What are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin ceramic shells bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve colour, shape, symmetry and spacing, creating a more even and natural-looking smile.

What types of porcelain veneers do you offer?

The practice offers premium porcelain veneers including lithium disilicate (Emax) veneers for strength and translucency, and zirconia combined with porcelain where additional strength or structural correction is required.

How long do porcelain veneers last?

Porcelain veneers last significantly longer than composite alternatives and are designed for long-term durability, with brands used by the practice lasting up to 20 years.

How much tooth preparation is required?

Porcelain veneers require minimal preparation, with up to 0.5mm of enamel gently removed to bond the veneer securely, preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible.

How long does porcelain veneer treatment take?

Porcelain veneer treatment typically takes around three weeks from consultation to final placement, completed over one to three visits.

Can I preview my veneers before they are fitted?

Yes. The process includes digital smile design, mock-ups and try-in stages so you can preview and approve the shape, size and shade before the final veneers are bonded.

Who provides porcelain veneer treatment?

Porcelain veneers are provided by cosmetic dentists Dr Gupta and Dr Mohan, who have extensive experience in smile design and veneer dentistry.

Is finance available for porcelain veneers?

Yes. Porcelain veneers are available with 0% interest-free finance over 12 months, with example monthly payments from £49.

Types of porcelain veneers

We offer various types of porcelain veneers based on the clinical situation; we’ll recommend a specific kind after a consultation.

Patients can rest assured that we provide high-quality aesthetic materials, such as pure lithium disilicate (Emax veneers), widely regarded as one of the strongest and most durable porcelain types, with excellent translucency.

In addition, we provide zirconia combined with porcelain when additional strength is needed or when correcting specific imperfections that involve more complex structural issues.

Our range of porcelain veneers enables us to tailor treatment to each patient’s specific clinical needs while achieving optimal aesthetic and functional results.

Porcelain veneer costs

Like other cosmetic clinics in Cheshire, our dental veneers are charged by the tooth – this is because some patients only want to improve a few problem teeth (like the two front teeth, for example), or others who want to makeover their full smile (for some patients this might be 6 teeth, for others it might be up to 10).

Finance examples use 36 months finance with no deposit (fixed 10.9% APR).

What’s special about our porcelain veneers

Veneers That Look Natural

Porcelain veneers are entirely bespoke and custom-made according to your specifications.
Our dentists will digitally design your new smile, ensuring your new teeth suit your face and proportions and align with your goals.
You’ll preview and approve the mock-ups before designs, shades and specs are sent to the lab for production.
Once they’re made, you’ll try them on and test them to ensure you’re happy with every curve.
This process ensures your final look looks and feels natural.

so thin that they do not compromise your teeth

Porcelain veneers last much longer than composite alternatives – this is because they’re bonded more strongly onto your natural tooth, which requires a small bit of tooth preparation. And when we say small, we mean it; we’ll only remove up to 0.5mm of enamel to bond the veneer – we’ll never have to file down your teeth to stubs or compromise their structure.

Our veneers are lightweight, minimally invasive and sit on the front surface of the tooth, not covering entirely like a crown. To avoid any tooth prep, you can opt for composite veneers, which are more conservative.

The process

The porcelain veneer timeline typically takes 3 weeks from start to finish:

The consultation: Dr Gupta or Dr Mohan will listen to your goals and hear what you expect from cosmetic treatment to recommend the type and brand of veneers that will be the best for your situation. We’ll also assess your oral health, gums and bite to ensure your suitability for treatment. During this appointment, we’ll also shade map, provide an accurate quote, and explore dental financing.
Mock-up: You’ll be fitted with temporary veneers based on your final set so that you can try your new smile at home for the first time. This will be your opportunity to say what you like and what you don’t, so we can make any final adjustments.
preparation: Next, we’ll start preparing your teeth to start your journey.
The final appointment: Once you’re happy, we’ll be ready to move on and place your permanent veneers. During this appointment, we’ll bond them to your teeth, check your bite (and your satisfaction), make any tweaks we need to, and you’re done.

Are Porcelain Veneers Right for Me?

Porcelain veneers are suitable for patients near Chester who want to improve the shape, colour, size, or symmetry of their teeth.

Beautiful, Long-Lasting Veneers

They are an excellent long-term option for patients with worn teeth, staining, or small gaps, chips, or minor misalignment.

You may need to have other treatments first if you have active tooth decay or gum disease, (hygienist) heavy tooth grinding, severe crowding or bite problems.
