Cosmetic Dentistry
(Veneers, Bonding, Bleaching & Composite Fillings)
Combination of lifestyle and personal factors can result in teeth showing various faults or blemishes over the years. Your dentist can offer a variety of modern treatments to improve the appearance of your teeth and smile.
Changes in the appearance of teeth can be due to:
- inherited traits - some people have a family history of dental irregularities such as gaps, crooked teeth, spots or blemishes
- staining that can result from certain foods or beverages, especially tea, coffee and cola
- smoking, which causes discolouration of teeth
- the use of some antibiotics in children, which can lead to permanent colour changes in permanent teeth
- chips or cracks, which may be due to trauma such as sporting injuries or accidents
- broken-down restorations and age.
- Gummy Smile
Procedures:
- Veneers: These cover the front teeth and can significantly improve the appearance of your teeth and smile.
- Bonding: Bonding can correct blemishes and irregularities of the front teeth without removing tooth structure.
- Bleaching: This is a method used to whiten teeth.
- Tooth-coloured composite fillings: To close gaps, shape teeth and rejuvenate smile
- Inlays and Onlays: These repair larger cracks or cavities in the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, increasing their strength while maintaining their appearance.
- Surgery to create gummy smile
