cosmetic dentistry

Just saying cosmetic dentistry can bring to mind pictures of “Extreme Makeover” and “10 Years Younger” and thoughts of huge expense. Most people, if they had the chance, and the money, would like to change something about their smile.  When you are confident with your smile you automatically smile more and you become a more attractive person.

The best way of enhancing your smile is with porcelain be it in the form of veneers, crowns or bridges.  Porcelain is a fabulous material that has characteristics that are very similar to tooth enamel.  When there has been wear of the teeth then it can actually increase the strength of the tooth when it is bonded in place and of course it will never loose its colour.  Depending on the clinical situation veneers can be placed on all of your teeth or just a small number.

People's biggest complaint about their smiles is how dark they are.  This can be overcome very simply by tooth whitening.  This can be done on its own or in conjunction with other cosmetic work.

For an even easier way to improve the appearance of the teeth we can use enamel shaping or we can carry out bonding of tooth coloured composite material.  These are both capable of very subtle changes to improve the overall appearance of your smile.

Orthodontics (braces) is another viable option for altering the appearance of your smile.  Invisible braces are increasingly popular and are a great way to make small alterations to the shape of your smile.

Cosmetic dentistry involves applying an artistic eye to smile design.  It can change not only your appearance, but your outlook on life.
