Cosmetic Dentist – New Smiles

Cosmetic dentistry can remove faults or blemishes that have accumulated over the years or that you may have been born with. Chipped, discoloured, spaced or missing teeth can affect your smile and often lower your confidence and the way you feel about yourself.

At Hills Dental we offer a variety of modern treatments to improve the appearance of your teeth and smile. These treatments may range from whitening your teeth to a full mouth restoration using veneers and dental implants.

A smile makeover by a cosmetic dentist can often be a simple and inexpensive way to look fantastic for that special family photo shoot or school reunion.

If you feel your smile would benefit from a smile makeover or for more information on any these cosmetic procedures please contact us for an appointment.

• Metal free fillings
• Teeth whitening
• Porcelain Veneers
• Dental Implants

These are thin, tooth-coloured porcelain shells carefully crafted to bond to and cover the front of unsightly teeth. They are more conservative than a crown and can often be used as an alternative if the underlying tooth is strong and healthy.

Veneers are excellent for treating chipped, discoloured, slightly misaligned or misshapen teeth or gaps between teeth, especially if these defects affect the front teeth. A tooth that is too small or has irregularities can be successfully treated with a veneer.

Two or three visits are usually required to prepare the teeth and fit veneers. To prepare each tooth, a thin layer, about the thickness of a fingernail, is removed from the surface of the tooth. An impression is taken of your teeth and sent tot a dental ceramist, who makes up the veneers to fit your teeth.

Cementing of the new veneers occurs at the next appointment. Our cosmetic dentist will check on the colour and fit before finally bonding them into place.
