Cosmetic dentistry versus NHS care
If you’re only accustomed to the treatments available with NHS care, you might be unaware of the full range of treatments on offer. While NHS care is excellent for covering the basics and ensuring that you can take care of your oral health, it doesn’t offer much in the way of cosmetic enhancements.
When you upgrade to private dental care, you will have access to preventative and restorative care alongside cosmetic treatment. Even some of the restorative care will be enhanced to ensure it is more aesthetically pleasing. For example, you’ll be able to opt for discreet white fillings instead of the dark amalgam fillings available on the NHS.
Getting to grips with the wide range of treatments available might feel overwhelming, but remember that your dentist is always here to help. You don’t have to know which treatments you want specifically, you can share your insecurities and troubles that you have with your smile and we can recommend treatments that are likely to achieve the best possible results.
Treatments to straighten your smile
With NHS care, orthodontic treatments are only available for children and teens under the age of 19. They are also limited to those patients with a clinical requirement for braces. This can mean that lots of patients with slight imperfections can miss out on treatment.
With private dental care, anyone at any age can access orthodontic care, even if they only have mild alignment problems. There are also more treatment options available, including fixed braces with tooth-coloured brackets and clear wires, or nearly invisible clear aligner systems.
Invisalign is fast becoming one of the most popular ways to straighten your teeth. This system uses a set of clear plastic aligners to apply gentle and even pressure to your teeth, moving them gradually into the correct alignment. The aligners are nearly invisible and removable, so there is minimal disruption to your life while you are completing the treatment plan.
If this system isn’t right for you, there are other discreet treatments available, including braces with tooth-coloured brackets and clear wires. You could also opt for lingual braces, which are fixed metal braces that are attached to the back of your teeth.
Cosmetic treatments in Warwick
Beyond teeth straightening, there are many different ways to enhance your smile with cosmetic treatments. It’s best to start with the things that make you feel insecure, and then choose treatments that will help to enhance these parts of your smile.
Treatments for dull or discoloured teeth
If you’re struggling with dental staining, you might consider a dental hygiene cleaning to help lift surface stains, or teeth whitening to tackle the more stubborn stains that are deeper in the tooth.
If your dental staining is resistant to teeth whitening, then composite bonding for single teeth or veneers for multiple teeth might offer a way to enhance the appearance of your smile.
Treatments for chipped, cracked and uneven teeth
When parts of your teeth have chipped away, or if the edges are worn and uneven due to enamel erosion, you might consider composite bonding to help conceal these edges. Larger areas of damage may be addressed with crowns or veneers.
Treatments for gummy and uneven smiles
With gummy smiles, a large amount of the gum is visible when you smile, and this can create a lack of balance with the proportions. To address this, gum contouring is a popular approach. Another way to balance the proportions of the smile would be to use veneers to create the appearance of slightly longer teeth.
Botox is another option, as this can be used to immobilise the muscles in the upper lip which stops your gums from being exposed when you smile.
Choosing the right treatments for you
It’s often not just a single treatment that helps you to achieve your perfect smile but a combination of treatments. These are often grouped together into a treatment known as a smile makeover.
This is a highly effective way to enhance the effects of individual treatments and ensure the results are long lasting. We find that investing in your smile with cosmetic treatments not only enhances the appearance of your smile but also improves your oral health.
When patients have invested both time and money into cosmetic treatments, they are much more likely to prioritise their oral health. There is an increased desire to keep the teeth healthy and clean. And with treatments like orthodontics, teeth are also much easier to care for, as the teeth are better aligned with no hidden areas for bacteria to accumulate.
