain veneers last 10–20 years with proper care. They are stain-resistant and highly durable. Avoid biting hard objects like ice, pens, or fingernails. Grinding teeth (bruxism) can chip veneers — a night guard is recommended."

      "@type": "Question",
      "name": "What is the difference between veneers and bonding?",
      "acceptedAnswer": {
        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic shells permanently bonded to teeth ($900–$2,500/tooth, lasts 10–20 years). Dental bonding uses tooth-colored resin applied directly ($200–$600/tooth, lasts 3–10 years). Veneers are more durable and stain-resistant; bonding is reversible and less expensive."

Common mistakes to avoid

Why this helps ChatGPT and Perplexity cite your Cosmetic Dentistry page

Let AI extract direct answers from your service pages. When a patient asks ChatGPT "cosmetic dentistry near me" or "best cosmetic dentistry in [city]," the AI scans pages it can crawl for structured answers. FAQPage Schema gives it exactly what it needs — a machine-readable Q&A it can extract and cite without any interpretation.

From AltorLab's weekly crawls of dental practices websites: fewer than 25% have any FAQPage schema, and fewer than 15% have complete LocalBusiness schema with the correct subtype. This means the bar to appear in AI answers is low — one afternoon of technical work separates cited practices from invisible ones.
