Dental veneers offer a quick and effective way to achieve a beautifully radiant and flawless smile. We use modern high-quality materials, so often very little tooth preparation is needed. We take a minimal intervention approach and always preserve as much healthy tooth structure as possible. In some cases, we don’t have to treat the tooth at all.
Whether you want to correct minor issues like chips and gaps or completely transform your teeth, veneers are a durable, natural-looking and long-lasting choice. Let veneers boost your confidence and leave you grinning with pride!
We begin your veneers treatment with a consultation appointment. We make sure your teeth and gums are healthy and suitable for veneers, and take impressions so your custom veneers can be designed. We can also show you a preview of how veneers can transform the appearance of your teeth.
Once you’re happy with the look that we’ve come up with together, we will prepare your teeth if you need to have a layer of enamel removed. We provide temporary veneers to keep your teeth protected between appointments.
Your veneers are crafted at the dental laboratory using the models of your teeth. When we receive your veneers, we’ll see you again for your fitting. We make sure the look is exactly what you expected before we fix the veneers using a dental adhesive.

After fitting, it is important to keep your veneer well-maintained with regular brushing and flossing. Your dentist and hygienist will show you how to keep on top of your dental hygiene and keep a close eye on the health of your teeth and gums.
Although veneers are resilient, it is important to treat them with care, so try not to bite your fingernails or chew pen tops or use your teeth to open anything. Also, it is probably best to steer clear of very hard foods that could cause damage to the veneer.
In many cases, fitting porcelain veneers requires some of your natural tooth enamel to be removed. Therefore, they are an irreversible treatment, designed to be kept on your teeth permanently. Your veneers themselves can last up to 15 years before needing to be replaced, depending on how well you look after them.
You shouldn’t find either the treatment for veneers or the veneers themselves painful. We use local anaesthetic to minimise your discomfort during the preparation and fitting process and ensure you are relaxed and ready before beginning any treatment. Most patients experience no pain or discomfort at all. You may feel some sensitivity once your veneers have been fitted, but this will go away after a few days.
