Cosmetic dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry is not just about “whiter teeth”. A good result means teeth that are in harmony with your face, lips and gums and that look natural – at home, in photos and in conversation. That is why every cosmetic plan begins with a check of the health of your teeth and gums: aesthetics built on an unhealthy foundation do not last.

Whitening lightens the natural colour of your teeth by several shades. The result depends on the condition of the enamel and on how prone your teeth are to sensitivity. At-home whitening uses custom trays made from an impression of your teeth and certified products – always on the recommendation and under the supervision of a dentist. Crowns, veneers and fillings do not change colour with whitening, which is taken into account when planning.

Thin ceramic veneers are bonded to the front surface of the teeth to correct their shape, colour and minor irregularities in position. Usually only minimal reshaping of the tooth is needed, and in some cases none at all. Veneers are a good choice when your teeth are healthy but you would like a visible change to your smile. More on our Veneers page.

For more severely damaged or previously treated teeth, all-ceramic or zirconia crowns restore a natural appearance and protect the tooth. When feasible, we make up to 6 all-ceramic crowns in a single day.

We remove plaque, tartar and staining from coffee, tea and tobacco, paying particular attention to the spaces between the teeth. This is often enough for a visibly brighter smile. If you have no gum inflammation, it is recommended twice a year.
