A good cosmetic dentist will tell you there is no such thing as a quick fix in the world of cosmetic dentistry. At 61 Dental in Stockport we believe in providing high-quality treatments that produce lasting results; however, there are some fast and effective ways your dentist can make over your smile in time for a special occasion.
When you come into our Stockport dental practice for an aesthetic consultation, your cosmetic dentist will take the time to find out what you want to achieve, and will – after a clinical examination – talk you through the pros and cons of all the relevant treatment options.
Here are some of the popular ways a Stockport cosmetic dentist can quickly make over your smile:
Teeth whitening
Teeth whitening is the most popular cosmetic dental treatment in the world, and is safe, reliable, and fast when provided by a cosmetic dentist. It involves the use of special bleaching gel to gently remove common stains – such as those caused by tea, coffee, or nicotine – from your teeth, leaving them several shades brighter and whiter.
At 61 Dental in Stockport you can either have a single power whitening session with a cosmetic dentist here in the clinic, or can carry out the treatment yourself at home over a two-week period.
Porcelain veneers
A cosmetic dentist can use these thin, hand-crafted shells of porcelain to improve the look of a single discoloured or chipped tooth, or can make a full set to create a smile makeover. Veneers are suitable for improving the appearance of a wide range of dental issues – including covering small gaps, dealing with minor alignment issues, and making teeth look more even – and with proper care can last ten years or more.
You will need a minimum of two appointments with your Stockport cosmetic dentist to have veneers fitted.
Replacing metal fillings
Metal amalgam fillings can add an unwanted grey or silver tinge to your smile. At our Stockport clinic a cosmetic dentist can safely remove these old fillings and replace them with tooth-coloured alternatives for an instant brightness boost. Usually, this requires just one appointment.
