At Thornton Dental & Implant Centre, we create veneers to blend in with your natural teeth - not shout for attention. Whether you want to brighten your smile, refine tooth shape, or improve symmetry, we focus on small details that make a big difference day to day.
The aim is simple - a smile that looks balanced, feels comfortable, and still looks like you.
Boost confidence with veneers that look and feel like your own teeth
Veneers can be a great choice if you feel self-conscious about chipped edges, stubborn staining, uneven shapes, or small gaps. They offer a predictable way to improve your smile without lengthy orthodontic treatment, when appropriate.
Your veneers are planned to enhance your teeth while keeping them strong and healthy. Many patients around Selhurst and Norbury also pair veneers with teeth whitening or white fillings for a more complete cosmetic refresh.
A thin, bespoke layer that improves the front surface of a tooth
A veneer is a slim covering fitted over the front of a tooth to improve its shape, shade, or overall appearance. Veneers are commonly made from porcelain or composite resin.
Porcelain veneers are crafted in a dental lab and bonded onto the tooth. They are highly stain-resistant and can last 10-15 years or longer with good care.
Composite veneers (often called composite bonding) are applied directly to the tooth and sculpted into shape in the chair. They are a quicker option and typically last around 5-7 years, with the benefit that small repairs are sometimes possible.
Both types can help you achieve a brighter, more even-looking smile while keeping the result natural.

Your veneer questions answered in plain English
Are veneers a permanent solution?
Veneers are a long-term option, but they are not classed as permanent in the strictest sense. They may need replacing in the future. Many porcelain veneers last 10-15 years or longer with good care, while composite veneers often last around 5-7 years.
What are dental veneers and how do they improve my smile?
Are your teeth stained, chipped, or not aligned on top of each other? Veneers are a good treatment option to consider because they look like natural teeth and don’t require a major procedure. Veneers can also be used to close small gaps when braces are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.
A veneer is a very thin, tooth-coloured piece of porcelain (like a false finger nail, but more durable) that is bonded on top of your own tooth.
Do veneers damage natural teeth?
Not usually. When preparation is needed, we remove a very small amount of enamel using conservative techniques, and we will only recommend veneers if they are suitable for your teeth.
Can I have veneers on just one tooth?
Yes. Some patients choose a single veneer to improve one tooth, while others opt for several veneers to even out their smile.
How do I look after veneers?
Look after them like natural teeth - brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, clean between your teeth daily, and keep up with routine appointments. If you grind your teeth, we may recommend a night guard to protect your veneers.
Will veneers look natural?
They should. We match colour and shape carefully so veneers blend with the surrounding teeth. The goal is a refreshed smile, not an artificial look.
Are veneers available on the NHS in Thornton Heath?
Veneers are generally provided privately unless there is a clear clinical need. If you are unsure, we can explain what is available and help you plan the best option for your smile.
When are veneers a good treatment option?
If your teeth are chipped, stained, slightly uneven, or have small gaps, veneers can be worth considering. They can also help when orthodontic treatment is not suitable or not the route you want to take.
How do veneers work?
A veneer is a thin, tooth-coloured layer that is bonded to the front of your tooth. The shape and shade can be adjusted to improve the overall look of your smile. You can have one veneer or a set as part of a smile makeover.
Can veneers change the shape or position of my teeth?
Are your teeth stained, chipped, or not aligned on top of each other? Veneers are a good treatment option to consider because they look like natural teeth and don’t require a major procedure. Veneers can also be used to close small gaps when braces are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.

I have been a patient at Thornton Heath Dental Surgery for over 10 years, and I can truly say this is the best dental clinic I have ever been to.
I honestly had such a great experience here! Dr. Alia Johab is amazing – she made me feel so comfortable and always takes the time to answer any worries I have.
