What Do Cosmetic Dentist Do?

The primary role of a cosmetic dentist is to understand your dental concerns and to provide a range of treatments and options to help.The best cosmetic dentists in the UK will then use a combination of treatments to achieve your desired result. The 3 primary areas a cosmetic dentist will look at are:

• Whitening your smile. Teeth whitening is often the 1st treatment considered however, it’s not always appropriate, particularly if you have existing crowns or veneers. Whiter dental veneers can often be used to cover dark teeth and also make the teeth appear straighter whilst changing their shape at the same time.
• Straightening your teeth. Orthodontics is generally considered the gold standard for straightening crooked teeth, however if there is a single tooth which need straightening sometimes an immediate veneer can achieve the same result by making that to look straighter.
• Repairing broken down teeth. A variety of techniques from bonding to veneers through to CEREC immediate veneers can be used to repair broken down teeth.
