Look in the mirror…and give yourself a big smile. Are you happy with the smile looking back at you? How much does it matter? Did you know that only half of the people you know are satisfied with their smile?
What does a smile say to people?
Mainly because it’s in a central, very noticeable position of one’s face. It’s also one of our key sources of non-verbal communication. A smile conveys a powerful range of emotion to others, from acceptance, to confidence, to greeting, to happiness. Many experts state that a smile, or lack of one, can make a significant difference in our professional and personal lives.
Do I need to do something about my smile?
An attractive smile helps us look and feel our best. When we look and feel our best, we enjoy everything around us. We enjoy life, a healthy one. That’s the best tip any healthcare expert can give you. Feel your best, most importantly, on the inside.
What can help?
Cosmetic dentistry, a boon in the modern age.
Aesthetic Dentistry is the most popular form of dentistry available today. More individuals, than ever before, are looking to their dentist to improve their smile quotient. Growing global awareness on embarrassing dental imperfections and ugly stains allow leading dentists around the world to render this immensely gratifying service.
Cosmetic Dentistry covers a broad range of dental services. It typically involves Appearance Related Dentistry.
There are many cosmetic options to choose from, depending on what you want to do. Cosmetic dentistry may involve:
-
- Straightening of teeth accompanied by improvement in appearance of face – Orthodontics
-
- The addition of a dental material to teeth or gums – examples: bonding, porcelain veneers (laminates), crowns (caps), and gum grafts
-
- The removal of tooth structure or gums – examples: enameloplasty and gingivectomy
-
- Neither adding nor removing dental materials, tooth structure, or gums – examples: teeth whitening (bleaching), gum depigmentation
What to expect?
It is important to be realistic. Dentists who specialise in cosmetic procedures are enhancers. They can manipulate, shape and polish materials in an infinite variety of ways to create smiles that are truly dazzling. What they can’t do is change the shape of your mouth, the colour of your teeth or your overall appearance. In order for tooth restorations to truly look natural, they have to work for you. Cosmetic dentistry can improve your appearance; it won’t completely transform it.
You must discuss the details of your case and understand what your dentist recommends for you. Rest assured, if you are seeing a dentist you trust, you will be able to foresee great results.

Our specialities at Maeoris Dental:
Bleaching
Bleaching is a common and popular chemical process used to whiten discoloured teeth. Some people get their teeth bleached to make stains disappear, while others just want a whiter shade.
Bonding
A tooth-coloured material used to fill in gaps or change the colour of teeth. It lasts several years. This is also used as a tooth-coloured filling for small cavities. Additionally, it can be used to close spaces between teeth or cover the entire outside surface of a tooth to change its colour and shape.
Crowns
Crowns, also known as caps, cover a tooth to restore it to its normal shape and appearance. Due to their cost, they are used in cases where other procedures will not be effective. Crowns have the longest life expectancy of all cosmetic restorations, but are the most time-consuming.
Veneers
Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain or plastic placed over the front teeth to change the colour or shape of your teeth. Veneers are used on teeth with uneven surfaces or teeth that are chipped, discoloured, oddly shaped, unevenly spaced or crooked.
Gum Contouring
This corrective procedure is the simplest and most dramatic cosmetic procedure in a cosmetic dentist’s armour. It is used to solve gum line problems that occur due to various reasons.
Modern Orthodontics
The advent of innovation in dental care technology has brought about the birth of modern orthodontics with the revolutionary Edgewise and Straight Wire techniques taking centre stage in cosmetic dentistry.
