Cosmetic dentistry in Morningside | Richmond Road Dental

Cosmetic dentistry includes any treatment that modifies the size, shape, colour, or position of teeth to make the smile more aesthetically pleasing.

Improving the aesthetics of your smile may be as simple as removing the noticeable stains on teeth or as extensive and complex as rebuilding every tooth!

Cosmetic dental treatments begin with a conversation with your dentist to ensure your needs and expectations are well understood. If you have any concerns regarding the appearance of your smile, our dentists will do a full mouth assessment and determine the best course of action.

A cosmetic dental treatment plan may include any of the following options:

Professional teeth cleaning.
Tooth whitening.
Replacing old, stained fillings with tooth-coloured fillings.
The placement of dental veneers.
The placement of dental crowns.
Replacing missing teeth.
Orthodontic tooth movement.

Depending on the complexity of your case, your dentist may take a multidisciplinary approach and consult local dental specialists.

Many cosmetic dental procedures involve permanent changes to the teeth. We believe that patients must be fully informed of the benefits of treatment and the consequences of permanently altering healthy tooth enamel before they begin their treatments.

Important to know

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to cosmetic dentistry. Our dentists must carefully plan each case, and the patient are helped to understand the risks and benefits of their treatment plan.
Successful cosmetic dental treatments depend on meticulous planning, the dentist’s clinical skills, high-quality dental materials, and the skills of dental technicians. Please ask our dentists to show you examples of the beautiful outcomes we have achieved for our patients.
