What are composite veneers?
A composite veneer is a layer of tooth-coloured resin sculpted directly onto the front surface of a tooth by the dentist, then shaped and polished so it blends with the teeth around it. It’s used on teeth that are chipped, worn, stained, a bit uneven or gappy.
Porcelain veneers are made in a laboratory and fitted at a later visit. Composite veneers, by contrast, are usually done in a single appointment with little or no drilling of the natural tooth. That’s why they’re usually reversible.
Are composite veneers the same as composite bonding?
They use the same material and technique. The difference is coverage. Bonding typically repairs or reshapes part of a tooth (an edge or a chip), while a composite veneer covers the whole front surface. At Toothi, edge bonding is £195 per tooth and a full composite veneer is £295 per tooth. See what is composite bonding? and composite edge bonding for the edge-bonding side, or our main composite bonding in Edgware page.

What does the price of composite veneers include?
Every bonding and veneer price at Toothi includes the consultation, the shade match, the treatment itself and a review appointment. Two things are priced separately because not everyone needs them. Whitening beforehand, if you want a brighter base shade to match the composite to, is £250 in practice or £350 with custom home trays. A nightguard, if you grind your teeth, is £195. Nothing else is added after your written quote.
Why do composite veneer prices vary across London?
The headline figure on its own doesn’t tell you much. Four things change it. The first is coverage: an edge repair uses a fraction of the material and time a full-surface veneer does. The second is the composite system itself, which differs in how well it polishes and holds colour. The third is chair time, because sculpting and polishing by hand is what decides whether the result looks natural or bulky. The fourth is what’s included: some published prices cover the consultation and a review appointment, and some don’t. Ask any clinic for the price and the inclusions together, in writing.
Composite or porcelain veneers – which is right for you?
- Composite veneers are completed in one visit, cost less per tooth, usually need no drilling, and are typically reversible. The trade-off is that composite stains and wears faster than porcelain; with good care they can typically last around 4–7 years before they need refreshing or replacing.
- Porcelain veneers are made in a laboratory, very natural-looking and highly stain-resistant, and with good care can typically last around 10–15 years. They cost more (£895 per tooth at Toothi, £5,195 for six) and involve some preparation of the tooth surface.
A common pattern is to start with composite and move to porcelain later. Our veneers page, composite vs porcelain veneers and composite bonding vs veneers compare the two in more detail.
Sometimes a veneer isn’t the right answer. If your teeth are healthy but discoloured, professional teeth whitening may achieve what you want with less treatment. If crowding or gaps are the main issue, straightening with Invisalign first often gives a better long-term result than covering misaligned teeth.
How are composite veneers done?
- Free consultation. We examine your teeth, discuss the look you want and confirm composite veneers are suitable. You receive a written plan with exact costs before anything begins.
- Preparation. Usually none, or only light surface conditioning. Drilling or injections are rarely needed.
- Sculpting. Your dentist layers and shapes the resin on each tooth, matching the shade to your natural teeth.
- Shaping and polishing. The veneers are refined, checked against your bite and polished to a natural gloss. Most cases are completed in a single visit.
- Review. A follow-up appointment to check the bite and re-polish, included in the price.

How do you look after composite veneers?
Composite is more porous than porcelain, so it picks up stains from coffee, red wine, curry and smoking more readily. Brush twice a day, clean between your teeth and keep up your hygiene visits. Go easy on the heavy stainers where you can, and don’t bite pens, nails or ice. If you grind your teeth at night, a nightguard (£195) helps protect the composite and your natural teeth.

What are composite veneers made of?
Composite resin: a tooth-coloured mix of plastic resin and fine glass or ceramic filler, the same family of material used for white fillings. It goes on in layers, is set with a curing light and then polished.
How much does a full set of composite veneers cost?
Most full sets cover the six to ten teeth that show when you smile. At Toothi, six composite veneers are £1,595, eight are £1,995 and ten are £2,395, fixed package prices confirmed in writing after a free consultation.
What is included in the price of composite veneers?
Your consultation, the shade match, the treatment itself and a review appointment. Whitening beforehand (£250 or £350) and a nightguard (£195) are priced separately.
Do composite veneers hurt?
Most patients find the appointment comfortable. There is usually no drilling and no injection, because the resin is added to the tooth surface. If a tooth is sensitive, local anaesthetic can be used.
How long do composite veneers last?
With good care they can typically last around 4–7 years, depending on your bite, habits and maintenance. Composite can also be repaired and re-polished, and a veneer that needs redoing is charged at the same £295 per tooth.
Are composite veneers reversible?
Usually, yes. Because little or no natural tooth is removed, composite veneers can generally be adjusted or removed without permanent change to the tooth underneath.
Can I get composite veneers on the NHS?
Cosmetic treatments such as veneers are not normally available on the NHS, which covers clinically necessary treatment. Toothi is a fully private practice and every fee is published in advance.
