What Are Porcelain Veneers?
A dental veneer is a thin, custom-made shell, typically porcelain, bonded to the front surface of your tooth. It replaces the visible enamel layer with a material that can be precisely controlled in shade, shape, and size, enabling a level of cosmetic refinement that no other treatment can match for durability and aesthetic precision.
Veneers are used to treat:
Each veneer is crafted by a specialist dental technician using high-quality porcelain that mimics the translucency, texture, and light-reflective properties of natural enamel. The result is indistinguishable from natural teeth, and often significantly better.
- Chipped, cracked, and fractured teeth
- Discolouration and staining resistant to whitening
- Slight misalignment and uneven spacing
- Asymmetric or differently-sized teeth
- Small, short, or worn-down teeth
Placing Your Veneers
Your veneer journey begins with a detailed consultation. We photograph and scan your teeth, discuss your goals in detail, and design your veneers to achieve exactly the result you’re looking for.
For porcelain veneers, if needed, a minimal amount of enamel is prepared from the front surface of each tooth to ensure the veneer sits naturally flush. However, sometimes this preparation stage isn’t required. Impressions or digital scans are sent to our dental laboratory, and your custom veneers are crafted over a period of one to two weeks. Temporary veneers are fitted in the interim. At your second appointment, the finished veneers are bonded permanently.
For composite veneers, where a full-coverage result is preferred without the laboratory stage, the process is completed entirely in a single chairside appointment.

Rave Reviews
My experience at Smile HQ was the best!! Sasha and Charlotte were amazing from start to finish. They made me feel so comfortable and at ease, I would highly highly recommend going here! I had composite bonding and I am over the moon with my results. They really listen to what you are after and if anything exceeds all expectations. I’m very happy!
By far one of the best dental experiences I’ve ever had! I’ve been looking for a good dentist for a long time and always leave disappointed. The moment I walked into Smile HQ, I felt like I stepped into a Harley Street clinic – so clean and kind service. Dr Sasha took his time to explain and make sure I was very comfortable. The best dentist I’ve ever met who was actually so knowledgeable. Charlotte was brilliant and always had a smile on her face! 100% recommend this place!
Hygiene appointment – both the hygienist and nurse were very friendly and informative, they made the appointment feel very easy and eased my nerves immediately. Very professional and not only do my teeth feel great after but I have some useful tips to help me maintain a great clean. Thank you again ladies, 10/10 highly recommend!! 🙂
I have visited SmileHQ for a consultation only, so cannot comment on actual treatment received at this point. However, from my initial enquiry through to my consultation, I have been extremely impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of all of the staff I have so far encountered. There has been no pressure to proceed with treatment and the refundable deposit for the consultation should you decide not to go ahead is commendable and shows an element of the ethos at this practice. I feel very confident in their ability and expertise in this field to eventually make me smile again and would highly recommend anyone taking the first steps on their own personal journey with SmileHQ.
With the sorry state of my teeth, being embarrassed and somewhat scared, the staff at Smile HQ have gone above and beyond themselves in making me always feel at ease. Talking me through all the different stages that they are doing. I really couldn’t ask for better people. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anybody. You will not go wrong choosing Smile HQ.
Fantastic customer experience from start to finish. It’s a truly state of the art facility, stylish and modern. You feel very relaxed the moment you walk in. I saw Dr Sasha and his Nurse Charlotte who were both excellent and very professional. Certainly a dental practice where I feel in safe hands and will continue to visit for years to come.
Both Hannah and Charlotte looked after me very well. The best hygienist appointment I’ve had with no discomfort at all. Anyone who’s scared of going to the dentist has nothing to worry about here. Great coffee too!!
I saw Dr Bal and have been so pleased with my treatment. He really listens to what you want to achieve and speaks through your treatment plan in so much detail. Very natural results which is what I wanted 🙂 Couldn’t recommend him enough!

BOOK CONSULTATIONFrequently Asked Questions
How many veneers will I need?
The number of veneers depends on your goals and which teeth are visible when you smile, and we will make an honest recommendation at consultation, advising the minimum number needed to achieve your desired outcome.
How long do porcelain veneers last?
Porcelain veneers are among the most durable cosmetic restorations available, typically lasting 15-20 years with good care, regular check-ups, and avoidance of habits like nail-biting or grinding.
Veneers vs. composite bonding, which is right for me?
Composite bonding is ideal for targeted, single-appointment repairs and refinements, while veneers are the better choice for comprehensive smile transformations that require long-term durability, precise shade matching, and coverage of the full tooth surface.
How much should I budget for veneers?
Cost is dependent on the number of teeth, the type of veneer, and any preparatory work, and all pricing is provided clearly at your consultation with no hidden costs or surprises.
