Once, cosmetic dentistry was the preserve of the rich and famous. Now more and more people are opting to have aesthetic dental treatment. At Garden View Dental Care, we provide a wide range of cosmetic treatments to patients from all across Buckinghamshire. Here we look at some common treatments and the positive effects they can have on your life.

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on the aesthetic appearance of your smile. Many people are unhappy with their smile, hiding it away behind their hands in public. Dentists have developed several ways to improve the appearance of your smile, and with it boost your self-confidence.

The problem: Stained teeth

Our teeth are stained by food and drink, as well as by smoking and as part of the ageing process. Teeth whitening is a common cosmetic dental procedure that, when carried out by your dentist, is a safe and effective way to remove stains and put some sparkle back in your smile.

For teeth with permanent stains or discolouration, your dentist may recommend porcelain veneers, which are thin pieces of porcelain attached to the front of the teeth with strong dental adhesive. As well as stains, they can cover small chips, gaps and alignment problems.

The problem: Crooked teeth

If you missed out on orthodontic treatment as a child, or if your teeth have shifted position, you may benefit from adult orthodontics. At Garden View Dental Care, Buckinghamshire, we use Six Month Smiles. These discreet braces are increasingly popular in cosmetic dentistry and correct alignment problems with the front teeth – those on show when you smile.

The problem: Metal fillings

Metal fillings are strong and durable, but very obvious. At our Buckinghamshire dental practice we can replace metal fillings with white fillings for a metal-free smile.

These are just some of the cosmetic dentistry procedures we offer. Contact our Buckinghamshire centre for a full list of how we can help you.
