Veneers in Kensington and Chelsea
18 dental practices in Kensington and Chelsea publish what they charge for veneers. Half of them ask between £525 and £1,200 for a tooth, and the middle price is £985 — 35% above the pooled median of £730 across the 10 boroughs where we hold veneers prices. The figures below are those practices' own published fees, read in August 2026, each one linked to the practice and its CQC registration. They are not quotes: what you pay depends on what the examination finds. Veneers are cosmetic in almost all cases, so the NHS does not cover them.
| Option | Cost (per tooth) | Notes |

| Private — lower | £600 | 25th percentile of 19 Kensington and Chelsea fee guides |
| Private — upper | £1,200 | 75th percentile |
| NHS | Not covered | Cosmetic / private-only |
Computed from 19 Kensington and Chelsea practices' own published fee guides, read August 2026. Method
- The Kensington and Chelsea median is £985 — 27% above the pooled median across the 10 boroughs with published veneers data on this site (£775, n=313).
- That makes Kensington and Chelsea the most expensive of those 10 boroughs for this treatment.
- The middle half of prices runs £525–£1,200 (a £675 range), a wide spread: the borough has distinct budget and premium tiers. The full range is £300–£1,500.
- 18 of the 80 CQC-registered practices in Kensington and Chelsea publish a price for this treatment (22%); the figures describe those 18, not the whole borough.
- All figures are per tooth, taken from each practice's own fee guide, so they can be compared like for like.
| Neighbouring borough | Median | vs Kensington and Chelsea | Middle half | Practices |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brent | £645 | £340 less | £450–£800 | 21 |
| Westminster | £970 | £16 less | £600–£1,199 | 66 |
| Wandsworth | £770 | £215 less | £450–£899 | 32 |
The lowest neighbouring median is Brent at £645 — £340 below Kensington and Chelsea, from 21 published prices. Both are published prices, not quotes; a practice sets its own fee whichever borough it sits in.
Why do some Kensington and Chelsea practices list under half the median?
5 of 18 published prices are below £492: 42 The Dental Practice (£300), Ghauri Dental Centre - Notting Hill Gate (£350), Knightsbridge Dentist (£350). A figure this far below the borough median is often a narrower product than the rest of the table (a single session, a top-up, or an introductory offer) — check what the practice's fee guide includes before comparing.
Why does the same practice name appear twice?
1 name recurs (Chelsea Dental Studio / Chelsea Dental Clinic). The CQC registers each location separately, and some practices hold two registrations at one address. Each row links to its own CQC registration and each row is counted in the figures above; if the pair is one practice, read it as a single price point.

A low figure is a real published fee, not a quote — complexity can change the price. Always confirm. How we verify
A veneer is a thin layer of porcelain or composite bonded to the front of a tooth to change its colour, shape or alignment. Porcelain lasts longer; composite is cheaper and reversible.
Porcelain veneers usually need a thin layer of enamel removed, so the tooth will always need a veneer or crown afterwards — they are irreversible. “No-prep” veneers exist but suit only some cases; composite veneers, by contrast, are often reversible.
Ask for the practice’s repair policy in writing: what happens if a veneer debonds or chips in the first year. Many London dentists offer composite as a lower-cost “trial smile” before committing to porcelain.
Porcelain veneers require removing a thin layer of enamel, so they are irreversible. Composite veneers add material to the tooth and can often be removed or repaired.
Porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 15 years; composite 4 to 8 years before they need replacing or refreshing.
Veneers are a cosmetic treatment and are not available on the NHS. Beware very low "package" prices advertised for full sets — quality of materials and clinician skill vary widely.
