The clinicians who do this treatment

Meet the team

Which veneer type is right for you?

Both types are thin shells bonded to the front of your teeth. The difference is how much of the tooth surface, if any, needs to be prepared first.

No-prep veneers do not suit everyone. It depends on where your teeth sit now, your bite and how much you want to change.

Ceramic veneers

Need a small amount of tooth preparation, done once. Best for a large colour change, reshaping or closing gaps. They often last 10 to 15 years.

No-prep veneers

Placed without removing tooth. They suit smaller changes to shape and colour, in the right mouth.

Resists staining

Porcelain picks up far less stain from coffee and wine than composite resin, so the colour holds for longer.

A preview first

We design the veneers digitally and show you the preview before any tooth is prepared.

Veneer FAQs

How much do porcelain veneers cost?

Ceramic veneers are $1,200 per tooth when 10 or more are done together, or $1,800 for a single veneer. Planning fees are separate. You get a written quote at your consult.

What is the difference between ceramic and no-prep veneers?

Ceramic veneers require a small, one-time tooth preparation, typically 0.3 to 0.7mm of enamel removed to create space for the veneer.

How long do porcelain veneers last?

10-15 years or more. Studies report over 90% survival at 10 years for correctly placed veneers with good oral hygiene.

Is the procedure painful?

Preparation is done under local anaesthetic, so most people feel very little. You wear temporary veneers while the final ones are made.

How many appointments are needed?

Two, after the consult. The first prepares the teeth and the second fits the veneers, usually two to three weeks apart.

What to expect

What to expect with veneers

We start with a consult to understand what you want to change and to check your teeth are healthy enough for veneers. We will tell you plainly what veneers can and cannot do.

Once we have a plan, we prepare the teeth and take a precise scan, and you wear temporaries while your custom veneers are made. You will see a preview of the design before anything is finalised.

At the fit appointment we bond the veneers, check the bite and the shade, and make any small adjustments so you leave happy with the result.
