Could this help?
Could veneers help with my concern?
Veneers can change the visible surface of selected teeth, but oral health, tooth position and bite must be assessed first.
You may wish to discuss
- One or more teeth have an uneven shape or proportion
- The edges of teeth are worn or chipped
- Selected teeth have colour changes that whitening may not address
- There are small spaces between suitable teeth
- Previous bonding needs review or replacement
- You want to compare veneers with whitening, bonding or orthodontics
Composite or porcelain veneers?
Both options cover the visible surface of a tooth, but they differ in how they are made, treatment stages, repairability, colour stability, maintenance and cost.
- Composite veneers — tooth-coloured resin shaped directly on the teeth, usually with fewer appointments
- Porcelain veneers — custom restorations made outside the mouth and bonded after trial planning
- Other options — whitening, composite bonding, orthodontics or restorative treatment may be more appropriate
Personalised care
Compare your options before choosing veneers.
Composite and porcelain behave differently, and veneers are not always the most conservative answer. We compare suitable options before you decide.

Common questions
Questions about dental veneers.
Clear information is part of good care. These answers are a starting point for your conversation.
Am I suitable for dental veneers?
Suitability depends on your tooth structure, gum health, bite, alignment and goals. We also consider whether whitening, bonding or orthodontics would be more appropriate.
Do veneers require shaving the teeth?
Some veneers require removal of tooth structure, while others may need minimal preparation. The amount depends on the tooth position, material and planned result.
What is the difference between composite and porcelain veneers?
Composite is shaped directly with resin and is generally easier to repair. Porcelain is made outside the mouth and differs in strength, colour stability, treatment stages and cost.
How long do dental veneers last?
Longevity varies with the material, bite, habits, oral health and maintenance. Veneers are not permanent and may eventually need repair or replacement.
Can veneers stain, chip or break?
Yes. Composite can change colour and both materials can chip, fracture or debond. Avoiding excessive forces and attending reviews can help manage risk.
How much do dental veneers cost?
Cost depends on the material, number of teeth and complexity of planning. We provide an itemised treatment plan after assessment.
