Teeth Whitening
There are several over-the-counter teeth whitening products available, but not all are as effective as the professional teeth whitening offered by our experienced cosmetic dentist. Our cosmetic dentists near Ashburton use modern whitening techniques that involve covering the gums with a rubber dam and coating the teeth with a bleaching chemical.

Veneers
Dental veneers are tooth-coloured shells designed to be a permanent solution for chipped or stained teeth. These veneers are customized for every patient and bonded to the front surface of the teeth. Usually, these are preferred for enhancing the appearance of the front teeth that are easily visible.

Crowns
Our cosmetic dentists recommend dental crowns to keep cracked teeth together and prevent them from breaking further. These are used to replace a decayed tooth, with the crown fitting over the tooth like a cap. Porcelain, metal, or ceramic are the most common materials used to make dental crowns.

Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is used to repair cracks and chips in your teeth, and is also an excellent alternative to fillings. During this treatment we make use of resin (that matches the colour of the tooth being treated) which is then applied to the chipped or cracked tooth, which is hardened, sheared and polished.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs

This entirely depends on the type of concern you are experiencing. A crown may be appropriate for more severely damaged tooth with excessive cracking or wear since it helps protect the leftover tooth and gum.

However, if you only want to improve the appearance of a healthy tooth, a veneer is usually a better and less invasive option.
