Composite Bonding vs Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are laboratory made thin layered shells of porcelain which are applied to the teeth.

They can be used to alter the shape, colour and appearance of teeth and close gaps without orthodontics. Furthermore in situations where teeth straightening is not possible or preferred, tooth adjustments can be made to accommodate minor alignment discrepancies for the perfect smile.

Composite Bonding

  • No Drilling
  • No Injections
  • Hand crafted in the dental chair

Composite materials and techniques have advanced tremendously over the last decade enabling them to last longer and maintain their appearance.

However, porcelain veneers offer significantly longer lifespan, enhanced durability, and superior stain resistance. Composite can also stain over time, whereas porcelain mains its colour for many years.

Porcelain Veneers

  • Long Lasting
  • Optimal aesthetics
  • Hand crafted by lab technician

Porcelain does, however, require minimal tooth removal, which may not be desirable for some as this is irreversible.

The process of porcelain veneer treatment does requires an extra appointment, whereas composite bonding generally can be done in one day (after the initial consultation)

Got my Invisalign and whitening with dr Kunal at the Fleet Street branch and it really has been life changing. He’s given me the confidence to smile and laugh without covering my mouth. Very professional and listens to what i wanted and always exceeded my expectations. Also makes the entire Invisalign journey easy and comfortable as he was always there to answer any questions I had at any time. Highly recommend ruh dental and dr Kunal. It really is the best decision I’ve made. Had so many compliments on my teeth, even by strangers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are veneers a painful treatment?

No, as the tooth preparation (if required at all) is limited to the outer surface of the teeth, which is the non-sensitive part and does not involve the sensitive inner layers. Local anaesthetic can also be used to ensure complete comfort.

Will I need my teeth to be drilled?

There will be minor adjustments to the teeth, but this is minimal, especially if the teeth have been straightened previously. Porcelain veneers require only a thin layer of enamel to be smoothed to achieve an ideal fit.

How will I know if I like the look of veneers?

The dentist providing the veneers will look at the current shape of the teeth, their colour, your facial and gum contours as well as things like lip position and tooth symmetry to make the best decision on the character and profile of the veneers. However, the dental lab can perform a waxed version attached to a study model of your teeth so you can see and even trial the smile before any treatment begins.

How do I keep veneers clean?

Regular maintenance with a hygienist and treating them like you would for any of your natural teeth is best practice, as this allows for them to stay healthy for as long as possible

How long do porcelain veneers really last?

Porcelain veneers typically last 15-20 years, and many last even longer with good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups. Their durability and stain resistance make them one of the longest-lasting cosmetic dental treatments.

What’s the price range of porcelain veneers?

In the UK, porcelain veneers can cost anywhere between £800-£1,200 per tooth, depending on the clinic and complexity of the case. At Ruh Dental, veneers cost £995 per tooth**, with 0% finance available to help spread the veneers teeth price into manageable payments.

Can teeth go bad under veneers?

No, as long as you keep good oral hygiene. The natural tooth remains underneath, protected by the veneer. Problems only occur if plaque builds up around the gumline, so brushing, flossing, and routine check-ups keep the teeth underneath healthy.

Is there a downside to veneers?

The main consideration is that porcelain veneers require a small amount of enamel removal, which is not reversible. However, this is minimal and ensures the veneers look natural and fit seamlessly. For patients looking for a reversible option, composite bonding may be more suitable.
