Frequently Asked Questions

What are dental veneers?

A veneer is a thin, custom-made shell that covers the front surface of a tooth to improve its appearance. Veneers are often made from porcelain or composite material and are designed to look like natural teeth.

Who is a good candidate for veneers?

Veneers are ideal for individuals with discoloured, chipped, uneven, or slightly crooked teeth. A consultation with a cosmetic dentist will determine if you're suitable based on your dental health and goals.

What’s the difference between porcelain and composite veneers?

Porcelain veneers are more durable, stain-resistant, and natural-looking, while composite veneers are more affordable and can usually be applied in one visit. The type of veneer you choose depends on your budget, goals, and dentist’s advice.

How long do dental veneers last?

Porcelain veneers can last 10–15 years or longer with proper care, while composite veneers usually last around 5–7 years. Maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding hard foods can extend their lifespan.

Are veneers a permanent solution?

Veneers are considered an irreversible procedure because a small amount of enamel is usually removed to fit them. Once you get veneers, you’ll always need some type of covering on those teeth.

Do veneers damage your natural teeth?

When applied by a skilled dentist, veneers do not damage your teeth. However, enamel removal is necessary, which makes the treatment permanent. Your dentist will ensure minimal impact while preparing your teeth.

What cosmetic concerns can veneers fix?

Dental veneers can improve the appearance of:
Discoloured or stained teeth
Chipped or broken teeth
Gaps between teeth
Minor misalignment
Teeth that are worn down

How much do veneers cost in London?

The cost of veneers in London varies depending on the type (porcelain vs composite), the number of teeth treated, and the clinic. We offer transparent pricing and flexible payment options to spread the cost of treatment.

Can I get veneers on the NHS?

Veneers are considered a cosmetic dental treatment, so they are typically not available on the NHS. They are provided privately at dental clinics.

How do I care for my veneers?

To keep your veneers looking their best:
Brush and floss daily
Avoid biting hard foods or using teeth as tools
Limit foods and drinks that stain (like coffee or red wine)

What are veneers?

Veneers are thin shells that cover the front surface of your teeth to improve the appearance of your smile. They are a cosmetic treatment used to enhance the teeth and gums, creating a natural, beautiful look. Veneers can be made of composite or porcelain, and porcelain veneers are often used for a more durable, long-lasting option.

What are the different types of veneers available?

There are several types of veneers, including no-prep veneers, traditional veneers, Emax veneers, and porcelain veneers. No-prep veneers require little to no tooth reduction, while traditional veneers involve more preparation of the tooth surface. Emax veneers are a high-strength porcelain veneer treatment that offers a natural aesthetic and durability.

What are the benefits of professional teeth whitening?

The main benefit of professional teeth whitening is achieving a brighter, whiter smile. It can improve the appearance of your smile, making it look more youthful and radiant. Teeth whitening is also an excellent option for preparing for a special occasion, such as a wedding or an important event.

Are veneers right for me?

Veneers are an excellent option for patients looking to improve the appearance of their teeth. They are ideal for covering damaged teeth, crooked teeth, gaps, or discoloration. Your dentist will assess the health of your teeth and determine if you are eligible for veneers based on your oral health and cosmetic needs.

What is the veneers procedure like?

The veneers procedure involves placing temporary veneers while your custom-made veneers are being prepared in a dental laboratory. Once ready, the permanent veneers are fitted to the front of your teeth, improving their shape, size, and color. This procedure typically takes a few visits to complete.

Veneers are placed over your front teeth, with a small amount of enamel removed to ensure a proper fit. The dentist will first place temporary veneers and ensure the fit is perfect before bonding the permanent veneers to your teeth using a strong adhesive.

What is the difference between temporary veneers and permanent veneers?

Temporary veneers are used to cover your teeth while your permanent veneers are being made. They offer an interim solution, protecting your teeth and allowing you to adjust to the feel of veneers. Permanent veneers, made from materials like porcelain, are bonded to your teeth and provide a more durable, long-term cosmetic result.

What do veneers cover?

Veneers typically cover only the front surface of your teeth. This makes them a non-invasive solution to improve teeth appearance, especially for discolored, cracked, or misaligned teeth. Veneers are custom-made to match the natural contours of your teeth.

How do veneers compare to dental implants?

While both veneers and dental implants improve the appearance of your smile, they are used for different purposes. Veneers cover the front surface of existing teeth, whereas dental implants replace missing teeth entirely. If your teeth are still intact but damaged, veneers may be the ideal solution. For missing teeth, implants are the best option.
