Transforming Smiles with Porcelain Veneers.
Flawless results.
At Brisbane Smile Boutique, our Porcelain Veneers represent the height of Artistic Dentistry — blending masterful craftsmanship with advanced digital precision. These ultra-thin ceramic shells are carefully bonded to the front of your teeth, enhancing their colour, shape, and alignment with remarkably natural-looking results.
Each veneer is custom-designed by our Aesthetic Dentists in collaboration with Master Ceramists to harmonise perfectly with your unique facial features. Crafted from high-quality, pressed porcelain, they are non-porous, stain-resistant, and reflect light just like natural enamel — giving you a confident, radiant smile that stands the test of time.
The Brisbane Smile Boutique Veneer Process
Your journey begins with a comprehensive smile consultation, where we assess your goals, tooth structure, and facial harmony.
Step 1 – Smile Assessment & Digital Preview
We take detailed photographs, 3D scans, and discuss your desired outcome. Using digital smile design, you’ll see a simulation of your future smile before any treatment begins.
Step 2 – Veneer Design & Custom Fabrication
Your veneers are individually designed for shape, colour, and symmetry. They are crafted in a premium dental laboratory to ensure superior fit, strength, and aesthetics.
Step 3 – Precise Placement
Once your veneers are ready, we bond them securely using advanced adhesive technology. Because they are ultra-thin, only minimal adjustment (if any) to your natural tooth is needed.
Step 4 – Final Polish & Smile Reveal
After careful finishing and polishing, you’ll leave our clinic with a confident, natural-looking smile that reflects who you truly are.
NO PREPARATION VENEERS
No prep veneers are ultra thin and designed to be placed without altering the natural tooth structure. At Brisbane Smile Boutique, this conservative option may be suitable for select patients who already have ideal tooth positioning or minimal crowding. These veneers are bonded directly onto the enamel without any drilling or reduction, maintaining the integrity of your original teeth while still achieving a polished, natural-looking result.
No preparation veneers are crafted with the same artistic and functional care as traditional veneers and provide a reversible-like approach for enhancing your smile with minimal intervention.

Diagnosis and treatment planning.
Your aesthetic dentist will examine your teeth to make sure dental veneers are appropriate for you. A series of smile design photos will be taken with professional cameras for computer design and analysis of your smile in 2 and 3 dimensions. Digital scans of your teeth will be taken to analyse your bite to ensure that porcelain veneers will match in to your bite for a durable solution
Preparation. To prepare a tooth for a veneer, your aesthetic dentist may refine half a millimetre of enamel from the tooth surface, which is an amount equal to the thickness of the veneer to be added to the tooth surface, and scan your teeth and bite. In some circumstances no tooth structure is removed, in a procedure known as no preparation (or no prep) veneers, however this is dependent on a number of factors, such as your bite and the angle that the tooth sits at. The scan is sent out to our master ceramist team who will design your new smile on the computer, by lining up your smile and analysing your facial proportions in collaboration with your aesthetic dentist, and 3D models are the printed with a smile mock up index so that you can see your new smile come to life in a process called smile trial or try in. Our master ceramists then press and layer the porcelain veneers in the lab within 3 weeks. In the meantime, your cosmetic dentist will place temporary veneers for you so you will look fine until your new porcelain veneers are completed. It is important to be gentle and careful with temporaries, since they are designed to be removed some weeks after they are first placed for you.
Bonding. Your tooth will be cleaned and prepared for seamless bonding and a specialised cement is applied to the veneer which is is then placed on your tooth. Once properly positioned on the tooth, your cosmetic dentist will apply a light beam to the dental veneer, which activates the cement, causing it to set.

With excellent home care and regular dentist and dental hygiene appointments, porcelain veneers can last 10 years of longer. It is important to brush twice a day, floss daily and to limit sugary foods and drinks, just as you would with natural tooth structure. Your dentist and dental hygienist need to check on your porcelain veneers every 6 months, along with professional scaling and cleaning to ensure that the veneers stay in excellent condition. Your dentist may recommend a night guard to protect the porcelain in your bite and to prevent wear and tear from clenching or grinding from affecting chipping or debonding them.

The fee is $2,100 per veneer (Item Code 556). Each veneer is crafted by elite master ceramists based in Australia, using premium materials and the latest technology. These artisans are personally selected by Dr Leila Haywood, who has spent over 30 years cultivating trusted relationships with some of the most esteemed ceramists in the field.

Both veneers and crowns are crafted from high-quality porcelain and enhance the appearance and function of a tooth. Veneers are ultra-thin shells bonded to the front surface, ideal for aesthetic refinement when the underlying tooth is healthy. Crowns, by contrast, cover the entire tooth and are used when more structural support is needed—often after damage, decay, or root canal treatment. Your dentist will recommend the most appropriate option based on your tooth’s condition and your goals.

A Smile Makeover at Brisbane Smile Boutique is a personalised, multi treatment approach to transforming your Smile.
Our Experienced Cosmetic Dentists combine techniques such as Teeth Whitening, Porcelain Veneers, Crowns, Invisalign, Implants, and Tooth Bonding to suit your unique facial features and Smile goals.
AESTHETIC SMILE ELEMENTS
Tooth Length: Lengthening worn or short teeth with bonding or veneers adds youthfulness. A gum lift can help teeth appear longer.
Tooth Proportions: Balanced smiles follow a 4:5 width-to-length ratio of central incisors. This proportion guides symmetry.
Texture & Character: Veneers and crowns can be designed to reflect light like natural enamel, with customisation for a feminine or masculine smile feel.
Every makeover is planned collaboratively, and delivered by our experienced aesthetic dental team with meticulous attention to detail and patient preferences.
Veneer Aftercare and Longevity
Your new smile is an investment in confidence — and with the right care, your veneers can stay beautiful and functional for many years. At Brisbane Smile Boutique, we design and place veneers using the highest quality porcelain and adhesive materials to ensure both strength and aesthetic longevity.
How Long Do Veneers Last?
With proper care, both ultra-thin and traditional veneers can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years or more. Their lifespan depends on your oral hygiene routine, lifestyle habits, and regular dental maintenance.
Because ultra-thin veneers require minimal tooth preparation, they can often be replaced or refreshed more easily in the future if needed — giving you flexibility for long-term care.
Caring for Your Veneers
Looking after your veneers is simple and similar to caring for your natural teeth. We recommend:
Brushing twice a day with a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste
Flossing daily to keep the gumline healthy
Avoiding biting or chewing very hard objects such as ice, pens, or fingernails
Rinsing after consuming highly pigmented foods and drinks like coffee, tea, or red wine
Your veneers are highly stain-resistant, but maintaining good oral hygiene will keep them bright and fresh for years to come.
Protecting Your Smile
If you have a history of teeth grinding (bruxism) or clenching, we may recommend a custom night guard to protect your veneers and natural teeth from unnecessary wear. This simple, comfortable appliance can greatly extend the life of your smile.
Regular Professional Care
Scheduling routine dental visits — usually every six months — allows our team to check your veneers, clean gently around their edges, and ensure your gums remain healthy. During these visits, we can also polish your veneers to maintain their smooth, glossy appearance.
Lasting Beauty with Brisbane Smile Boutique
At Brisbane Smile Boutique, we take pride in creating veneers that not only look beautiful but also function naturally for years to come. Our precise techniques, premium materials, and ongoing care help ensure your smile remains as radiant as the day it was placed.
