Which veneers are best for you?
We offer a wide range of veneers that are able to suit the needs of various individuals. Each tpe of treatment boast their own advantages, but generally veneers are the ideal treatment to improve not only your appearance but oral health and hygiene. This is because they help to create a strong and stable foundation.
Composite veneers
- Immediate Veneers – best for fast results and quick recovery, can be fitted in a single visit, most affordable option.
Porcelain veneers
- Lumineers – no drilling necessary, bonded directly to teeth using special cement.
- Ultrathin veneers – incredibly thin, require very little tooth preparation, bonded directly to teeth.
- Durathin Veneers – No-prep, very thin veneers, fitted in two appointments.

Porcelain Veneer Colours
We generally recommend selecting a shade for your veneers that is about two shades lighter than your natural teeth.
You can combine veneers with tooth whitening treatments for your natural teeth to ensure that your smile is seamless and stands out.
Standardised dental colour charts with a wide range of tones are used to select the exact shade of your veneers.
Choose the right tooth shape for you
Veneers are designed and made specifically for each client’s individual teeth.
Our expert cosmetic dentists use the latest digital smile design software to simulate your new smile.
This will result in veneers that create a natural-looking smile to perfectly complement and add balanace to your face shape.
Try Out Your New Smile
The Trial Smile is a provisional temporary smile that is placed on prepared teeth. It allows you to “test-drive” your new smile and make any adjustments before the permanent cosmetic dentistry is completed.
This extra stage in your smile makeover ensures our clients are 100% satisfied with their veneers.

Pain-free treatment no drilling or injections
Veneers are usually not painful whilst you are having the treatment.
However, some have reported slight sensitivity during the settling down period after the final fitting. This is quite normal and nothing to worry about. It usually only lasts for a few days and very soon after subsidies. More.
The sensitivity is due to the bonding process where an inorganic substance (the veneer) has been bonded to an organic component (your tooth).
In complex cases, involving a large amount of treatment, you may experience a little uncomfortableness while your teeth settle down.
Fast, simple, pain-free process
- At your first appointment, your dentist will take a look at the general health of your teeth and gums, your bite and understand your goals for your smile; and then see if any fundamental issues need addressing before cosmetic veneer work can begin.
- We will also discuss the type of veneers that may be suitable and also the how-many-veneers that should be considered in achieving your desired smile. On some patients, it may be possible to get some veneers placed at an initial phase and then to have the possibility of additional veneers in the future.
Tooth Preparation
- We will always plan your new smile before any treatment is carried out. We aim to provide you with the most conservative and preservative dentistry.
- In order, to prevent excessive tooth preparation, we design your new smile in a way that minimises tooth preparation. We also provide options whereby you can have orthodontic or teeth straightening treatment carried out before any cosmetic veneer work is done.
- This way your teeth are already well aligned and so very minimal or hardly any tooth preparation become necessary.
- If you are concerned in any way we advise that you speak to us in your complimentary consultation. We will be able to provide you with suitable solutions. More.
Simple, transparent pricing
A few factors will affect the total cost of your cosmetic veneers:
- The type of material used – Porcelain (Ultrathin or Lumineers ) 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 – if you require treatment for other dental issues such as tooth decay or gum disease before veneers can be fitted then this will be included in the total cost of your dentistry work. More.
