WHAT IS COSMETIC DENTISTRY?
Cosmetic dentistry involves a variety of procedures which either singularly or together, change the colour, shape, or alignment of your teeth. Referred to as elective treatment, cosmetic dentistry isn’t usually performed for reasons other than to improve your appearance. That said, aesthetic procedures like teeth whitening can also be combined with restorative treatments such as dental implants, orthodontics, and porcelain veneers in Croydon to achieve the perfect smile.
SO WHY DO PEOPLE UNDERGO COSMETIC DENTISTRY IN Croydon?
Over time, lifestyle choices, habits, and the natural ageing process wreak havoc on a smile. For this reason, many people are looking for ways to rejuvenate their looks and give themselves a confidence boost. Even simple procedures such as professional teeth whitening in Croydon can do exactly that. For us, it’s a great feeling when we see patients who have undergone treatments such as teeth bleaching or porcelain veneers, get a new lease of life. With this in mind, let’s take a closer look at some of the cosmetic dental procedures and how our Croydon dental clinic can help.
Here are some common concerns that cosmetic dentistry can address:
Discoloured Teeth
Years of coffee, tea, red wine, and smoking can stain teeth. Professional teeth whitening treatments can brighten your smile dramatically.
Chipped or Cracked Teeth
Minor chips or cracks can detract from your smile’s appearance. Cosmetic bonding or veneers can restore the tooth’s natural shape and colour.
Misaligned Teeth
Crooked or misaligned teeth can affect your bite and overall facial aesthetics. Clear aligners or traditional braces can straighten your teeth for a more confident smile.

Teeth whitening
Croydon, Strathfield, and Ashfield residents will be pleased to know that we have several in-office and take-home teeth whitening treatments using top brand names such as, Pola day, and Colgate. Each is designed to give you the smile you want in a controlled and convenient way.
So how do professional teeth whitening with us work?
When you visit our clinic on The Strand in Croydon, we’ll carefully assess your teeth. Provided they are healthy we’ll discuss the best whitening treatment for you. As the name suggests, in office teeth whitening is carried out chairside at our dental practice by our experienced team. During an hour-long session, teeth are whitened using a high strength whitening gel which is carefully applied directly onto the teeth. Once done, patients will notice a brighter whiter smile, although it may take several days to reach its full potential.
Alternatively, our Croydon dentist may suggest take-home teeth whitening kits. Patients are provided with custom whitening trays which they fill with a measured quantity of lower strength whitening gel. The trays are then worn over the patient’s teeth in the comfort of their own home. The gel can be applied for overnight use or to wear for a few hours a day, depending upon the brand, and can take around 14 days to see results, although many patients notice a difference within just a few days.
All our teeth whitening treatments are totally safe and can deliver great results, so come and talk to one of our dentists in today!

Croydon dental care – Porcelain Veneers
Sometimes teeth appear discoloured because the dentin or inner portion of the teeth has darkened and is showing through the tooth enamel. This type of staining, known as intrinsic staining, can be difficult or impossible to remove using in-office or at home teeth whitening in Croydon. Staining of this nature can be genetic, caused by certain medications, or as a result of ageing, and in these cases, our Croydon cosmetic dentist may suggest porcelain veneers.
As the name suggests, veneers are thin shell-like layers of porcelain which are placed permanently over the surface of the tooth, effectively hiding any discolouration or staining. They are colour-matched and shaped to blend in with your smile perfectly and can be fitted to one tooth, or several. Once attached, shaped, and polished, no one will ever know the difference.
