Frequently Asked Questions.

At CosMediSmile, our premium Porcelain Veneers are priced from just $874 per tooth*. Whilst others are known to charge up to $3,500 per tooth, we believe that a high-quality smile makeover, shouldn’t cost the earth.

*Per tooth price of $874 is based on purchasing a minimum package of 8 teeth. The per unit price for individual teeth starts from $1,049 per tooth.

Porcelain Veneers are ultra-thin, ceramic porcelain covers that fit directly over your natural teeth. Designed to cosmetically enhance your smile, Veneers can be used to address a range of dental concerns, restoring the shape, colour and alignment of your smile.

Veneers can be made from two materials:
1. Porcelain Veneers are made from ceramic porcelain.
2. Composite Veneers are made from a resin material.

You will need three appointments to get Porcelain Veneers. The first appointment will be a consultation, the second appointment will be to prepare the Veneers and the final appointment will be to apply them. The entire process will take approximately 3 weeks.

Porcelain Veneers can be used to address a variety of dental concerns including:
- Stained & Discoloured Teeth
- Teeth Gaps
- Broken, Cracked & Chipped Teeth
- Misaligned & Crooked Teeth
- Small or Short Teeth
- Thin Enamel
- Teeth Crowding & Overbite

In most cases, yes. Porcelain Veneers can be a great way to restore teeth that are crooked, chipped or broken. Our free smile assessment can determine if the structure of your teeth are right for Veneers.

There’s a misconception that Porcelain Veneers require your teeth to be shaved right down to ‘fangs’ before application. This is not the case. For most clients, minimal teeth shaving is required in order to prepare the surface for the Porcelain Veneers to grip effectively. In cases of very crooked teeth, or if you want to significantly reduce the size of your teeth, then more shaving may be required.

Yes, Porcelain Veneers are a permanent smile solution. Whilst the Porcelain Veneers themselves will need to be replaced in up to 20 years’ time, the procedure itself is irreversible. 

Porcelain Veneers can last for up to 20 years, provided they are well looked after.

At CosMediSmile, our Porcelain Veneers process can take as little as one week.   You’ll need four appointments – one for your smile design, one for your teeth preparation, one for your veneers to be applied, and one final follow up to refine and perfect your smile.

Choosing the best Veneers for your smile transformation can be overwhelming and understanding the differences between Composite and Porcelain Veneers is important.

Veneers and Crowns are both great solutions for a smile makeover. The difference between them is the area of your teeth they cover. Veneers cover just the front surface of your teeth, whereas a Crown covers the entire surface of your teeth.

Yes, high quality, custom-crafted porcelain veneers do look natural. Our porcelain veneers are crafted to reflect light, just as natural tooth enamel does. CosMediSmile technology enables you to see the outcome of your smile before you start treatment, so you can rest assured of natural looking results. 

No. Veneer treatments are accompanied by local anaesthetic to ensure your comfort throughout.  Some clients do experience some slight tooth sensitivity in the days following their veneer fitting, but this sensitivity generally settles quickly.

To best way to care for your veneers is to maintain good oral hygiene –  brush twice daily using a soft brush, floss and rinse with alcohol-free antiseptic mouthwash. Wear a night-guard, protect your teeth during high contact sports and avoid smoking and other activities that can stain. For more care tips visit our blog
