What is cosmetic dentistry?
Dentistry is no longer just a case of filling cavities, repairing or extracting teeth. In today’s world, many people turn to dentistry for cosmetic reasons, or ‘aesthetic dentistry’, as a way to improve their appearance. They do this in the same way they might use cosmetic surgery or even a new hairstyle. The treatments can be used to straighten, lighten, reshape and repair teeth.
Cosmetic treatments include veneers, crowns, bridges, natural tooth-colored fillings, implants and tooth whitening.
