Different approaches to
Cosmetic Dentistry
The approach to cosmetic dentistry can vary significantly depending on why you are looking to have treatment performed, as well as your desired result.
Lifestyle Changes
Making adjustments to lifestyle habits, such as reducing consumption of stain-causing foods and beverages, quitting smoking, and maintaining good oral hygiene practices, can help prevent further yellowing and maintain the results of teeth whitening treatments.
Teeth Whitening
When your smile looks great apart from stains and discolouration, all you may need to improve things is a dental cleaning and optional teeth whitening. The teeth whitening process removes internal and external stains from your teeth in a safe and gentle manner with results that last for several months before requiring a simple top-up procedure in the comfort of your own home.
Orthodontics
Orthodontics is a perfect solution for improving the cosmetics of teeth where your teeth are a good shape and size, but are just in the wrong position. While orthodontic treatment takes a bit more time than having veneers placed, this reduces the need for irreversible damage to teeth, as well as provides longer lasting results.
Crowns and bridges
Crowns and bridges are an excellent choice for improving cosmetics for teeth which are heavily broken down and require significant rebuilding or reinforcement. They allow you to improve the appearance of your teeth by replacing the visible parts of your teeth, but also help strengthen weakened teeth by reinforcing or capping them with strengthened ceramics.
Porcelain veneers
Porcelain veneers are buildups created for your teeth by our artisan ceramists in the Melbourne CBD. This is the strongest, longer lasting and best looking option for altering colour and shape of teeth while minimising the amount of damage to your existing teeth. Unlike composite veneers, these take several appointments for fitting and placement to ensure they fit well and look perfect.
Composite veneer
Composite veneers are direct buildups on your natural tooth structure which can be performed affordably in a single appointment. These minimise damage to your existing teeth as your dentist will ideally be able to place these without adjusting your teeth. These work well where teeth are worn or misshaped, or if you have minor existing dental treatment which requires replacement.
