Cosmetic If you are unhappy with the appearance of your smile, just ask your dentist what he could do to improve the appearance of your teeth. You may be pleasantly surprised to find out what is now available to correct crocked, worn, heavily filled or discoloured teeth. Over the last 5-10 years, lots of new ways of cosmetically improving smiles have been developed, many of which are simpler, quicker and less expensive than the traditional methods. One of the most popular forms of cosmetic dentistry amongst our patients in the practice is professional tooth whitening; at a cost of £325, that's less than the cost of one crown:- Teeth sometimes loose their outer enamel surface through acid erosion. The tooth appears more yellow because of the darker dentine layer becomes visible. This is easily treated by bonding composite (a natural shaded filling material) onto the tooth surface (without the need for local anaesthetic or drilling). These images show before and after views following composite bonding on three upper teeth. Porcelain veneers require less tooth reduction than crowns and are therefore a popular option to treat crowded, rotated and darkened teeth. 'Social 6' Braces enable us to quicly correct minor crowding/spacing of either the upper or lower front six teeth. Treatment time is normally between 12- 18 weeks.
