Cosmetic dentistry
Proportion before product.
- Two to four visits
- Scan, photograph and written plan
Most cosmetic work fails for one of two reasons: it was designed on a screen rather than on a face, or it was decided by the dentist rather than by the patient. We deal with both by making the design a physical object you can wear home for a week before a single tooth is prepared.
What it gives you
- The result is designed against your lip line, midline and face, not a catalogue shade guide
- You approve a wearable mock-up before anything irreversible happens
- Minimal preparation wherever the enamel allows it
- Ceramics milled and glazed in the building, matched under the light you were photographed in
Photographic record
Twelve calibrated images at rest, speaking and smiling, plus a video of your smile in movement.
Proportion study
Width-to-height ratios, midline and incisal curve measured against your face rather than estimated.
Wearable mock-up
The design is printed and fitted over your own teeth. You live with it for a week and tell us what is wrong.
Preparation and fit
Only once the mock-up is approved. Ceramics are placed in a single appointment where the case allows.
The design is drawn before anything is prepared.
Intraoral scanning replaces impression trays; the design is milled in-house so the shade can be corrected in the same room and the same light in which it was planned.
- Will my teeth be filed down?
- Only as much as the material requires, and often not at all. Where the enamel allows it we bond additively, which is reversible in a way that a prepared tooth is not.
- How long does the result last?
- Bonded composite typically wants refreshing at seven to ten years. Ceramic veneers, cared for normally, commonly pass fifteen.
- Can I see it before I commit?
- That is the point of the mock-up. You wear the proposed result for a week before anything permanent is decided.
