Porcelain Veneers in Wakefield
Create your dream smile with Dr Lewis Vernon Butler’s signature LVB Veneers
Transform your smile with LVB Veneers
When it comes to veneers, not all treatments or materials are created equal. Dr Lewis Vernon Butler’s approach focuses on minimal preparation feldspathic porcelain veneers, designed to create exceptionally natural looking results while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible.
The LVB Veneers approach is centred on respecting the natural tooth, preserving enamel wherever possible, and creating highly aesthetic results that mimic nature rather than replace it.
LVB Veneers are crafted with meticulous attention to detail, with careful consideration given to shape, proportion, surface texture and translucency. Feldspathic porcelain can be layered to recreate the subtle characteristics of natural enamel, including delicate translucent edges, helping the final result blend beautifully with the surrounding teeth.
Why Choose Feldspathic Porcelain Veneers?
Feldspathic porcelain veneers are a highly aesthetic option for improving the appearance of your smile. Their fine, layered construction allows subtle variations in colour, translucency and texture to be recreated, helping the veneers reflect light in a way that closely resembles natural tooth enamel.
LVB feldspathic porcelain veneers can be used to improve a wide range of aesthetic concerns, including chipped or broken teeth, gaps, staining, cracks, uneven tooth shapes and some cases of crooked or misaligned teeth.
Because the LVB approach prioritises minimal preparation wherever clinically appropriate, the aim is to preserve as much healthy natural tooth structure and enamel as possible while achieving the desired aesthetic result.
At Advance Dental Care, Dr Lewis Vernon Butler and our experienced team focus on creating veneers that complement the individual tooth, smile and face, with every detail carefully considered to achieve a refined, balanced and natural looking result.

Our Approach to Porcelain Veneers
Personalised Support, World-Class Care
We offer every patient an exceptional level of care from the moment they enquire. Each patient is assigned a dedicated Treatment Coordinator who will guide them through every step of their journey — from initial consultation to final results. Whether you’re local or travelling from abroad, your coordinator is there to make the process seamless, answering any questions, arranging appointments, and even assisting with travel logistics such as flights and hotel bookings if needed. We regularly welcome patients from across the UK and around the world, and we are committed to ensuring every detail is taken care of, so you can focus entirely on your smile transformation with complete confidence and peace of mind.
Designed Through Collaboration, Crafted to Perfection
LVB is built on a close collaboration between Dr. Lewis Vernon Butler and master ceramist Armin Durmić, a highly skilled dental technician based in Holland. Together, they plan cases in meticulous detail — from facial proportions and smile symmetry to tooth shape and shade. Armin regularly travels to the UK to work alongside Dr. Butler, ensuring total alignment from design to final fit. Using only the finest materials, including hand-layered feldspathic porcelain, this partnership blends clinical precision with aesthetic artistry to deliver results that are bespoke, refined, and beautifully natural.
What Are Minimal Prep Feldspathic Porcelain Veneers?
Minimal prep feldspathic porcelain veneers are ultra-thin, hand-layered veneers that enhance your smile with a natural, lifelike finish — without aggressive drilling. Often compared to a contact lens in thickness, they require little to no enamel removal and are ideal for those who want a refined result while preserving their natural teeth. We do not support the “Turkey teeth” approach. Instead, our veneers are crafted in partnership with our master ceramist, offering exceptional translucency, stain resistance, and a completely bespoke fit tailored to your face and smile.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What are porcelain veneers?
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made layers of ceramic that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. We use minimal preparation feldspathic porcelain veneers, which are handcrafted by a master ceramist to replicate the natural translucency, shape, and texture of real enamel. Unlike traditional veneers that often require aggressive tooth reduction, our approach is gentle and preserves as much of your natural tooth as possible. These veneers are ideal for correcting discolouration, worn edges, asymmetry, or old composite bonding, and they’re designed not only to look incredibly natural but also to be long-lasting and stain-resistant. Each smile is planned in detail between Dr. Lewis V Butler and ceramist Armin Durmić to ensure a bespoke, functional, and aesthetic result.
-
How long do porcelain veneers last?
With the right care, porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years or even longer. We use feldspathic porcelain, a premium material known for its strength, stain resistance, and long-term stability. Because our veneers are crafted using minimal preparation techniques and bonded with precision, they’re designed to function naturally and stand the test of time. Longevity also depends on good oral hygiene, regular dental check-ups, and avoiding habits like teeth grinding or biting hard objects. Many of our patients enjoy beautiful, long-lasting results for well over a decade without the need for replacement.
-
Is the application of porcelain veneers painful?
The process of getting porcelain veneers is generally painless. Local anaesthesia is typically not required unless there's a need for tooth preparation. Patients may experience some mild sensitivity during the process, but overall it's pretty pain-free!
-
How are porcelain veneers different from composite veneers?
Porcelain veneers are made from a durable and stain-resistant material, providing a more natural appearance and longer-lasting results compared to composite veneers, which are made of resin.
-
Are porcelain veneers suitable for everyone?
Porcelain veneers can be an excellent solution for many people looking to improve the appearance of their smile — especially for concerns like discolouration, worn or chipped teeth, small gaps, or old composite bonding. However, they’re not suitable for everyone. Ideal candidates have healthy teeth and gums, good oral hygiene, and are not severely misaligned or grinding their teeth excessively without protection. We carry out a comprehensive consultation and assessment to determine whether minimal prep feldspathic veneers are the right option for you. If veneers aren’t suitable, we’ll guide you toward other treatments that can help you achieve a beautiful, healthy smile.
