Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic, or ‘aesthetic dentistry', is used as a means of improving the appearance of your teeth and therefore your smile. Cosmetic dentistry treatments can include straightening, reshaping, lightening and repairing your teeth. With any of our cosmetic dentistry treatments our aim is to produce a better, but natural-looking smile for our patients.

Smile makeover

Typically consisting of a blend of different cosmetic dental treatment and other dental solutions, the goal of a Smile Makeover is to dramatically improve the appearance of your teeth.

Following a FREE Initial Consultation with our Treatment Coordinator and a subsequent Smile Assessment, we'll create a bespoke Treatment Plan that's tailored to your unique needs. This might involve some of the following treatment solutions:

• Teeth straightening (orthodontics)
• Cosmetic dental veneers
• Composite bonding & white fillings
• Teeth whitening
• Dental crowns & bridges
• Dental implants

Veneers

If your front teeth are stained, chipped, or malaligned, veneers will give you a good, life-like appearance with minimum tooth adjustment.

A veneer is a porcelain facing on the front of your teeth usually your top teeth, it is just like a false finger nail made out of porcelain and this treatment is mainly used for aesthetic reasons.

Veneers make teeth look natural and healthy, and because they are very thin and are held in place by a special strong bond (rather like super-glue) very little preparation of the tooth is needed. Porcelain veneers can improve the colour, shape and position of teeth.

A precise shade of porcelain can be chosen to give the right colour to improve a single discoloured or stained tooth or to lighten front teeth (usually the upper ones).

Veneers can also be used to close small gaps, when orthodontics (braces) are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.

Teeth whitening

The Enlighten Tooth Whitening system combines both at home and chairside bleaching to give you a natural looking Hollywood smile. With a guaranteed shade of Vita B1 (which is the whitest shade that our Vita shade guide goes), you can look forward to having an amazing smile. Enlighten is different to most other whitening systems as it can dramatically whiten even the darkest of teeth, and could leave you up to 15 shades lighter. Enlighten is a Deep Bleaching Treatment. It works by increasing the tooth's permeability to oxygen which breaks down stain molecules. It is a combination treatment meaning that there is a 2 week home treatment followed by a 40 minute visit at the dentist.

With long lasting, brilliant results, Enlighten Tooth Whitening is a great way to dramatically whiten your teeth, while keeping them looking natural.

Composite bonding

Composite bonding is the use of composite material that is then bonded to reshape, rebuild, or fill damaged teeth. It is a very simple cosmetic procedure, but it also has a huge amount of potential for different kinds of repairs.

The treatment itself is very simple, and it can normally be done in just one simple appointment with your dentist. It requires your dentist to first match the colour of the composite resin with the rest of your teeth. This will ensure that the smile will be consistent and look as natural as possible. The resin will then be placed onto the area required and moulded into the correct shape. The finishing touches will consist of curing the composite resin and refining the tooth further.

Dental bridges

A dental bridge is usually used where there are only a few teeth to replace, or when the missing teeth are only on one side of the mouth. Bridges are usually made of a precious metal base.

Replacing missing teeth will improve the appearance of your smile and if they are not replaced greater strain is put on the teeth at either side of the gap.

A gap can also mean your ‘bite’ is affected, because the teeth next to the space can lean into the gap and alter the way the upper and lower teeth bite together. This can then lead to food getting packed into the gap, which causes both decay and gum disease.

Metal free crowns

The all-ceramic e.max crown has many advantages over traditional crowns. Besides its high aesthetic qualities, the function and longevity of the crown is excellent as well.

E.max is a system of crown fabrication which allows a porcelain crown to be made without the metal under structure. Traditionally, porcelain crowns are made by bonding the porcelain to a metal support The drawback is that unlike a natural tooth which exhibits a certain degree of translucency, the metal framework under the porcelain blocks out the light. To the keen observer, the difference in shine and translucency between a natural tooth and can be quite obvious. While full porcelain crowns have been done (and are still being done), most have proven to break prematurely. Furthermore, porcelain surfaces are known to wear out opposing natural teeth faster.
