Cosmetic dentistry is generally used to refer to any dental work that improves the aesthetics and appearance of a person’s teeth, gums and/or bite. Many dentists refer to themselves as “cosmetic dentists” regardless of their specific education, specialty, training, and experience in this field.
The American Dental Association does not recognize cosmetic dentistry as a specialty area of dentistry. However, there are still dentists that promote themselves as cosmetic dentists.
Treatments
Laminates & Veneers
Laminates & Veneers are basically shells of tooth-coloured materials that are bonded to the front surfaces usually to make them look beautiful.
Anterior Composites
In the aesthetic zone, composite bonding procedures are considered the most conservative and least invasive technique to return missing, diseased, and unsightly tooth structure to enhanced color, form, and function. Composites’ attractiveness and popularity are easy to explain because these restorations have excellent aesthetic potential, very good to excellent prognosis, and a reasonable fee. Composites are the most versatile restorative material available to the dental professional, especially for the aesthetic-conscious patients
Smile Designing & Improvement
Smile Design is a cosmetic technique where all of the upper front teeth are designed and created together to match your smile, paying special attention to your lips and facial profile. In this way we can create the tooth color, shape and alignment that are perfect for you, truly cosmetic dentistry.

Teeth Whitening
Whitening, or “tooth bleaching”, is the most common cosmetic dental procedure. While many whitening options are now available, including over the counter products, dentist-supervised treatments remain the recommended procedures for lightening discolored teeth.
