Cosmetic Dentistry is a term that can mean many different things, from a simple white filling, all the way through to total reconstruction of all the upper and lower teeth. The idea of a lovely smile is an appealing one, and more and more people are asking for some form of cosmetic dentistry.
At Oakwood Dental Surgery, our philosophy has always been to think long term and preserve as much tooth structure as possible. No restoration (a filling or crown etc) will last forever. Each time a restoration is replaced it will probably be larger. So it makes sense to make each restoration as non invasive as possible. Make each filling as small as possible, and avoid the overuse of crowns if possible. This tends to result in more affordable cosmetic dentistry.
Our focus is on minimally invasive cosmetic dentistry. Sometimes, adding a small amount of tooth coloured filling can disguise a mis shaped or wonkey tooth without having to drill the tooth at all. Sometimes a missing tooth can be replaced with very little destruction to the neighbouring tooth. Affordable cosmetic dentistry which is also less invasive.
There are lots of ways to improve a smile without the need to drill excessively.
In a few cases though, more involved dentistry is required. There are usually several different options available to you, and it is best to discuss these with your dentist. Some dentistry needs a specialist referral and if that is the option you choose, then we can work with that specialist to get the best end result.
