A Smile Makeover can transform your smile in as l ittle as three weeks and be the per fect solution

for crooked, uneven, worn down, chipped and discoloured teeth.

Beginning with a comprehensive smile assessment, we discuss with you how best to achieve the

most beautiful, natural looking smile. Every patient is unique so we design your smile specifically

to suit you and your particular features - assessing factors such as face shape, tooth colour and

tooth size.

A variety of highly effective techniques are then used to create your new smile. Many of our

patients experience a dramatic increase in their self esteem because, often for the first time, they

can smile openly with a new level of confidence.
