Cosmetic Dentistry Stamford - Smile Makeovers & Veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin shells of dental ceramic bonded to the front of your teeth to transform their appearance. They can change the colour, shape, size, and alignment of teeth, creating a stunning smile transformation. Veneers are custom-made by skilled ceramists for a natural, beautiful result.

Veneers are thin porcelain shells made in a laboratory and permanently bonded to teeth, offering exceptional durability and aesthetics. Composite bonding uses tooth-coloured resin applied and sculpted directly onto teeth in one visit. Bonding is less expensive and reversible but may not last as long or look quite as natural as veneers.

With proper care, porcelain veneers typically last 10-20 years or more. They're stain-resistant and durable, though you should avoid biting very hard objects. Composite bonding usually lasts 5-7 years before needing touch-ups or replacement.

Traditional veneers require removing a small amount of enamel (about 0.5mm). However, we offer minimal-prep and no-prep veneer options where suitable, preserving more of your natural tooth. We always discuss the most conservative options for your situation.

Veneers can create the appearance of straighter teeth and are sometimes called 'instant orthodontics.' However, for significantly misaligned teeth, we may recommend orthodontic treatment first for healthier, more conservative results.

A smile makeover is a customised treatment plan combining multiple procedures to completely transform your smile. This might include whitening, veneers, bonding, gum contouring, and other treatments, all planned together to achieve your ideal result.

Costs vary widely depending on the treatment. Composite bonding starts from around 150 per tooth, while porcelain veneers range from 650-950 per tooth. We'll provide a detailed quote after your consultation, and finance options are available.

Absolutely. We specialise in creating natural-looking results. We carefully match shades, shapes, and textures to complement your face and personality. We avoid the 'fake' look - our goal is to enhance your natural beauty so people notice your beautiful smile, not that you've had dental work.
