What is a dental veneer?
A veneer is a new front surface for a tooth, custom made from porcelain. Veneers are extremely versatile and can be used to align crowding or protruding teeth, close gaps or lighten tooth colour. The strength and appearance of our dental porcelain veneers rivals that of natural teeth and they’re used to make long lasting changes to the smile.

The process
Dental porcelain veneers can be used to mask a single dark tooth but more often are used as part of smile makeover.
1Digital Smile Planning
At the London smile clinic our smile makeovers start at the consultation where we find out what clients don’t like about their teeth and what type of smile is required. Computer aided smile design is then used to design the smile and to fine tune the required tooth shapes and colour to the client’s wishes.
23D Preview
When the client is ready to proceed with treatment the next step is to create a 3d preview model. Our ceramist uses the computer aided smile design to create this 3d version of the smile design so it can be checked from all angles for aesthetics and function.
3Trial Smile
Dental porcelain veneers are then provided as planned over two main treatment appointments. At the first appointment the teeth are prepared. This process involves trimming back a thin layer from the front surface and biting edge to make space for the veneer. Impressions are taken and temporary veneers are made using a template made from the 3d preview model.
4Final Reveal
Importantly, this gives our patients an opportunity to trial the planned smile design in their own mouths before the veneers are made. Any changes or fine adjustments can be made to the temporaries and reproduced in the final veneers. All veneers are made with this technique at the London smile clinic.
Pain-free techniques
These treatments are all carried out using our pain-free anaesthetic techniques. Clients can relax and watch DVDβs with our DVD goggle in-chair entertainment system.

I would recommend Manrina Rhode without hesitation to anyone who is not happy with their smile and wants to get it fixed. She has transformed my smile with great skill. Thanks to her for the amazing work on my teeth, to Sheneen and all the staff for their professionalism.
Thank you Dr Bradstock-Smith and the London Smile Clinic team. I had my veneers done 11 years ago and they were absolutely brilliant from start to finish, gently walking me through the process and reassuring me during the slightly strange feeling of having my temporary veneers
