An overview of our cosmetic dental services
Cosmetic dentistry goes beyond fillings and includes Tooth Coloured Restorations, Teeth Whitening, Veneers and Dental Implants. Each service we provide is designed to improve your smile and make you feel confident again.
Tooth Coloured Restorations
Suitable for those who want an even, white smile. Colour-matching techniques are used, and our products will fit and bond seamlessly to your existing teeth.
Patients choose white fillings to –
- Create an even smile</
- Mask little imperfections</
- Change the shape of teeth</
- Complete the length and shape of a tooth that has broken</
Teeth Whitening
A non-evasive three-step procedure is used to create a healthy and stunning smile. This treatment lightens the natural colour of your teeth by several shades. Results achieved will depend on your natural tooth colour and your lifestyle. The Ultra-dent whitening process will lighten the existing shade of your teeth to create a brighter smile, but it CANNOT make your teeth a different shade of white.
Lifestyle factors that can affect tooth colouring include
- Red wine</
- Smoking</
- Tea and coffee</
- The natural ageing processes</
Your dentist will be able to discuss the process with you and the results you can expect to see. Crowns and fillings cannot be lightened, and the process does not damage crowns, fillings or tooth enamel in any way, some patients may experience some tooth sensitivity for up to two days following treatment.
Dental Implants
If you want a long-term and natural looking solution for missing teeth – dental implants are the perfect choice. Dental implants offer durability and convenience as opposed to dentures that can be easy to break or loose and can be uncomfortable to wear.

Dental implants have become a popular choice for patients wanting to complete their smile, without the use of dentures. A dental implant is a new *tooth* that is inserted into the gap where your natural tooth once was.
The process is completed in two parts
- An artificial root made of titanium is inserted into the jaw and left there to fuse the new root to the bone, this takes 3-4 months</
- Then a sculptured tooth is then fitted onto the implanted titanium root</
Veneers
Perfect for those wanting to quickly improve the look of their smile. A veneer is a thin custom-made crown like shell that is made from composite resin or porcelain that is fitted over an existing tooth.
Veneers are perfect for people with teeth that are
- Worn</
- Discoloured</
- Stained
- Uneven
- Gapped
- Out of proportion with the gums
Veneers are permanent, and they are custom made to suit the patient. Treatment starts with a thin layer of tooth being removed, the veneer is then fitted to the gum line and surrounding teeth before being bonded into place. The result is a natural and beautiful smile.
