Improve stained, gapped, chipped, small, crooked and uneven teeth and create a straighter, whiter-looking smile in just one visit with composite veneers that are shaped by hand at Castle Dental in Lincoln City Centre.
Create a straighter, whiter-looking smile in just one visit with composite veneers that are shaped by hand at Castle Dental in Lincoln City Centre.
Start with a consultation at our cosmetic dental practice in Lincoln, where our dentists can assess your smile and your suitability to improve your visible smile with composite veneers.
Composite veneers cover your entire tooth, offering a full smile makeover rather than a small repair. They can improve a wide range of concerns, from crooked and stained teeth to gapped and small teeth.
Composite veneers are shaped by hand directly on your teeth chairside, and a full makeover is often completed in just one afternoon. Plus, they’re a reversible, no-prep alternative to porcelain.
Unlike composite bonding, which touches up the tooth’s edges or covers one small chip, composite veneers are sculpted by hand chairside to cover the entire tooth surface to improve the overall appearance of your smile, whether we’re resizing, reshaping or refining a whole new smile.
As they conceal the tooth underneath, they’re an ideal option for patients who want to create a brighter, more balanced smile and hide imperfections like uneven, worn, chipped, short, narrow or discoloured teeth.
And at Castle Dental in Lincoln, composite veneers start from £325 per tooth, so for a full smile makeover, patients tend to never pay more than £2,600 (eight composite veneers for wide smiles).
Unlike porcelain veneers, composite veneers are sculpted onto the tooth, not adhered as the dentist applies the resin, shapes it by hand and then polishes it so it blends with the rest of your smile. This makes composite veneers a faster, more affordable and more conservative treatment option than porcelain.

| Consultation | Assess whether composite veneers are suitable and whether your teeth are immediately ready for treatment. |

| Composite placement | Tooth-coloured resin is applied directly to the front of the teeth chairside. |
| Hand shaping | The composite is shaped by hand to improve tooth length, edges and curves. |
