Common Questions About Cosmetic Dentistry
How long does composite bonding last?
Typically 5–8 years with normal care. It can be polished, repaired, or topped up without removing any natural tooth.
Will porcelain veneers look natural?
Yes. They're custom-made to match your face and skin tone. The hand-sculpted preview means you approve the look before anything is lab-made.
Is the treatment painful?
Composite bonding usually needs little or no removal of natural tooth. Dr Walmsley will explain what your treatment involves at your consultation. Porcelain veneers need minimal preparation, carried out under local anaesthetic so you’re comfortable.
Can I see what my smile will look like first?
Yes. Dr Walmsley hand-sculpts a temporary composite preview directly onto your teeth at the consultation. You wear it home for a day or two before committing.
Do you offer payment plans?
0% finance is available on all treatments over £1,000, subject to standard credit approval.
How long does the full process take?
Composite bonding: usually one visit. Porcelain veneers: 2–3 visits over 2–4 weeks. Combined smile makeovers: 4–8 weeks depending on scope.
Will this damage my real teeth?
No. Composite bonding adds material to your existing tooth — nothing is removed. Porcelain veneers require less than 0.5mm of preparation.
What if I'm not happy with the result?
We don't move from the composite preview to permanent treatment until you've approved the look. Refinements after that are included in the price.
