Common questions before you book

How much do composite veneers cost in Ireland?

Direct chairside composite veneers cost €250 to €450 per tooth, while digital injection-moulded or lab-made composite veneers cost €450 to €650 per tooth. For a 6-tooth upper smile makeover (canine to canine), clinics typically charge €1,400 to €2,400 for direct veneers or €2,500 to €3,600 for digital/indirect composite veneers.

What is the difference between composite veneers and composite bonding?

Composite edge bonding (€180 to €350 per tooth — see compositebonding.ie) only adds resin to the biting edge or corners of a tooth to fix a small chip or narrow gap while leaving 70%+ of your natural enamel visible. A composite veneer covers the entire front surface of the tooth from the gumline to the biting edge, allowing the dentist to change the shade, length and shape completely.

Do they shave down your natural teeth for composite veneers?

In almost all cases, no. Unlike traditional porcelain veneers — which usually require 0.3mm to 0.7mm of enamel to be drilled away — composite veneers are an additive treatment bonded directly onto lightly roughened, intact enamel. Because the underlying tooth is untouched, the procedure is reversible and rarely requires local anaesthetic injections.

How long do composite veneers last in Ireland?

Well-polished nano-hybrid composite veneers typically last 5 to 7 years (and up to 8–10 years with indirect lab-cured composite) before needing a full refresh. Having a quick 30-minute airflow polish and high-gloss buff every 12 months (€80 to €140) removes surface coffee or tea staining and keeps the enamel-like shine.

Can I claim 20% Form Med 2 tax relief on composite veneers?

Revenue's Form Med 2 rules exclude purely cosmetic composite bonding and composite veneers from the 20% non-routine dental tax relief unless the work is clinically required to restore teeth damaged by trauma, congenital enamel defects or severe erosion. By contrast, crowns, dental bridges and laboratory porcelain veneers listed on Form Med 2 do qualify for 20% relief.

Should I whiten my teeth before getting composite veneers?

Yes. Composite resin does not lighten when bleaching gel is applied later, and your lower teeth (plus your back premolars) remain uncovered when you get 4 or 6 upper veneers. Most dentists prescribe 2 weeks of boutique home teeth whitening (€250 to €450) first, wait 14 days for the shade to stabilise and bond strength to return to 100%, and then match the new veneers to your brighter natural teeth.
