If you are thinking about having cosmetic dentistry, you may want results that can be seen quickly but still look entirely natural. That’s why it always pays to visit an experienced cosmetic dentist such as Dr Makhani at Garden View Dental Care in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire.

What is cosmetic dentistry?

Cosmetic dental treatments focus on the aesthetic appearance of your smile. Many people are embarrassed about their smile. From gappy teeth to dull or stained teeth, crooked or uneven teeth to unsightly metal fillings, there are many reasons people hide their smiles away.

At Garden View Dental Care in Buckinghamshire we believe that everyone deserves a smile to be proud of. Cosmetic dentistry comprises a range of treatments that can help anyone achieve the smile of their dreams.

How Dr Makhani and team can help

When you come in for a cosmetic dentistry consultation, we will establish what you are unhappy about regarding your teeth and gums, and will suggest the best options to improve your smile. Here are some of the fastest treatments we offer at our Buckinghamshire dental practice. . .

Teeth whitening

Teeth are easily stained by certain foods, drinks, medications and by smoking. Teeth whitening uses special whitening gel to gently remove these stains, restoring a natural bright appearance to your teeth.

We offer two options for teeth whitening: power whitening in a single appointment here at our Buckinghamshire practice, and home whitening, which takes about two weeks and involves using custom-made whitening trays and gels at home.

Veneers

Porcelain veneers are a popular treatment in cosmetic dentistry. They are thin pieces of porcelain placed over the front surface of your front teeth, to disguise permanent staining, small cracks, gaps and minor alignment issues.

Composite bonding

Composite bonding uses the same hard-wearing material that is used for white fillings to help reshape and rebuild teeth, for example to close small gaps and give your smile a more even appearance.

Cosmetic dentistry covers a wide range of treatments. One of the most common problems reported to our dentists at Garden View Dental Care in Buckinghamshire is gappy teeth. Some patients described gaps between their front teeth as suffering from black triangles. The clinical term for this condition is open gingival embrasures.

Here at Garden View Dental Care, cosmetic dentist Dr Makhani offers a range of treatment options for patients who are bothered by gappy teeth.

These are some of the ways cosmetic dentistry can help you wave goodbye to black triangles for good. . .

Composite bonding

Composite bonding is a common practice in cosmetic dentistry. It involves using the same strong composite material that is used to create white fillings to build up and reshape your teeth.

At Garden View in Buckinghamshire we use the ClarkMatrix system, which uses clear forms filled with composite material that is closely matched to the natural shade of your teeth to close up any gaps. This is shaped and polished to add extra shine, giving you a smile that you can be proud of. Treatment improves the integrity of the gum and the aesthetic appearance of your smile.

Porcelain veneers

Veneers are very thin pieces of porcelain that are placed over the front surface of the front teeth to disguise a wide range of aesthetic problems, including gappy teeth. They are firmly attached with strong dental adhesive.

Veneers are a popular choice in cosmetic dentistry and are a minimally invasive procedure, which requires very little preparatory work on your teeth. Your dentist will choose a shade of porcelain that closely matches the colour of your teeth for an entirely natural-looking result, where your teeth appear closer together.

Six Month Smiles

We are pleased to offer Six Month Smiles adult braces at our Buckinghamshire dental practice. These discreet braces move your teeth closer together in as little as six months.

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.
