Veneers
$1,000-$2,500/tooth
Can You Write Off Veneers?
Short answer: Only when they repair damage or decay; purely cosmetic veneers are not deductible.
Medical costs are an itemized deduction only for the amount above 7.5% of your AGI, and only if your total itemized deductions beat the standard deduction ($16,100 single / $32,200 joint for 2026).
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
