Porcelain Veneers in McKennell Dental Practice
Getting the smile of your dreams!
Porcelain Veneers—an Overview
Do you have slightly tipped or overlapped front teeth? Or are the tooth stains too stubborn and old and teeth whitening treatments are not working? In both cases, fixing them with dental crowns may seem too extensive. Thus, modern dentistry offers one treatment that offers the best of both worlds. Porcelain veneers in McKennell Dental Practice combine the unmatched aesthetics of dental crowns and the non-invasive and conservative nature of tooth fillings in one procedure.
What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells composed of high-quality, high-strength dental porcelain. These are affixed to the front surfaces of your teeth to hide defects and fill gaps/damage to improve the appearance of your smile. They look like natural teeth with similar translucency, colour, and texture. Porcelain veneers for teeth are strong—and last for many years.
Do You Need Dental Veneers?
Here are some situations where porcelain veneers are useful:
- Mending small dental issues, such as chips and cracks.
- Fill in the spaces between your teeth.
- Covering tooth discolourations that are resistant to whitening treatments.
- Aligning uneven or slightly crooked teeth.
The Types of Porcelain Veneers
There are different types of dental veneers, including:
- Traditional porcelain veneers: These are porcelain dental veneers that are custom-made, durable and stain-resistant. They are manufactured in a dental laboratory using the specific moulds of your teeth.
- No-prep veneers: These quick veneers need minimal to no modification of the natural tooth—and can be put directly to the tooth surface using dental glues.
- Composite veneers: These offer low-cost solutions. They look like veneers but are made in the clinic with tooth-bonding composite resin. They are best used for temporary or minor dental repairs.
We regularly provide consultations and porcelain veneers treatments to patients from Victoria, Pimlico, and Westminster.

What Our Patients Say
I was anxious about the removal of a molar with old root canal treatment but I need not have worried. Dr Lucie Savatier and her assistant were brilliant and so kind. I was concerned when the practice changed ownership but I am more than happy with the very high standard of care by Dr Lucie. Many thanks.
Ask for Dr Shima, the professional, gentle and kind dentist who restored my teeth. I am so grateful that I found you; can’t thank you enough.
