We remove the guesswork through advanced digital visualization. Whether you are choosing clear aligners or a full makeover, we use digital tools to show you your projected results before we even begin. For veneers, we offer a "Trial Smile" experience, allowing you to physically wear and test-drive your new look. This level of precision is why transformations at our practice can range from £795 for whitening up to £30,000 for comprehensive care. To keep this bespoke journey accessible, we offer 12 months interest-free credit for most treatments.

We believe that a luxury smile requires the world’s finest materials. For our porcelain transformations, we exclusively use IPS e.max® for its unrivaled strength and translucent beauty, while our composite work utilizes IPS Empress® Direct—a premium, non-hybrid material that offers a more natural, lifelike finish than standard composites. To ensure the most radiant results, we utilize Enlighten® Evolution whitening, the only system in the world to guarantee a VITA shade B1. If your journey involves straightening, we offer both Invisalign® and Spark™ premium aligners to ensure your foundations are perfectly aligned.

Yes. To ensure our bespoke care is as accessible as it is exceptional, we offer flexible financing and payment options. To help you achieve your dream smile without compromise, we offer 12 months interest-free credit for most treatments. This allows you to spread the cost of your investment into manageable monthly installments, making premium dentistry a comfortable part of your lifestyle.

Every smile we create at The Dental Barns is unique, meaning your investment is tailored to the complexity and goals of your case. During your initial discovery session in Lichfield, we provide a transparent, line-by-line breakdown of costs.

As a guide for your aspirations and budget:

• Whitening: Premium Enlighten® whitening starts at £795.
• Composite Bonding: Tailored packages, such as Enlighten® whitening combined with composite edge and buccal bonding, typically start around £2,860.
• Porcelain Veneers: Genuine IPS e.max® veneers start from £995 per tooth.
• Comprehensive Makeovers: A full transformation involving Invisalign®, whitening, and e.max® veneers can range to £13,945 and beyond.

Our patients find the true value lies in our "face-driven" approach, ensuring your new smile complements your natural features perfectly.

‍

Absolutely. We specialize in a "face-driven" aesthetic, meaning we design your teeth to complement your skin tone, lip line, and facial proportions. By using premium IPS e.max® and IPS Empress® Direct, we can mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural enamel, avoiding the "artificial" white look often associated with standard dentistry. Our goal is a smile that looks like yours, only perfected.

The timeline depends entirely on the techniques required to achieve your ideal result. For those seeking an immediate transformation, free-hand IPS Empress® composite bonding can often be completed in a single day, providing a stunning new look in just one visit. If your journey requires structural movement with Invisalign® or Spark™ aligners, the process typically takes around 12 months.

For a transformation involving IPS e.max® porcelain veneers, the process typically takes around 4 weeks from start to finish. This timeframe allows for the meticulous "Trial Smile" phase, where you will wear beautiful, high-end temporary veneers to test-drive your new look while our master ceramists hand-craft your final restorations. This ensures total predictability and a result you are completely in love with before the final fit.

Absolutely. We believe in total predictability. Whether you are opting for Invisalign®, Spark™ aligners, or porcelain work, we use digital tools to visualize your final result before any treatment starts. For those choosing IPS e.max® veneers, we provide a "Trial Smile" experience where you can actually wear a temporary version of your new smile to test-drive the look, feel, and speech.

Your transformation begins with a comprehensive discovery session at our Lichfield practice. We don't just look at your teeth; we use a "face-driven" approach to ensure your results harmonize with your unique features. Using advanced digital scanners, we capture a precise 3D model of your mouth, eliminating the need for traditional, uncomfortable putty impressions.

Your transformation is led by Dr Keely Thorne, our lead Smile Design dentist, who specialises in creating bespoke, natural-looking makeovers that sit in perfect harmony with the individual. We utilise a "face-driven" design philosophy, which means we don't just look at your teeth in isolation; instead, we analyse your facial symmetry, lip dynamics, and even your personality to ensure the length, shape, and "incisal edge" of your new teeth look entirely harmonious. By using premium IPS e.max® and IPS Empress®, Dr Thorne can choose from a vast palette of shades and translucencies to match your natural aesthetics perfectly, ensuring your results never look "artificial" but rather like a rejuvenated version of your natural self.

Yes, and we often recommend it as the first step. By using the Enlighten® Evolution system to reach a guaranteed B1 shade, we can then match your bonding or veneers to this new, brighter baseline. This ensures a cohesive, radiant result across your entire smile. Because we are a specialist destination, we take the time to ensure every detail of your appearance is perfected before you leave our tranquil Lichfield practice.

Both options offer a stunning transformation, but the finish differs slightly:

• Composite Bonding: Hand-sculpted using IPS Empress®, this provides a beautiful, natural luster that is ideal for correcting minor chips or spacing in a single visit.
• Porcelain Veneers: Using IPS e.max®, these offer a superior, glass-like translucency and are highly resistant to staining, making them the gold standard for a permanent, "red carpet" finish.

1. A Sanctuary Away from the High Street

While most practices are tucked away in busy town centres, The Dental Barns is set within the tranquil beauty of Blackbrook Farm. Surrounded by open fields and historic farm buildings, our practice offers a peaceful, rural sanctuary that immediately lowers your heart rate. Forget the clinical, sterile atmosphere of the city; here, you can prepare for your Smile Design journey in a calm environment that feels more like a retreat than a dentist’s office.

2. Total Privacy and Absolute Discretion

Luxury dentistry requires a level of focus and privacy that high-street clinics often struggle to provide. Our location is deliberately secluded, ensuring your visits remain entirely confidential. There is no "window shopping" or crowded waiting rooms; instead, you enjoy a private, bespoke experience from the moment you turn off the main road.

3. Stress-Free Arrival with Ample Free Parking

The biggest hurdle of a city-centre appointment is the arrival. We have eliminated that stress entirely with ample, private on-site parking just steps from our door. Whether you are driving the 11-12 minutes from Sutton Coldfield or Tamworth, your commute is direct and your parking is guaranteed. You can arrive with time to breathe, enjoy the view of the brook, and step into your appointment feeling refreshed and ready for your transformation.
