Top 10 questions to ask before getting veneers in London

5th September 2025

Considering veneers to enhance your smile? Here are ten key questions to ask before you decide, now answered by the team at Bond Dental.

1. What type of veneers do you offer? (Porcelain vs Composite)

We offer both porcelain and composite veneers. Porcelain veneers are highly durable and stain-resistant, ideal for long-term results. Composite veneers are more affordable and involve less preparation, offering a great solution for minor corrections.

2. How long do veneers last?

Porcelain veneers can last 10–15 years or longer with good care. Composite veneers typically last 4–8 years, depending on lifestyle and oral hygiene.

3. What does the process involve?

With porcelain veneers, the process involves taking digital scans and fitting your bespoke veneers at a follow-up visit. In some cases, this may also include gently preparing the tooth surface. Composite veneers can often be completed in a single visit without altering the natural tooth.

4. Will any of my natural teeth be removed?

For porcelain veneers, a very thin layer may be removed to ensure an accurate fit, but this is not always necessary. Composite veneers often require no drilling or reduction at all.

5. What are the risks?

As with any cosmetic treatment, there’s a small risk of sensitivity or damage if not maintained. Our dentists will guide you through aftercare guidelines to avoid issues.

6. Can I see before-and-after photos?

Yes. We have an extensive portfolio of real patient results, which we are happy to share during your consultation. You can also explore our Smile Gallery on the website to see examples of the smiles we have transformed.

7. How much do veneers cost in London?

Composite veneers start from £395 per tooth, and porcelain veneers start from £1,595 per tooth. If you are considering treatment for multiple teeth, we can provide a tailored package price during your consultation. A full quote will always be given based on your individual needs and treatment plan.

8. Are veneers right for me?

If you have discolouration, worn edges, gaps or misaligned teeth, veneers may be a good option. We’ll assess your goals and suitability in your initial consultation.

9. Will they look natural?

Absolutely. Our veneers are colour-matched to your smile and shaped with precision for a natural, seamless look.

10. What happens if one gets damaged?

If a veneer becomes damaged, whether chipped, cracked or detached, it can usually be repaired or replaced. At Bond Dental, we’ll assess the damage and advise an appropriate course of action. For porcelain veneers, replacement may be needed, while composite veneers are often easier to repair in a single appointment. We offer tailored aftercare advice to help protect your veneers and keep your smile in its best possible condition.

Damaged veneers can usually be repaired or replaced. We’ll always recommend the most appropriate course of action depending on the extent of the damage.

At Bond Dental, we believe in fully informed decisions. Our team will walk you through every stage of the process, from consultation to final results.
