How Much for Full Set of Veneers? – The Cost Estimation

30th November 2022

How much a set of Veneers cost will depend on the kind of treatment you need. Different dental practices will have different charges. The charges may also vary depending on the expertise and skill of the dentist and the master dental technician who will ultimately make the veneers)

In this article, we will cover the main factors that impact the cost so that you can go to the dentist informed.

These figures only act as a guide and should not be taken at face value.

How Much for Full Set of Veneers? – The Cost Estimation

1. Material used

Material used
Dental veneers are usually made of strong porcelain material. But there are other alternatives as well.

Lumineers cost
Dental Lumineers cost from £800 to £1200 per tooth. Lumineers are particular type of porcelain used for veneers which do not need drilling and therefore not suitable for everyone .

They require less preparation to apply to your teeth and are also known as no-prep veneers.

We recommend them for people who don’t have severely stained or damaged teeth and are short on time.

Porcelain Veneers cost
Handmade feltspathic Porcelain Veneers cost start from £1,200 per tooth.

If you want your teeth to look extremely natural, your teeth are straight and have time on your hands go for handmade feltspathic porcelain veneers.

Porcelain veneers are permanently bonded to your teeth and not reversible like Lumineers. Hence, they also last longer than other veneers.

They can actually last about twenty to thirty years with proper care and maintenance.

Ultrathin Veneers cost
Ultrathin Veneers cost £800 to £1,200 per tooth.

If you want to change the symmetry and shape of your teeth, or correct minor misalignment, go for ultrathin veneers.

The major plus point is that it does not require as much reduction of enamel as porcelain veneers.

Composite veneers cost
Composite veneers is one of the cheapest options on the market starting from only £350 – £550

In this procedure, a composite resin material is applied directly to your teeth. This isn’t a minimally invasive procedure.

However, the material is weaker than porcelain and may chip often. Thus, you need to be replaced or repaired more frequently than porcelain veneers.

Zirconia veneers cost
The price of fitting a zirconia veneer for single teeth can range anywhere between £675 to £1200.

Zirconium is a metal (Zr). In terms of its physical and chemical characteristics, it is extremely strong and somewhat similar to titanium.

It is dubbed as “ceramic steel” as it’s the strongest ceramic material around. With proper care, they can last between 10 to 20 years with proper care.

Here is how it compares to porcelain veneers. Learn more about this fairly new metal.

Emax veneers cost
Emax veneers are thin pieces of porcelain and are placed over the top of your real teeth. They can cost anywhere between £600-£900. They are very strong and a made via a computerised milling process and then finished by hand

If you have straight teeth and are looking to change the shape and size of their teeth, we recommend going for this material.

These veneers are 0.5mm thick.

2. Veneers cost based on number

Veneers cost based on number
As you have read above, veneers are charged per tooth. A full set of veneers will cost you the price of one tooth multiplied by the number of teeth you have.

To reduce the costs of your dental treatment, you can get veneers only for a few teeth. Usually veneers are only applied on teeth that are visible.

You can consult with your dentist to see which teeth will need veneers.

Alternatively, you can get better material veneers for teeth that are visible and need straightening. For other teeth, you can get cheaper veneers. Just ask your dentist if it will be possible.

3. Dental health


Once your cosmetic dentist inspects your teeth for putting veneers, there might be other problems that arise. For example, treatment for tooth decay or gum disease before veneers can be fitted.

So, you will have to pay for those additional treatments.

4. Other factors that influence veneers cost/h3>
These are a broad set of factors that can impact the cost as well.

The amount of preparation necessary to lay the best foundation (patients suffering from gum disease will require prior treatment).
The difficulty of the smile design varies depending on the sort of smile required. Some smiles require more extensive labour than others.
The overall condition of the gums and teeth.
Correcting damaging bite characteristics is necessary to achieve a stable and harmonious bite, which will help your treatment last as long as possible.
The teeth’s alignment, contour, and colour before treatment.

Why should you make the investment?

Dental health
We know these expenses sound like a lot. But, they are worth it. You need to think of it as an investment whose benefits you are going to reap in the next 10-20 years.

A lot of people are tempted to go abroad for treatment because dental treatment costs in the UK are 70% higher than in countries such as Turkey, Hungary, and Slovakia. However in the long-run, the treatment saves money. For example, good quality veneers won’t go through as much wear and tear, last longer and you won’t need to pay to replace the,

Cut down on your veneers cost
A lot of dental practices offer memberships that help you reduce costs. At Natural Smiles, we offer up to 15% on discount on veneers. Compare the prices for members vs non members.

You can book your free consultation at Natural Smiles, and save even more money.

Dental veneers usually aren’t covered by protection since they’re viewed as a therapeutic method. Hence, you should consider asking the dental practice about payment plans.
