What a smile makeover costs in Manchester.
Every figure below is simply £199 per tooth, multiplied out. No bundle games, no hidden lab fee, no price that changes once you're in the chair. And on every multi-tooth case, the live mock-up comes first: you see the finished shape and colour on your own teeth before anything is cured.
Canine to canine plus the first premolars, for smiles that show more teeth.
The whole upper smile line, edge to edge, shaped and matched as one.
Thinking upper and lower, or twelve teeth and beyond? It's quoted at your free consultation, always at the same per-tooth price, never a markup for the bigger case. And if you just have the one chip: that's £199, 35 minutes, done. Want the full UK cost picture before you book anywhere? Our honest composite bonding cost guide walks through what clinics charge and why.
What actually happens at the appointment
We shape composite onto your tooth, cure it, and polish it until you can't see the join.
That's the whole treatment. Thirty-five minutes for a single chip. No drilling, because we're adding material to your existing tooth, not removing any. No needle, because we're not going below the enamel. By dinner, you'll have forgotten which tooth it was. Here's everything that's in the £199.
The consultation
Free, with a written quote.
A registered dentist examines your tooth and bite in person. We tell you in writing whether bonding is the right call, whether veneers would actually serve you better, or whether to leave the tooth alone. £0 if you don't go ahead.
The shade match
Picked before any composite touches your tooth.
We hold a graded shade tab against your existing tooth in natural-spectrum light and pick the composite shade that disappears against your enamel. We use 3M Filtek and Tokuyama (the composites that reflect light the way enamel does). Same £199 whether we use the cheap stuff or the premium. We use the premium.
Multi-tooth cases
A live chairside mock-up, before we cure anything.
For a smile makeover across six to eight front teeth, we mock the result up live on your teeth before we cure anything. You see the colour and shape first. If it isn't right, we adjust before any of it sets. You approve the look while you're still in the chair.
The bonding
About 35 minutes for a single chip.
We etch the surface, layer the resin, cure it under blue light, then shape and layer again until it looks right. You sit, we work, and you walk out the same morning with finished work. No temporary phase. No coming back next week.
The polish
A multi-grit finish so the join disappears.
A same-day polish that gives the composite the light reflection of natural enamel. This is the bit that separates bonding-that-looks-bonded from bonding-that-disappears. Included in £199. No upcharge for a "premium finish" later.
After
A year of free chip top-ups.
If a corner chips within twelve months, we top it up free. After that, top-ups are usually under £80. Bonding is refinishable on the spot, which is the point. Unlike porcelain veneers, which fracture catastrophically and need full replacement.
Bonding or veneers?
Most people who walk in asking for veneers actually want bonding.
Walk into most cosmetic dental clinics and you'll be sold veneers. They're higher margin. They also grind down enamel that doesn't grow back, take two or three visits, and cost more than three times as much per tooth. Veneers earn their premium for major colour changes or heavily worn teeth. For most chips, small edges, gaps and minor reshaping, bonding does the same job. Here's how to tell which one you actually want.

The honest bit
Is bonding right for you?
Most people who ask us for veneers actually want bonding. But not everyone, so here's the honest line on who it suits.
A good fit if…
- You've chips, small gaps, worn edges, or a tooth that needs subtle reshaping
- You want it done in one visit, with no drilling and no needle
- You'd like to keep your natural enamel and stay reversible
- You want to spend hundreds, not thousands
Probably not, if…
- You want a dramatic whole-mouth colour change. Veneers hold colour better for that, and we'll quote them honestly
- Your teeth are heavily worn or broken down. A crown or veneer may last you longer
- You grind hard and won't wear a night guard. Bonding will keep chipping
If veneers genuinely suit you better, we'll say so, even though bonding is the cheaper treatment. We'd rather you trust us with the next thing too.
Two ways to pay. Same finished smile either way.

Sully at UrgentCare Dental was amazing. Explained everything in detail and made me feel at ease throughout my experience. All the staff at this surgery were so polite and caring. I am considering a health plan with them after today. Highly recommend.

Sulayman and team were excellent. Came in late on as I had broken my tooth on a chocolate bar — they were very helpful and were able to get me the correct treatment within the same hour! They even looked after my partner and daughter whilst I was receiving treatment. Super service, will definitely be back in the future!
★★★★★
My front tooth had been knocked out, and after many years of neglecting my teeth I was absolutely terrified about going to see a dentist. Everything was professionally and very sympathetically dealt with by all staff. I've never had such a good experience with a dentist. The problem with my front tooth was all sorted within an hour and I have an affordable plan to deal with other dental issues.
★★★★★
I had emergency tooth extraction with Dr. Zain on Sunday evening at 8pm, and I must say that was a World Class Service without stress and pain! It took less than 20 minutes and I walked out with no pain at all. Only £20 for consultation, very good discount for my extraction, plus a free full mouth check booked for next week. If you struggle with money, they offer an excellent payment plan. Highly recommend.
★★★★★
I booked an emergency appointment here as I had some concerns about my gums. I was extremely nervous as I hadn't been to the dentist in several years. The girls on reception were so welcoming and the dentist made me feel relaxed and listened to. We took many breaks during the deep clean which I highly appreciated. I'll be coming back for regular appointments now I know how calm and accommodating the team are.
★★★★★
I woke up in excruciating pain, needed tooth extraction. Sorted me out with no pain or anything. Gave professional advice, seen me within 10 minutes — bearing in mind this was 1am. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Me and my family will definitely be joining their family plan for ongoing treatments.
★★★★★
I came into this clinic really nervous about treatment but left feeling well looked after by Sara from the second I walked in. Dr Zain really took the time to explain my options clearly so I feel like I made the best informed decision for myself. Along with Ariba, they worked well together and were efficient with their care. Thanks guys!
★★★★★
I booked online at 9.30pm and made an appointment at 10pm, came in with pulsating toothache. Zain the dentist was exceptional — being a nervous dentist-goer, I had phase 1 root canal. The process was explained to me prior and during, and I was made to feel very comfortable. What a great service. I've been booked in for a follow up free of charge in a week.
★★★★★
My husband came in for a last minute appointment today and they fit him in without any issues. He had a tooth removed and was very nervous but was put at ease by the amazing dentist who talked him through every step. Ria on reception was exceptional — she assisted him setting up a payment plan with a welcoming smile. Very modern and clean. My husband is no longer in pain thanks to this amazing team.
★★★★★
Having a huge fear of the dentist, today couldn't have gone any better for an emergency appointment. Dr Abid put me at ease through the whole process. He considered my fear and had a great attitude towards me. Bonus that you can book the emergency appointment online and not wait in a phone queue.
★★★★★
Can not praise UrgentCare Dental enough. Christmas Eve 3.30pm, filling fell out, gum swollen. With it being Christmas my dentist was shut for 5 days. Phoned UrgentCare Dental and was seen within the hour. X-ray taken, informed my tooth had cracked and gum was infected. The tooth was removed and I was given another appointment for 2 weeks to check everything was ok. The staff were amazing — very welcoming and informative.
★★★★★
Best emergency dentist. The staff are all so lovely. Very efficient, small team working to help everyone. Had to get a root canal and they were absolutely brilliant and I'm fully out of pain. So happy. Absolutely lovely staff.
★★★★★
Dr Zain and all his dental support staff were fantastic. Got me an appointment within hours, left with my tooth fixed by midday. Highly recommended. Thanks again!
★★★★★
Went for an urgent dental appointment and it's amazing that they offer them late in the evening. All staff are lovely, caring and considerate. Options for treatment were given beforehand and they made me feel completely at ease.
★★★★★
Zain and Phillipina were amazing, very supportive as I am terrified of the dentists. They extracted two teeth very quickly and I am forever grateful! They are now my new dentists. Thank you again.

What people ask us
Will it last?
Five to seven years on average per tooth, longer with good hygiene and avoiding hard-object biting (ice, nails, pen lids). Bonding is refinishable. If a corner chips, we polish or top it up, usually under £80, and free in the first twelve months. That's its biggest advantage over porcelain veneers, which fracture catastrophically and need full replacement.
Can it be done same-day?
Yes. Single-tooth chip repair takes about 35 minutes from arrival to walking out. We can often book the consultation and treatment back-to-back if you tell us in advance and the case is straightforward. Multi-tooth makeovers may run across one or two appointments, but each session leaves with finished work. No temporary phase.
Will it match my other teeth?
We shade-match before applying any composite, holding a graded shade tab against your tooth in natural-spectrum light. Modern composites (3M Filtek, Tokuyama) reflect light the way enamel does. When polished correctly, the bond line is virtually invisible. For multi-tooth makeovers we mock the result up on your teeth before curing, so you can see and approve the colour live.
How is bonding different from veneers?
Bonding is composite resin layered onto your existing tooth. Additive. No drilling. No enamel removal. Veneers are thin shells of porcelain bonded onto a slightly prepared tooth, which requires a small amount of enamel removal that doesn't grow back. Veneers are £695+ per tooth, last 10 to 15 years, but if they fracture you replace the whole thing. Bonding is £199 per tooth, lasts 5 to 7 years, and is fixable on the spot if it chips.
What if my chip is bigger than expected?
For most chips, £199 still covers it. Composite resin is layered to whatever depth and shape the tooth needs. For very large fractures (more than half the tooth gone) or where the nerve is exposed, we may recommend a different treatment (a crown, or a root filling first). We tell you at the consultation, in writing, before any work starts.
Will it stain over time?
Slightly, yes. Composite picks up tea, coffee, and red-wine staining gradually over years. But it polishes back to its original shade at routine hygienist visits. Most patients can't tell their bonding has stained at all. It stains at about the same rate as natural enamel does.
Bonding or veneers, not sure which? Have a read first.
Most people who walk in thinking they need veneers don't. We wrote a short, honest 12-page guide that walks through which treatment is actually right for your tooth, when veneers really do earn their premium, and the 30-year cost maths. Get the free PDF. We'll email it across. No obligation to do anything after.
