If you are looking for natural, healthy looking teeth for a confident smile, then veneers might be the answer for you

For this reason, we only use tooth-coloured, mercury-free white fillings on all teeth, created from contemporary materials and designed to blend in with your natural tooth colour. For minor cosmetic changes to the shape of front teeth we can also use the same technique which is often called bonding or instant veneers.

What are white fillings?

These are filings that are used instead of silver fillings. These are placed directly into your mouth, more than one filling can be placed at a time. They look like your natural tooth and do not contain any mercury.

What are veneers?

Veneers are very thin shells of porcelain that are stuck to the front of your teeth to create a fantastic smile. Veneers are used to improve the shape of teeth.

What are crowns and inlays?

A crown covers the whole tooth to improve its appearance and function. The type of crown used depends on why and where it’s being placed. An inlay is made outside of the mouth either by a dental technician or using our Cerec system. An inlay is advised then the hole in the tooth is too big for a direct filling but a crown is not advised. It is like a piece of a puzzle that is made to fit perfectly for your tooth.

How much do veneers cost?

Veneers cost from £1,452 and white fillings are from £218. For information about our other treatments and prices, view our dental fees.

We want to build a relationship with you, which is why we don't offer online appointment booking with our clinicians, we'd prefer to speak with you to ensure we give you the best possible information. You can however book an introduction call with our Treatment Co-ordinator to discuss any questions you may have at a time that's convenient to you.

Top 10 FAQs

1. What are dental veneers?

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells—typically made of porcelain or composite resin—designed to cover the front surface of teeth. They are used to improve the appearance of teeth by correcting discolouration, chips, gaps, or slight misalignment.

2. What are white fillings?

White fillings, also known as composite fillings, are tooth-coloured restorations used to repair decayed, chipped, or damaged teeth. They blend seamlessly with your natural tooth shade, making them a popular alternative to traditional metal (amalgam) fillings.

3. How long do veneers and white fillings last?

Porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years or more with proper care, while composite veneers tend to last around 5 to 7 years. White fillings generally last 5 to 10 years, depending on the size, location, and how well they’re maintained.

4. Are veneers and white fillings painful to have done?

Both treatments are typically painless. Local anaesthetic may be used during white fillings or tooth preparation for veneers to ensure comfort. Some patients experience mild sensitivity afterwards, but this usually settles quickly.

5. What are the main benefits of choosing veneers or white fillings?

Both veneers and white fillings offer excellent cosmetic and functional benefits. Veneers can dramatically enhance your smile by improving the shape, colour, and alignment of your teeth, while white fillings restore decayed or damaged teeth discreetly, blending naturally with your existing teeth. Both treatments are minimally invasive and help preserve your natural tooth structure.

6. Can anyone get veneers or white fillings?

Most adults are suitable candidates, but a full dental assessment is necessary. Veneers may not be suitable for individuals with excessive tooth grinding (bruxism), poor oral health, or insufficient enamel. White fillings are suitable for most cases of minor to moderate tooth damage or decay.

7. Do veneers damage your natural teeth?

Some enamel removal is usually required for porcelain veneers, which is irreversible. Composite veneers often need minimal or no preparation. A dentist will always aim to preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible and discuss all implications before treatment.

8. Will white fillings stain or discolour over time?

Composite fillings can stain over time, especially with frequent exposure to coffee, tea, red wine, or smoking. However, they are easily polished or replaced if needed. Porcelain veneers are more stain-resistant than natural enamel.

9. What’s the difference between porcelain and composite veneers?

Porcelain veneers are more durable, stain-resistant, and have a highly natural appearance, but they are more costly and usually involve more preparation. Composite veneers are more affordable and can be applied in one visit but are slightly less durable and may stain more easily.

10. Where can I get veneers and white fillings in Portishead?

There are several reputable dental clinics in Portishead offering cosmetic treatments, including veneers and white fillings. Choose a GDC-registered dentist with experience in aesthetic dentistry and good patient feedback.

💚 Looking after yourself goes beyond your smile.

At Evolve Dentistry, we believe that feeling good is about caring for your whole body and mind. That’s why we love connecting with other local businesses in Portishead that share our passion for health and wellbeing.

This month, we’re delighted to feature Jessica from @flexe_pilates , a local Reformer Pilates studio, on our website.

Have you ever thought about trying Pilates but felt a little nervous about taking that first step?

Jessica has written a lovely beginner-friendly guide that answers some of the questions you might have, including:

✨ What actually happens in a Reformer Pilates class?
✨ Do you need to be fit or flexible to start?
✨ What should you expect from your first session?
✨ How often should beginners practise Pilates?

Whether you’re looking to build strength, improve mobility or simply find a little time for yourself, it’s a great introduction.

We’re proud to support our local Portishead community and share advice from people who are passionate about helping others feel their best.

What do we hope you remember after visiting Evolve?

Not just whether your teeth feel cleaner or whether your appointment ran on time.

We hope you remember being listened to. Having the chance to ask questions. Feeling comfortable enough to say if something worries you. And knowing that decisions about your care were made with you, not simply for you.

In this short video, Carol shares what she hopes people take away from their time with us.

It’s a lovely reminder that the way you feel during an appointment matters every bit as much as the dentistry itself. 💚

Do you clench or grind your teeth without realising?

For some people it happens during sleep. Others notice themselves clenching when they’re concentrating or under pressure.

Over time, tooth grinding can contribute to worn or chipped teeth, jaw discomfort, headaches or sensitivity.

Richard explains some of the common reasons people grind their teeth and why it’s worth mentioning if you think you might be doing it.

There isn’t one solution that’s right for everybody, so the first step is understanding what’s happening in your individual case.
