Cosmetic Dentistry in Christchurch
A smile you feel confident in can change how you carry yourself. Cosmetic dentistry focuses on enhancing the appearance of your teeth, gums, and bite, while restorative dentistry repairs and rebuilds where needed, and our team blends both to help you achieve a result you are genuinely proud of, one that still looks like you.
Veneers. Direct or indirect veneers can improve the shape, size, and colour of your teeth, offering a long-lasting way to transform your smile.
Crowns & Bridges. Crowns are tooth-shaped caps placed over an existing tooth to restore its size, shape, and strength, while bridges help replace missing teeth and restore your bite. Both can be made from a range of materials, including porcelain, for a natural finish.
We use a state of the art Primescan machine to take digital impressions of your teeth. This allows us to have precise and mess free crown appointments.
Smile Makeovers. For patients wanting a more complete transformation, we take the time to plan a personalised approach, combining treatments where needed to achieve a result you will be genuinely proud of.
Our Approach to Cosmetic Work. We believe cosmetic dentistry should always be a considered decision, not an impulse one. Every consultation starts with a conversation about what you want to achieve and what will genuinely suit you, before any treatment is recommended.
Closing the gap (diastema) with composite veneers
One of our patients spent years feeling self-conscious about the gaps between her teeth and rarely smiling because of them.
Many patients do not know that gaps like these can be closed in one of two ways: with composite bonding, a direct, more affordable option, or with porcelain veneers, an indirect option that costs a bit more. In her case, we chose composite bonding, sculpting the material directly onto her teeth to close the gaps naturally and affordably. We did this within one appointment.
The result gave her a smile she was finally proud to share, and it is a reminder that a simple, honest conversation about your options can make all the difference.
