Revitalise your smile with thin and highly aesthetic veneers in Ealing – book your consultation today!
Book your consultationVeneers are thin tooth-coloured shells that are fixed to the front surface of your teeth to improve appearance or cover damage. They are a quick and very effective cosmetic dental treatment, giving you a natural-looking, strong and confident smile you can be proud of.
Veneers can be used to cover a wide range of issues, including discolouration, chips, cracks and even to close small gaps and change the size or shape of teeth. At W5 Dental, we use the APT technique for our veneer cases. This ensures you keep as much of your natural tooth structure as possible, and in many cases we don’t need to remove any enamel from your teeth to accommodate the placement of the veneer and achieve an incredible result.

At W5 Dental, we are passionate about using the best technology and techniques available to bring you the best results. The APT (Aesthetic Pre-evaluative Temporaries) method enables us to show you an accurate preview of your new smile, which is physically placed over your existing teeth. Using APT, we can ensure you are completely happy with the look and make any necessary corrections before your natural teeth are prepared. The APT technique can also minimise tooth preparation, precisely showing us exactly how much enamel, if any, needs to be removed. We are proud to use APT, giving our patients an enhanced experience and the best possible treatment outcome.
Choosing to enhance your smile with cosmetic dental treatments can be expensive, which is why we are pleased to offer flexible payment options that can help. Spread the cost with manageable monthly payments, subject to suitability. Get in touch with our friendly team if you’d like to know more – your newly confident smile could be closer than you think!
Find out moreThe best way to look after your veneers is to treat them with the same level of care as your natural teeth, including brushing and flossing regularly to keep the teeth underneath the veneer healthy and strong. You should also make sure you attend your regular dental check-up appointments, so your dentist can keep an eye on your veneers.
Veneers are tough restorations, but they can still become damaged if they are not treated with care. Try to cut up hard foods before you eat them, and avoid biting into very hard, crusty or sticky food. It’s also best to avoid opening anything with your teeth or biting your fingernails, as this could cause damage. We will give you some personalised advice, but please talk to us if you have any worries or concerns.
Veneers have the potential to last a long time without issue, provided they are treated with care. Typically, porcelain veneers last up to 15 years. If any tooth enamel has been removed in order to fit your veneers, replacements will need to be fitted to continue to protect and cover your prepared teeth.
Having veneers fitted shouldn’t be painful, especially using the APT technique. If a small amount of your tooth structure needs to be removed to best accommodate your veneer, we can use local anaesthetic to ensure you remain comfortable. You may feel some sensitivity when your veneers are first fitted, but this is temporary and will quickly fade.
Many people are concerned that veneers will look too false or not sit properly in their mouths. However, modern veneers are highly natural-looking, as we only need to remove a thin layer of tooth enamel, if any, for them to be fitted. We can use veneers in your desired tooth shade to give you the beautiful smile you’ve always wanted.
Veneers are made from stain-resistant materials, and will stay white if they are looked after correctly. You may wish to avoid consuming too many dark foods and drinks, but regular oral hygiene care at home and routine professional polishes from your hygienist will keep your veneers sparkling.
We are situated next door to Ealing Common tube station, which is on the Piccadilly and District lines.
