Christmas is coming, but there’s still time to celebrate with a beaming, bright smile! With our incredible veneer systems, we can give you a brand new smile in perfect time for the festive season.

At Harley Street Dental Studio, located at 52 Harley Street in London, we understand that the festive season brings countless opportunities to smile—from family gatherings to office parties, from Christmas photos to New Year celebrations. Our founder and lead cosmetic dentist, Dr Mark Hughes, has dedicated over two decades to perfecting the art of smile transformation, helping patients achieve their dream smiles when it matters most.

“Dentistry exists at the meeting point of art and science,” explains Dr Hughes, whose philosophy has shaped our approach to veneer treatment since establishing the practice in 2004. “Every smile we create is a unique masterpiece, carefully crafted to complement each patient’s individual features and personality.”

Understanding Dental Veneers: The Foundation of Your New Smile

Veneers are a hugely popular cosmetic treatment. Once associated solely with Hollywood stars and the rich and famous, veneers are now available to everyone. These wafer-thin shells, which are usually made from porcelain, are bonded to the surface of the natural teeth to create a spectacular new smile.

Typically, veneer treatment requires two treatment sessions, around 2 weeks apart. During the first session, your teeth will be prepared and moulds will be created to form your bespoke veneers. During the second session, the veneers will be applied to the tooth surface and then secured.

This streamlined process represents the culmination of decades of advancement in cosmetic dentistry. Dr Hughes, having placed over 20,000 porcelain veneers throughout his career, has witnessed and contributed to this evolution firsthand. His extensive experience, combined with over 3,000 hours of postgraduate training around the globe, ensures that every veneer placement at our Harley Street practice meets the highest international standards.

The precision required for veneer treatment cannot be overstated. Each veneer must be meticulously designed to achieve the perfect balance between strength, aesthetics, and longevity. This is where Dr Hughes’ unique expertise truly shines—as one of only 16 dentists worldwide to hold Accredited Membership of the British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, he brings an unparalleled level of skill and artistry to every case.

Our Award-Winning Veneer Systems

We are delighted to offer our clients in London and beyond a sensational selection of veneer systems, including:

Da Vinci Veneers

The glamour puss of the veneer world, Da Vinci veneers are famed for putting the Hollywood smile on the map. These porcelain veneers are crafted in California, and they’re an ideal choice for anyone looking for that megawatt smile.

Lumineers by Cerinate

Lumineers are a unique type of veneer made from patented pressed Cerinate porcelain. They are much thinner than other veneers, but they’re also up to twice as strong. As Lumineers are so delicate and thin, they can also be bonded directly onto the tooth surface with no need for intensive preparation.

MACveneers

MACveneers are a perfect match for anyone looking for a radiant, natural-looking smile. These veneers are coloured from within, and they are incredibly durable and hard-wearing.

The variety of veneer systems available reflects our commitment to providing truly personalised treatment options. Dr Hughes carefully selects the most appropriate veneer type based on each patient’s specific needs, facial structure, and desired outcome. This bespoke approach has contributed to our recognition as “Best Aesthetic Practice in the UK” by the Smile Awards, amongst numerous other accolades.

Each veneer system offers distinct advantages, and Dr Hughes’ extensive experience with all major veneer brands ensures that patients receive expert guidance in selecting the perfect option for their individual circumstances. Whether you’re seeking the dramatic transformation possible with Da Vinci veneers or the conservative approach offered by Lumineers, our expertise guarantees exceptional results.

The Harley Street Dental Studio Advantage

What sets our veneer treatment apart is the combination of world-class expertise and genuine patient care that defines our practice. As part of the award-winning Harley Street Dental Group, we’ve built our reputation on the principle of “Relationship Based, Patient Centred, and Comprehensive Care”—a philosophy that Dr Hughes established when he founded the practice with a clear vision for excellence.

Our Christmas veneer programme is designed specifically for patients who want to look their absolute best during the festive season. The timing works perfectly:

• Consultation in early December: Detailed smile analysis and treatment planning
• Preparation appointment mid-December: Tooth preparation and impression taking
• Final placement before Christmas: Your new smile ready for all festive celebrations
• New Year confidence: Step into the new year with renewed self-assurance

Dr Hughes’ approach to veneer treatment extends far beyond technical skill. “I believe in providing relationship-based, patient-centred care,” he explains. “Every patient who sits in my chair deserves not just technical excellence, but genuine understanding of their hopes and concerns about their smile.”

This philosophy is evident in every aspect of our service, from the initial consultation through to aftercare. Our patients consistently praise the comfortable, luxurious environment we’ve created at 52 Harley Street, where cutting-edge technology meets old-fashioned personal attention.

Determining Which Veneers Are Best for You

Every patient is unique, and some have a different perception of perfect to others. If you’d like more information about our veneers, or you’re keen to explore all your options, why not give us a call and organise a consultation? Our dentists will be able to make suggestions based on your personal preferences.

The selection process for veneers involves careful consideration of multiple factors:

• Lifestyle requirements: Do you need maximum durability or minimal preparation?
• Aesthetic goals: Are you seeking dramatic transformation or subtle enhancement?
• Existing dental condition: What preparation work might be required?
• Timeline considerations: How quickly do you need your new smile?
• Budget parameters: Which option provides the best value for your investment?

Dr Hughes’ comprehensive consultation process includes advanced digital imaging, allowing you to preview your potential results before treatment begins. This technology, combined with his artistic expertise and technical precision, ensures that your expectations  are not just met but exceeded.

Your Journey to a Perfect Christmas Smile

The festive season provides the perfect motivation for smile enhancement, but the benefits extend far beyond Christmas celebrations. Patients who invest in veneer treatment often report increased confidence in professional settings, improved social interactions, and a renewed enthusiasm for photographs and social media.

Our streamlined veneer process means that there’s still time to achieve your dream smile before the festivities begin. With Dr Hughes’ expertise and our advanced veneer systems, you can transform your smile in just two comfortable appointments, emerging with the confidence to smile brilliantly throughout the Christmas season and beyond.

The investment in your smile is an investment in yourself—one that pays dividends every time you laugh, speak, or simply smile with confidence. As an early advocate of “5-star dentistry” in the UK, Dr Hughes has built our entire practice around the principle that exceptional dental care should feel as luxurious as it is effective.
