Cosmetic DentistryCosmetic dentistry in Sydney and all over the world has become increasingly popular, with many people wanting to improve the appearance of their smile for a number of reasons:
- Antibiotics used in some children (tetracycline staining)
- Broken down teeth or restorations due to age, dental health or trauma
- Dietary habits (tea, coffee & smoking) can cause staining and yellowing of teeth
- Inherited traits – Family history of misaligned teeth, gaps, missing teeth and blemishes.
Our surgery offers a variety of modern cosmetic dental procedures that can transform or enhance your smile and confidence. These include:
Crowns and Bridges
Crowns are ‘caps’ which are placed over the existing crown of a tooth to strengthen and improve its form and function. They are often required in cases where a tooth is heavily restored, susceptible to fracture, has undergone root canal therapy, or has an unattractive appearance. Dental Bridges can be used to replace a missing tooth by ‘bridging the gap’. To read more about crowns >
Veneers
Veneers are thin, custom made facings which are bonded onto the visible portion of teeth, and can be used to correct dental imperfections such as colour, shape and size.
Dental Implants
Dental implants can be an ideal solution to replace one or more missing teeth. An implant is made of two major components – a titanium screw (the implant) and the final restoration (implant crown or implant supported bridge or implant supported denture). Most people who have implants placed in their mouths feel that they are identical to natural teeth in feel, appearance and function. A dental implant requires no help from one’s existing teeth to function and enables patients to eat and speak efficiently as well as provide significant aesthetic benefits.

Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is one of the easiest ways to enhance a smile and improve your appearance, and is very successful for the majority of people. The two most popular methods of teeth whitening provided are ‘At home’ or ‘In office’ (ZoomTM). For more information, please visit our teeth whitening section or call us on 8456-6789 where we can discuss which is right for you.
Tooth Coloured Fillings
Modern, tooth coloured fillings allow the combination of strength and improvement of appearance. They are generally the restoration of choice wherever a filling is required, and are commonly used to improve the appearance of teeth which previously had unattractive metal fillings.
