Get a dazzling smile with veneers in Dunstable

If you’re looking to cover up dental flaws such as chips or discoloured teeth and get a dazzling new smile, porcelain veneers could be the answer.

Made from thin layers of porcelain, dental veneers are custom-made to fit over the top of the surface of your tooth to enhance their appearance. Veneers are colour-matched to your own teeth so that they look completely natural.

Veneers can be used to treat one tooth or several teeth. They are used to overcome a range of dental cosmetic issues including improving the shape, colour, size or spacing of your teeth.

Veneers are commonly used to:

  • Close gaps between teeth
  • Disguise discoloured or heavily stained teeth
  • Give shape to uneven or misshapen teeth
  • Disguise minor misalignment of teeth

We have treated hundreds of patients for veneers from Dunstable, Sewell, Houghton Regis, Totternhoe and Bedfordshire. Find out more about how veneers can update your smile by getting in touch.

Book An Appointment

How do veneers in Dunstable work?

At your initial consultation, we will assess your teeth and discuss what you want to achieve with your smile. We will discuss the process for veneers, and we may take x-rays at this stage.

At your next appointment, we will prepare the tooth or teeth by trimming off a very thin layer of enamel which allows the veneers to adhere to the surface of your tooth.

We then take impressions of your teeth which are sent to a specialist laboratory and used to create your bespoke veneers. This process may take a week or two so in the meantime you will be fitted with temporary veneers.

Once your custom-made veneers are ready, we will invite you back to the dental practice in Dunstable where your dentist will apply a special bonding material to your teeth which allows the veneers to stick securely in place.

FAQ's for Veneers

Is everyone suitable for veneers?

Veneers can give a long-lasting result if you want to disguise imperfections or enhance the look of your teeth. Your dentist will need to assess your teeth to ensure that you are suitable for veneers. If you have misalignment or spacing issues, your dentist may consider that other treatments such as Invisalign might be better suited. Your dentist will give you their honest opinion at your consultation.

Is the process for porcelain veneers reversible?

No, the process for porcelain veneers is not reversible and this is because the tooth has been gently filed during the preparation stage and the veneers adhered. Porcelain veneers can only be removed by a professional dentist and should then be replaced with new veneers.

How much do porcelain veneers cost?

This will depend upon how many teeth you are having treated. As a guide, prices start from £725. We offer 0% financing at Dunstable Dental Practice to help make the cost of veneers affordable.

Peter R.
Broke a tooth this morning and a large piece came away. Left me with extremely sensitive pain. I called the Dental Practice and they very kindly gave me an appointment straightaway and by 11.30am my dentist had repaired the tooth with a new white filling and built up the broken area. I cannot thank them enough, the pain has gone and they were so professional and friendly. Thanks to everyone at Dunstable Dental Practice.

I always know that 8 will receive a professional and warm welcome from the staff. Dr Tanna is amazing and never fails to deliver outstanding treatment. Having an extraction that I didn't even feel when she had extracted the tooth was wonderful. She really is an excellent dentist.

Dr Shah is so professional kind and has looked after my family for over 16 years . We have all had the best care . Highly recommend.
Cackle T.
As usual, polite, caring and great service, thank you! I've been going here for years now, they're honest, lovely receptionists, my dentist and the hygienist too. When I asked for a treatment he didn't think I needed, after a private dentist tried to persuade me to have it, he assured me that I really didn't, when he could've taken nearly £4000 from me. Good dentists are worth their weight in gold! Many thanks again! Jean

Everyone is friendly and professional. My Dentist Danyel is one of the best dentists i have ever had.
Bethany B.
I went in for my child as she had a previous filling come out, the dr did a very quick job of fixing the problem, and my child is no longer in pain, so were very grateful. They’re always nice and friendly and do apologise if you’ve waited a little longer to be seen. And as always a sticker is great, the children love it
Cecile C.
We have been with this practice for more than 20 years and cannot fault the care we have all received. The receptionists are delightful and our current dentist friendly and kind. Twice over the years I have had to been seen on emergency and this always has happened within 24h. I highly recommend this practice.
Teresa O.
I had a terrible fear of dentists but Adam has made me feel comfortable and I no longer get panicked when I need to go for an appointment. The reception staff are always very helpful and understanding. I would recommend this Dental practice to anyone who is nervous. They make you feel at ease and it seems no problem is too much trouble. Well done Dunstable Dental Practice!
