Porcelain dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that cover the front surface of your teeth and improve their appearance.
Used in cosmetic dentistry, they can restore shape, colour, and symmetry for a brighter and more confident smile.
The porcelain we use is exceptionally strong and closely mimics natural tooth enamel, creating beautiful results with a completely natural appearance.
While composite bonding can improve cosmetic imperfections, custom veneers are often better suited for a full smile makeover.
They can improve the appearance of broken teeth or those affected by discolouration, and can reshape or restore a single tooth or several at once.
Porcelain veneers can drastically improve the look of your smile with minimal impact on your natural teeth.

Porcelain veneers are often recommended for patients with damaged or weakened teeth, as well as teeth affected by developmental defects, and for people who want to transform the appearance of their teeth totally.
Because veneers closely replicate natural tooth structure, this aesthetic dentistry treatment can be used in a wide range of situations where tooth material needs to be reshaped or rebuilt.
Most often, veneers are chosen as a cosmetic treatment to transform the appearance of teeth and achieve a predictable, beautiful outcome.
Porcelain veneers may not be suitable for patients with untreated tooth decay, active gum disease, or severe tooth wear.
In these cases, we recommend addressing these dental issues first as part of your overall treatment.
Once your oral health is stabilised, veneer treatment may be considered to ensure long-lasting results.
Porcelain veneer treatment is carefully planned and tailored to achieve a natural-looking smile. Each step is designed to ensure your custom porcelain veneers look natural, feel comfortable, and deliver life-changing results. At The Modern Dentist, our dental treatment is as follows.

We begin with a consultation to understand your concerns and expectations.
We assess the health of your teeth and gums and determine whether your cosmetic goals can be achieved with porcelain veneers or whether alternative treatments should be considered.

At The Modern Dentist, professional, custom-made porcelain veneers cost £950 per tooth.
If a wax-up or mock-up is needed as part of the design process, this can add £100-£200 per tooth.
Even very thin veneers can mask discolouration and create a natural-looking tooth colour.
Veneers can increase tooth size to close gaps effectively.
Veneers can completely restore a tooth to its original dimensions and can even be stronger than the natural tooth.
Porcelain veneers can recreate a tooth's structure as it was before wear took place.
Teeth can be made larger, smaller, more square or more round with veneers.
Veneers can recreate a youthful, white smile without looking unnatural (when done properly).

Caring for porcelain veneers is straightforward and very much like looking after your normal teeth, with a few important differences.
Porcelain veneers typically extend close to the gumline.
If gum health is not maintained and recession occurs (due to gum disease or overbrushing), the margin where the veneer meets the natural tooth can become visible.
A good brushing technique and regular hygiene visits can help prevent this.
Diet also plays an important role in how long your veneers will last.
A diet high in sugar or acid can cause marginal leakage and cosmetic issues over time.
Maintaining a healthy diet and having regular check-ups can protect both your veneers and natural teeth.
Teeth grinding or clenching can cause premature veneer damage, as well as damage to the opposing teeth.
For patients who grind their teeth, we recommend wearing a custom night guard.
