Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and smile. While general dentistry is primarily concerned with maintaining oral health and treating issues like tooth decay or gum disease, cosmetic treatments are designed to enhance the visual aspects of your smile. That includes services like teeth whitening, veneers, composite bonding, and smile makeovers. At our Tadworth clinic, we always make sure your teeth are healthy before starting any cosmetic work – so you can be confident your smile is both beautiful and well-cared for.

Most cosmetic dental procedures are either non-invasive or minimally invasive, and many involve little to no discomfort. Treatments like teeth whitening and composite bonding are completely pain-free. For more involved procedures such as veneers, we use local anaesthetic where necessary to ensure you’re completely comfortable. If you’re nervous about treatment, please let us know – we always take a gentle, understanding approach.

The longevity of cosmetic dental work depends on the treatment and how well it’s maintained. Composite bonding, for example, can last several years with good care, while porcelain veneers may last 10–15 years or more. Professional teeth whitening results typically last 1–2 years but can be topped up when needed. We’ll always give you tailored aftercare advice and offer ongoing support to help maintain your results for as long as possible.

Most people are suitable for cosmetic dental procedures, but we always begin with a full consultation and dental health check to be sure. Your teeth and gums need to be healthy before we begin any aesthetic treatment, so we may recommend a hygiene appointment or general care beforehand. During your cosmetic consultation in Tadworth, we’ll talk through your goals, assess your smile, and explain the options available based on your needs and oral health. Everything is tailored to you – there’s no one-size-fits-all approach.

Costs can vary depending on the treatment or combination of treatments you choose. Minor improvements like composite bonding are typically more affordable than full smile makeovers or veneers. We’ll always provide a detailed treatment plan and clear pricing after your consultation, so you know exactly what to expect. Many of our patients choose to spread the cost of their treatment over time – we’ll be happy to discuss payment options with you.

Yes – combining treatments is often the best way to achieve a natural, balanced result. For example, many of our smile makeover patients choose to pair bonding with whitening or gum reshaping. During your cosmetic consultation, we’ll create a personalised treatment plan that suits your goals, timeline, and budget. You’re always in control, and we’ll guide you through each step with care and transparency.
