Cost of Veneers

What are Dental Veneers? Guide to Types & Costs in the UK

Veneers are more affordable than you think.

People often assume that veneers are an expensive luxury and are only available to celebrities and the wealthy. However, you might be surprised to find out that we treat hundreds of men or women  who are do just want to feel better about their appearance and smiles.

The fact that you can spread the cost of your veneer treatment means that it has become more accessible to patients. Plus, many use veneers just for minor and moderate corrections, which does not result in expensive treatment. there

46% of UK adults are unhappy with the appearance of their teeth

We understand that feeling a little insecure about your teeth and smile can affect your confidence.

Although some people may trivialise your concerns we know that the how smile-worry can impact your self-esteem can affect all areas of your life.

According to a survey conducted by YouGov, over 20% of Brits would consider having a cosmetic treatment like veneers to transform the appearance of their smile.

So how much do veneers cost?

The exact fee can be worked out after a preliminary assessment distinguishing your personal needs and the type of work that needs to be done.

Main factors which impact the cost of treatment:

• The type of material used – Porcelain (Lumineers or Ultrathin) are more expensive than composite resin veneers.
• The number of veneers being applied – veneers are priced per tooth and so the more you have, the higher the cost.
• Your dental health – e.g. if you require additional treatment for other dental issues such as tooth decay or gum disease before veneers can be fitted.

It is in very rare cases that the NHS will provide veneers treatments

This is because they consider this procedure to be cosmetic. Many other professional dentists agree that veneers not only improve your appearance and imperfections but also improve the overall hygiene and oral condition of your mouth. For example, veneers treatments can correct a multitude of problems and threats like temporomandibular, tooth decay and dental sensitivity.

Other factors affecting the treatment fee include:

• The amount of preliminary work required to create the optimal foundation (patients suffering from gum disease will require prior treatment).
• The complexity of the smile design – some smiles require more intricate work than others so the work needed is dependent upon the type of smile required.
• The general health of the teeth and gums.
• The correction of any destructive bite factors – we need to create a harmonious and stable bite so that your treatment can last as long as possible.
• The pre-treatment position, shape, contour and colour of the teeth.

What are veneers and how do they work?

Veneers are custom-made meaning they are designed for each patient in order to match their existing tooth colour and smile. This is to ensure your new set of teeth look natural, thin and well cared for.

Veneers can be fitted to a single tooth, multiple teeth or full mouth. Not to be confused with crowns, which cover the entire tooth, veneers actually sit on the tooth’s front surface.

Depending on the material of your choice and the type of veneer, the lifespan of veneers can be 20 years or more.

Each version of veneers are typically very strong and tend not to restrict what you are able to eat and drink.

Porcelain veneers require a minimal amount of tooth enamel to be removed, this is so that the surface of the tooth can adhere to the shell.

What types of veneers are available?

• Lumineers and Durathin
• Ultrathin or Porcelain
• Composite veneers

Ultrathin Veneers, Durathin Veneers and Lumineers involve no drilling and no injections since no tooth is being cut.

The most expensive, but durable and beautiful veneers are crafted from porcelain.

In comparison, composite materials are more affordable and are more commonly used to improve the wearer’s appearance rather than fix damage caused by decay or trauma.

Composite vs Porcelain veneers

What is the difference between these two treatment types? Porcelain veneers are thin shells that are adhered to the outer-surface of the tooth. Composite veneers use a resin thats applied to the outer-surface. Typically, because porcelain veneers are made from a stronger material they last longer. Composite veneers in this case are the more affordable option.

Both treatments are custom designed to match, or brighten your teeth.
