Montana's Smile Journey

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.

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.
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.
Composite Bonding Removal and the Upgrade to Minimal Prep Feldspathic Veneers
Many patients come to us after having composite bonding that once looked good, but over time has become stained, chipped, dull, or bulky. When we remove the bonding, they’re often surprised by how healthy their natural teeth look underneath. While some smiles benefit from simple composite removal, others are beautifully enhanced with minimal preparation feldspathic porcelain veneers — known for their natural look, thinness, and longevity. Hand-layered by master ceramist Armin Durmić, these veneers reflect light like real enamel, resist stains and chips, and are tailored to your features for a refined, lasting result.

Can’t stop smiling! My treatment was completed today and I am thrilled with the results. I cannot speak highly enough of Dr Lewis and his team. They were all so professional and caring and each step of my treatment plan was explained in detail.

Dr Lewis explained in detail the X-ray results and made a clear plan for me to have a course of long hygienist cleans, etc. Overall, I felt in safe hands with a 3rd generation dentist (trained by his father) who had a considerate, knowledgeable, kind & calm approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore our answers to common inquiries about porcelain veneers and cosmetic dentistry to help you make informed decisions.

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made layers of ceramic that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. At LVB, 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, stain-resistant, and highly durable. Each smile is planned in detail between Dr. Lewis Butler and ceramist Armin Durmić to ensure a bespoke, functional, and aesthetic result.

With the right care, porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years or even longer. At LVB, 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.

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. At LVB, 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.
