How Much Does A Teeth Makeover Cost?
We aim to make cosmetic dentistry simple, transparent and easy to understand. A smile makeover can include a combination of treatments such as veneers, composite bonding, teeth whitening, Invisalign or dental implants. Because every patient starts from a different point, the total cost varies, but this guide explains typical prices in the UK, what affects the cost, and how to get an accurate quote.

Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest way to improve my smile?
Teeth whitening and simple composite bonding are usually the most affordable options.
Is a smile makeover permanent?
Composite bonding lasts around 3–5 years, porcelain veneers can last 10–15 years or more, and implants can last decades with good care.
Are veneers or composite bonding better?
Veneers last longer and are more stain-resistant. Bonding is more affordable but may require maintenance.
Does the NHS offer smile makeovers?
Cosmetic dentistry is almost always private, because it isn’t medically necessary.
How long does a smile makeover take?
It can be as quick as one visit for bonding, or several weeks for veneers. Invisalign and implant treatment take longer.
Can I combine cosmetic treatments?
Yes. Most smile makeovers involve combining treatments to achieve the best overall result.
