Cosmetic Dentistry in Meadowbank & Ryde, West Ryde
Regular dental appointments keep your teeth and mouth healthy, but what if you don’t like what you see in the mirror? Cosmetic dentistry improves the aesthetics of your smile, including colour, position and size.
Techniques and Skills Make a Difference
Our dentists are highly trained and skilled in a variety of cosmetic techniques, including
- Dental veneers—These are custom-made porcelain appliances (or sometimes composite resin). They change the colour, shape, size, or length of your teeth’s appearance once bonded in place. This procedure also features the least amount of tooth loss, and requires no special maintenance. Ready in about two weeks, veneers should last between 10-15 years with care.
- Teeth whitening—Years of coffee or tea drinking, smoking or, in some cases, medical issues, can cause discolouration of the enamel on your teeth. Cosmetic dentists are specially trained, and regulated by the government, in the use of the chemicals used in the whitening process. They can achieve, on average, results that are four shades or more lighter, giving you a brighter smile!
- Facial injectables—Facial pain and muscle spasms, TMJ, teeth grinding, and overuse of our facial muscles can cause wrinkles and skin to appear older. Our dentists are more knowledgeable regarding the maxillofacial areas, and trained to anaesthetise cranial nerves. There is no one more qualified to administer Botulinium ToximType A (BTx-A), aka Botox.
- Orthodontics—Regardless of the cause, crooked teeth can be hard to endure. Spacing issues can present difficulties in maintaining cleanliness; uneven teeth can make chewing uncomfortable, and they are just unattractive. Braces and clear aligners are two methods used to correct crooked teeth and restore your beautiful smile.
There are other techniques and procedures cosmetic dentistry can offer you. Our dentists will discuss your goals, the various methods to achieve them, and what a realistic outcome looks like for you. When you are ready to move forward with care, we’ll be with you every step of the way.
How Is It Different?
Restorative dentistry and cosmetic dentistry may seem the same, but there are subtle differences. While both areas may both utilise the same treatments, for example crowns and implants, the end result is not the same. Cosmetic dentists go beyond simple restoration in search of the perfect smile.
