Your smile is often the first thing people notice about you. If you’ve ever felt self-conscious about your teeth, cosmetic dentistry offers modern, safe, and effective solutions to give you the smile you’ve always wanted. From minor touch-ups to complete smile makeovers, there’s a treatment option for every need and budget.
What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and bite. While some treatments may also improve function, the primary goal is to enhance your smile’s aesthetics.
Common issues treated include:
Discoloured or stained teeth
Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth
Gaps between teeth
Uneven or short teeth
Misshapen teeth
Gummy smiles
Popular Cosmetic Dental Procedures
1. Teeth Whitening
Removes stains and lightens teeth several shades in one session. Available as in-chair treatments or custom take-home kits.
2. Dental Veneers
Thin porcelain or composite shells bonded to the front of your teeth. Perfect for masking stains, chips, gaps, or uneven shapes.
3. Composite Bonding
A quick, affordable way to fix chips, cracks, and gaps using tooth-coloured resin. Usually completed in one visit.
4. Smile Makeover
A customised treatment plan combining multiple cosmetic procedures (like whitening, veneers, and reshaping) for a full transformation.
5. Gum Contouring
Reshapes the gum line to reduce a gummy smile or even out gum levels for a more symmetrical look.
6. Invisalign (Clear Aligners)
Straightens teeth discreetly using removable aligners—ideal for adults wanting a straighter smile without braces.
