Cosmetic Dentistry in Peterborough

We're conveniently located in Stamford, just 12 miles from Peterborough with excellent access via the A1. The journey typically takes 15-20 minutes, making us very accessible for your cosmetic dentistry appointments. Many Peterborough patients choose us because they want the highest quality cosmetic dentistry available in the area, and the short drive is well worth it for the exceptional results and service they receive. We offer flexible appointment scheduling including some Saturday slots to minimize any inconvenience.

We offer comprehensive cosmetic dentistry including porcelain veneers for dramatic smile transformations, composite bonding for minor corrections and quick fixes, professional teeth whitening for a brighter smile, smile makeovers combining multiple procedures for complete transformations, and gum contouring to improve smile proportions. We also work with specialist orthodontists if teeth straightening is needed before cosmetic work. During your free consultation, we'll assess your smile and recommend the best combination of treatments to achieve your specific goals.

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells of dental ceramic (about 0.5mm thick) that are permanently bonded to the front surface of your teeth to transform their appearance. The process involves minimal tooth preparation (removing about 0.5mm of enamel), taking precise impressions or digital scans, having a laboratory craft your custom veneers, and bonding them at your final appointment. Veneers can change the colour, shape, size, and alignment of your teeth simultaneously, creating a complete smile transformation in just 2-3 visits.

Absolutely - natural-looking results are our specialty. We achieve this by carefully matching shade to complement your complexion and features, creating subtle variations in tooth shape and size like natural teeth have, incorporating translucency and texture that mimics natural enamel, designing proportions that suit your face perfectly, and working with skilled ceramists who craft each veneer individually. Our Peterborough patients consistently tell us people compliment their beautiful smile without realizing they've had cosmetic work. We want people to notice your smile, not your dental work.

Costs vary depending on the treatments you need. Composite bonding starts from £150-£300 per tooth and is perfect for minor corrections. Porcelain veneers cost £650-£950 per tooth and provide comprehensive transformation. A complete smile makeover might range from £3,000 for modest improvements to £12,000+ for extensive work on multiple teeth. We provide detailed, transparent quotes during your free consultation. We also offer flexible finance including interest-free payment plans, making treatment accessible with monthly payments from around £99.

Modern veneers are designed to be minimally invasive. Traditional veneers require removing approximately 0.5mm of enamel from the front of your teeth - to put this in perspective, enamel is typically 2-2.5mm thick, so we're only removing about a quarter of it. This preparation is permanent (your teeth will always need covering), but it doesn't damage the tooth structure and your teeth remain healthy underneath. We also offer minimal-prep and no-prep veneer options in suitable cases which are even less invasive.

With proper care, porcelain veneers typically last 10-20 years, and many last even longer. Their longevity depends on the quality of materials used (we use only premium dental porcelain), your oral hygiene habits and regular dental checkups, whether you grind your teeth (we provide nightguards if needed), and avoiding habits like biting very hard objects. We'll provide comprehensive care instructions to help you maximize your investment. Many of our Peterborough patients still have beautiful veneers 15+ years after treatment.
