Dental Veneers &
Smile Makeover
in Singapore
Porcelain, composite and Korean-style (K-Dental) veneers at our Tanjong Pagar and Marine Parade clinics — designed for a natural, refined finish rather than an overly uniform smile.
What Are Dental Veneers?
Veneers are typically made from porcelain or composite resin. They are bonded to the surface of the teeth, allowing patients to improve the appearance of their teeth while maintaining the natural structure.
Veneers can address several cosmetic concerns:
- Minor chips or cracks in the teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Mildly misaligned or uneven front teeth
- Discoloured teeth that do not respond to whitening
- Patients seeking a natural yet refined smile makeover
K-Dental Veneers
Meiplus Dentalcare also offers Korean Dental veneers and Korean Aesthetic crowns — treatments designed around the natural, refined aesthetic commonly associated with Korean cosmetic dentistry.
- Subtle shape correction
- Bright but natural-looking finish
- Designed around your own facial features
- An overly uniform “veneer smile”
- One-size-fits-all shade and shape
- Teeth that look obviously treated
What Is a Smile Makeover?
A smile makeover is not a single procedure — it’s a customised plan that combines two or more cosmetic treatments to address multiple concerns at once.
Your dentist designs the plan around your facial features, goals, and budget — sequencing treatments so the final result looks cohesive rather than like a set of separate, unrelated procedures.

The Veneer Procedure
From your first consultation to final follow-up, here’s what to expect at each stage of veneer treatment.
Consult & Assessment
Our dentists will evaluate your teeth and discuss your expected results & options. X-rays may be taken to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy enough for veneers.
Preparation
A small amount of enamel is gently removed from the tooth surface to create space for the veneer. Impressions are then taken to custom-make the veneers.
Bonding the Veneers
Once the veneers are ready, they are carefully placed on the teeth using a special adhesive. Adjustments may be made to ensure a perfect fit and natural appearance.
Follow-up
After placement, follow-up visits may be recommended to monitor the veneers and ensure they are functioning well.

FAQs on Dental Veneers
& Smile Makeover
What are dental veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells — made from porcelain or composite resin — bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance while keeping the natural tooth structure underneath. They’re commonly used to address chips, gaps, discolouration, and uneven or misaligned front teeth.
What is the difference between porcelain and composite veneers?
Composite veneers are built up directly on the tooth using tooth-coloured resin, usually in fewer visits and at a lower cost, but typically last 5 to 7 years. Porcelain veneers are custom fabricated in a lab and bonded on, offering a longer-lasting (10 to 15 years), more stain-resistant finish, usually at a higher cost.
What are Korean-style (K-Dental) veneers?
K-Dental veneers and K-Aesthetic crowns are treatments offered at Meiplus Dentalcare designed around the natural, refined aesthetic associated with Korean cosmetic dentistry — emphasising subtle shape correction and a bright but natural-looking finish. As a Korean-founded clinic with Korean-trained dentists, this is one of our specialties.
What is a smile makeover?
A smile makeover is a customised treatment plan that combines two or more cosmetic dental treatments — such as veneers, teeth whitening, and Invisalign — to address multiple concerns together, designed around your facial features and goals rather than as separate, unrelated procedures.
How much do dental veneers cost in Singapore?
At Meiplus Dentalcare, dental veneers start from $1,400 and range up to $1,600 per tooth, depending on the materials used, the complexity of your individual case, and the time taken to complete treatment. Prices are subject to prevailing GST, and this price list is not exhaustive — your final quote will only be given after consultation with our dentists.
Are dental veneers painful?
Most patients experience little to no pain. Preparing the tooth involves removing a small amount of enamel, which may be done under local anaesthesia if needed. Mild sensitivity for a few days afterward is normal and typically resolves on its own.
How long do dental veneers last?
Composite veneers typically last 5 to 7 years, while porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years or longer with good oral hygiene, regular dental check-ups, and avoiding habits like biting hard objects or teeth grinding.
Are dental veneers covered by CHAS or MediSave in Singapore?
No. Veneers are considered an elective cosmetic treatment and are generally not covered by MediSave or CHAS subsidies. Your dentist can advise if any part of your treatment plan overlaps with a claimable restorative procedure.
What is the difference between veneers and dental crowns?
Veneers only cover the front surface of a tooth and are used mainly for cosmetic improvements. Crowns cover the entire tooth and are typically used when a tooth is more significantly damaged or weakened, providing more structural support in addition to improving appearance.
How many visits does it take to get veneers?
Composite veneers can often be completed in 1 to 2 visits, since they’re built up directly on the tooth. Porcelain veneers usually take 2 to 3 visits — consultation and preparation, then fitting the custom-made veneers once they’re ready from the lab.
Where can I get dental veneers in Tanjong Pagar or Marine Parade?
