Why see a prosthodontist to improve the appearance of my smile?
Prosthodontics is a specialist field of dentistry that involves the use of fixed and removable dental restorations to restore dental appearance and function. Many dentists refer to themselves as ‘cosmetic dentists’ or ‘cosmetic specialists’. These dentists have a special interest in cosmetic dentistry but haven’t completed any specialisation. Unless of course – they are a qualified prosthodontist.

Question:
Are there non-surgical options for cosmetic dental improvements?
Answer:
Yes, there are several non-surgical options available for cosmetic dental improvements. These treatments can improve the appearance of your smile without the need for invasive procedures. Some popular non-surgical cosmetic dental options include:
- Teeth Whitening: This procedure uses bleaching agents to remove stains and discolouration from your teeth, providing a brighter and whiter smile.
- Dental Bonding: Tooth-coloured resin is applied to correct minor issues such as chips, cracks, and gaps in your teeth. It can also improve the shape and colour of teeth.
- Veneers: Thin, custom-made shells of porcelain or composite resin are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth to correct issues like discolouration, chips, or unevenness.
- Contouring and Reshaping: This involves subtle adjustments to the shape of your teeth to improve their appearance and alignment.
- Clear Aligners: These are a more discreet alternative to traditional braces for correcting mild to moderate orthodontic issues, such as misalignment and gaps.
These non-surgical treatments offer effective solutions for many cosmetic concerns, allowing you to attain a more aesthetically pleasing smile with minimal discomfort and downtime.
