When it comes to dentistry lots of functional dental treatments also have cosmetic benefits for the patient. For example, when a tooth is fixed with a crown or composite bonding the appearance of a patient’s smile may also be improved. For those seeking to improve the appearance of their smile, finding a dentist in Marylebone who can offer additional cosmetic dentistry treatments, may be important.

Here at Plowman & Partners, we understand that our patients can feel self-conscious about their smiles, so we are pleased to offer cosmetic dentistry treatments to patients who wish to improve the aesthetics of their smiles. Some of the treatments that may be helpful for those looking to change their smile aesthetic can be predominantly known for their functional benefits, such as replacing a missing tooth. We would be thrilled to discuss this with you further in person or over the phone, to find out how we can help you on your journey to a wider smile.

Cosmetic dentistry

The term cosmetic dentistry refers to any dental work carried out by our dentist in Marylebone that improves the appearance of teeth, gums, and overall smile. It often focuses on helping to improve your dental aesthetics by addressing areas such as position, size alignment and the shape of the tooth or teeth. Cosmetic dentistry may involve the addition of a dental material to teeth or gums, such as bonding, porcelain veneers, or tooth-coloured fillings.

Cosmetic dentistry treatments

Teeth whitening is a common cosmetic dental procedure involving the use of a whitening agent to remove stains and discolouration from the teeth; this can be done by our dentist in Marylebone at our clinic or with at-home whitening kits. Teeth whitening can improve the appearance of your smile by removing stains and discolouration. A brighter, whiter smile can help to improve your confidence and self-esteem. Teeth whitening can help to remove plaque and tartar buildup, which can improve overall oral health.

Veneers are shells created out of porcelain or composite resin that can then be placed over the front of your teeth by our dentist to improve their overall appearance. They can be used to correct a variety of dental problems, including chips, cracks, and discolouration. Veneers are known to be durable and can last for many years with proper care. They can also protect your teeth from further damage and improve overall oral health.

Tooth-coloured fillings, also known as composite fillings, are a type of dental filling that can closely match the colour of natural teeth. They are commonly made of a composite resin material which can be placed into your cavity by our dentist and hardened using a dental light. Tooth-coloured fillings can blend in with your natural teeth, helping to improve the appearance of your smile. They are long-lasting and can remain intact for many years with proper care. Tooth-coloured fillings can help to prevent further decay and improve overall oral health.
