What are Dental Veneers?
As time passes, it’s natural for teeth to lose some of their youthful shine. Everyday habits, such as drinking tea, coffee, red wine, or smoking, can cause staining that diminishes your confidence in your smile. At Vogue Dental, Dr. Aneka offers her signature porcelain veneers, also known as Lumineers, as an exceptional solution for restoring your teeth’s brilliance.
Lumineers are ultra-thin porcelain veneers designed to enhance your smile while maintaining the durability of natural teeth. With a thickness as thin as 0.2mm, Lumineers require minimal alteration to your existing teeth, making the procedure least invasive. Dr. Aneka’s Signature Veneers offer a long-lasting and natural-looking solution for achieving the radiant, confident smile you desire.
What sets Lumineers apart from traditional veneers is their ability to closely mimic the natural characteristics of enamel, making it nearly impossible to distinguish them from your natural teeth. This unique quality allows Lumineers to provide a beautiful, seamless smile that looks and feels completely natural.

Benefits of Ultra Thin Veneers
Optimum Aesthetics
Porcelain Veneers are the top-tier choice for those looking to enhance their smile with cosmetic dentistry. This procedure is a personal and intricate art form that demands the touch of a highly skilled and experienced cosmetic dentist and ceramicist. Enter Dr. Aneka, whose hand-crafted, bespoke smiles and meticulous multiple checkpoints ensure you get the smile of your dreams.
Thanks to their super-thin design, these veneers provide top-notch aesthetics by enhancing the natural beauty of your teeth. You’ll walk away with a personalised smile that lets you infuse any desired features – whether it’s crafting a wider smile or adding a touch of translucency to the edges.
Minimally Invasive
Ultra-thin veneers, also known as ‘no-prep veneers,’ are the cutting-edge trend in cosmetic dentistry, requiring little to no drilling. These sleek veneers are much thinner than their traditional counterparts, demanding minimal tooth preparation. At Vogue Dental, we prioritise preserving your outer enamel layer to ensure a rock-solid bond between your tooth and the veneer. This strong bond is essential to avoid any potential failures.
Often measuring just 0.3 to 0.5 mm in thickness – about as thin as a contact lens – these ultra-thin veneers gracefully sit on the outer layer of your tooth, offering a seamless and stunning transformation.
Long Lasting
Veneers can dazzle for 10 to 20 years, but keeping them in top-notch condition requires regular maintenance. Stick to your scheduled check-ups and hygiene appointments to ensure your smile stays healthy and radiant. Plus, with Dr Aneka’s Signature Veneers, you get the added peace of mind with a special Guarantee.
Protecting and Restoring Enamel
Porcelain veneers aren’t just about enhancing aesthetics – they’re about revitalising your smile. Dr Aneka has a special passion for restoring worn teeth, traditionally treated with full-coverage crowns, which can be more invasive. Porcelain veneers are crafted to replenish enamel lost over the years from erosion and grinding (bruxism). Once restored, these veneers not only boost functionality but also turn back the clock on your smile. Porcelain is the ideal material for this transformation, perfectly mimicking the properties of your natural enamel.
Little Maintenance
If you’re looking for alternatives to porcelain veneers, composite bonding is a fantastic short-to-medium-term option, offering a smile upgrade that lasts 3-5 years. However, porcelain has its own standout benefits. Unlike natural teeth or composite, porcelain doesn’t discolour or stain. It’s also stronger than enamel – the toughest material in the body – resulting in fewer breakages and failures. So while composite bonding is a great option, porcelain veneers bring unparalleled durability and lasting brilliance to your smile.
Natural Results
At Vogue Dental, we believe your smile makeover should be an enhancement of your natural beauty, restoring what time may have taken away. Our premium porcelain veneers are crafted to look incredibly natural and blend seamlessly into your smile line, ensuring a flawless, radiant result that feels uniquely you.

Questions you may have about this treatment
Dental veneers are used for aesthetic and functional purposes. Dr Aneka often recommends this option to restore enamel which has been worn away over the years. The most common scenarios in which veneers are beneficial includes teeth grinding, acid erosion, and toothbrush associated abrasion that often leaves the teeth chipped, worn down, discoloured or stained. Porcelain veneers are often more natural-looking than composite bonding which is why they are often a popular choice when composite bonding needs to be replaced. Porcelain veneers have a premium aesthetic finish, and are low maintenance as they do not chip or stain, and are longer lasting. This option is also favourable when a patient wishes to restore a beautiful smile. They can be used to hide common imperfections such as chipped teeth, cracked teeth or when gaps are present, protecting them from further damage.
Veneers can be made from either porcelain or a composite resin material, and Dr Aneka uses only the finest materials and branded products. Both options can be custom-made to match the natural colouring of your teeth. However, porcelain veneers are generally tougher than composite veneers, and are less likely to chip. A good dental routine can mean that porcelain veneers can last for many years, compared to composite veneers that will typically need to be replaced after 12-15 years.
As a specialist in dental veneers, Dr Aneka offers tailored solutions for each patient’s smile, leveraging her expertise to ensure natural aesthetics, superior quality, and transformative results. At Vogue Dental, the process of fitting dental veneers begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr Aneka. After discussing your goals and expectations, impressions or digital scans of the teeth are taken to design custom veneers. Dr Aneka meticulously plans the shape, size, and shade of the veneers to achieve the desired outcome.
During the next appointment, a small amount of enamel is gently removed from the front surface of the teeth to accommodate the veneers. Temporary veneers may be placed while the permanent ones are being crafted in the laboratory. Once the custom veneers are ready, they are bonded to the teeth using a strong dental adhesive. Dr Aneka ensures proper fit, bite alignment, and natural aesthetics before finalising the procedure.
You will receive thorough instructions on caring for your new veneers, including maintaining good oral hygiene and scheduling regular dental check-ups. With Dr Aneka’s expertise and attention to detail, Vogue Dental provides a seamless and personalised experience, resulting in stunning and long-lasting smile transformations.
Taking good care of your dental veneers can help them to be long-lasting, with some porcelain veneers known to last on average 12-15 years but some can even last as long as 30 years. Dr Aneka will ensure you receive in-depth information on caring for your veneers, which may include: maintaining good dental hygiene practices, cleaning with a soft brush, avoiding hard foods, avoiding teeth grinding (Vogue Dental can help control this issue), avoiding foods that are likely to stain, and visiting Vogue Dental (or your usual dentist) for regular check-ups.
Dr Aneka and the team at Vogue Dental welcome all patients, even if you are registered at another practice. Located in Chislehurst, Kent, we have many patients visiting us from Bromley, Orpington, Sidcup, Foxbury, Avery Hill, Bexleyheath, Bexley, Beckenham, Elmstead, Swanley, Kent & the surrounding areas of London.
