Porcelain Veneers at Baudelaire Dental Clinic
We offer bespoke porcelain veneer treatments designed to completely transform the shape, size, and colour of your teeth often in just a few appointments.
What are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made ceramic shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth. They are one of the most effective and natural-looking ways to create a flawless smile, especially for patients with:
Chipped or worn teeth
Stained or permanently discoloured teeth
Uneven tooth sizes or minor alignment issues
Gaps between teeth
Why Choose Veneers?
Long-lasting results – typically 15+ years with proper care
Low maintenance – resistant to staining and discolouration
Highly aesthetic – natural translucency and lifelike appearance
Minimally invasive – preserves as much of your natural tooth as possible
Fast transformation – often completed in just 2–3 visits
Whether you're looking for a subtle enhancement or a full smile makeover, porcelain veneers offer a durable, beautiful, and life-changing solution.
The Porcelain Veneers Process
We make the process of transforming your smile with porcelain veneers smooth, comfortable, and highly personalised. Here’s how it works:
1
Consultation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive smile consultation. We’ll assess your teeth, discuss your goals, and design a tailored treatment plan.

Tooth Preparation & Temporary Veneers
In your next appointment, we gently prepare the surface of your teeth to ensure the veneers fit perfectly and look natural. It might include:
A small amount of enamel may be removed
Digital or traditional impressions are taken
You'll leave with custom temporary veneers to protect your teeth and preview your new smile
3
Final Veneer Fitting
Once your porcelain veneers are ready, we’ll carefully fit and bond them to your teeth.
Each veneer is colour-matched and shaped for a seamless result
Final adjustments are made for comfort and aesthetics
You’ll leave with a confident, transformed smile
The Ultimate Smile Transformation
For patients looking to make a dramatic improvement to their smile, our 6–8 veneer smile makeover offers the most comprehensive results. By treating the front visible teeth, we can create a beautifully balanced, fuller, and more symmetrical smile.
This treatment is ideal for correcting:
Major flaws in tooth size, shape, and colour
Asymmetry or uneven spacing
Narrow smiles or worn teeth
Discolouration that cannot be treated with whitening
By placing 6 to 8 custom-made porcelain veneers, we can create a smile that’s not only brighter, but also wider, more youthful, and in perfect harmony with your facial features.

FAQ
-
Yes, when designed and fitted by an experienced cosmetic dentist, veneers can look completely natural. They mimic the translucency and texture of natural enamel and are colour-matched to complement your skin tone and smile.
-
The veneer process is generally comfortable and minimally invasive. A small amount of enamel is removed, but this is done under local anaesthetic to ensure you feel no discomfort. Temporary veneers are worn while your custom veneers are being made.
-
The number of veneers depends on your individual goals. Some patients choose to treat just one or two teeth, while others opt for a full smile makeover with 6–8 veneers to enhance the entire smile line.
-
Over time, veneers may need to be replaced due to natural wear, but they do not require regular replacement if well cared for. Avoiding habits like nail-biting or using teeth as tools will help prolong their life.
-
No, veneers cannot be whitened with traditional teeth whitening treatments. That’s why we recommend whitening your natural teeth beforehand if you want a brighter overall smile, so the veneers can be matched to the ideal shade.
-
Caring for your veneers is easy and similar to caring for natural teeth:
Brush and floss daily
Use a non-abrasive toothpaste
Avoid biting hard objects (ice, pens, etc.)
Attend regular dental check-ups and hygiene appointments
