Cosmetic Bonding and Contouring

Hooray, Spring is on the way! I don't know about you but I do prefer leaving work in daylight.

You might be thinking about how to improve your smile leading up to the summer season, but you're concerned about the cost and time involved.

Here Dr. Emma Dougherty discusses a fast and  affordable way to achieve a beautiful smile.

"Cosmetic bonding and contouring is a great way to give you a beautiful, natural looking smile. It is much less destructive to your teeth than traditional porcelain veneers, provides an instant result and is very affordable.  As a result, the technique is growing in popularity, with Glamour Magazine dubbing it "The hot new way to get a celebrity smile".  The treatment requires no needles  and no drilling, we are simply adding small amounts of tooth-coloured filling material and reshaping your teeth to achieve a more youthful and symmetrical appearance.  This can be done in one visit to give you a perfect, same-day smile.  It can also be used in combination with cosmetic tooth straightening and whitening. "


Here are just two examples of the results that can be achieved with bonding and contouring.

This patient's same-day smile was achieved by using the bonding technique of adding tooth-coloured filling material to close spaces and improve tooth shape. The patient did not have any teeth straightening or whitening treatments and was delighted with the results.

Bonding was used in this case to improve the appearance of this patient's smile after some teeth straightening and whitening treatment, resulting in a beautiful natural smile.

Leave the Dentistry to Us!

A few days ago I was scrolling through Facebook, putting off all the other things I should have been doing, when an advert popped up from a 'legitimate company', offering a not-to-be missed opportunity to straighten your teeth in the comfort of your own home.  No pesky dentist, no messy impressions,  no fuss, simply order a one-size-fits-all appliance that would have your teeth straight within weeks. On further investigation the 'appliance' turned out to be a cheap sports guard type device.  This was to be worn at night, and within days your teeth would magically begin to straighten. A glutton for punishment, I went straight to the comments. One young man asked  "How much is this please? I've been quoted over £2000 to just have 6 teeth at the top and 6 teeth at the bottom straightened!" A lady thoroughly recommended the device. "I got these and could feel my teeth moving within 2 days, I swear!".  Another user a

Our guide to making dental treatment more affordable
