Cosmetic Dentistry, Veneers and Smile Makeovers

If you are interested in improving the look of your smile, we invite you to come to Willow Dental Care.

Cosmetic Dentistry: Simple or Complex

Transforming your smile can involve a spectrum of treatment ranging from the simple, such as teeth whitening or composite bonding, to more complex care involving orthodontics, dental implants, crowns and veneers.

A consultation regarding cosmetic dentistry or smile makeover will involve taking photographs, digital x-rays and models.

Composite Veneers and Bonding

Discoloured, chipped and misaligned teeth can be improved with the placement of high-quality composite material. Your Norwest dentist can also often replace old and stained fillings for a great change. The composite is matched to your existing tooth colour to blend in seamlessly.

Bonding involves artistic skill and technique, yet is affordable and can be performed in one appointment. In addition, it is safe, non-invasive, and reversible because, in most cases, the underlying tooth does not need to be shaved down at all.

The dentist cleans the teeth and covers them with an adhesive. The dentist then builds up the composite and shapes it with precision and care to achieve the planned result. We then meticulously carry out polishing to finish the restoration to our exacting standards.

Composite veneers will need maintenance over time. They may chip or stain over the years, but are simple to repair in the mouth.

Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry in Norwest, NSW, goes beyond just improving the look of your teeth. It can also transform how you feel about yourself! Cosmetic treatments can fix chips, stains, gaps or uneven teeth. Here’s how cosmetic dentistry can make a difference.

Could Boost Self-Confidence

When you feel good about your smile, it shows. Cosmetic dentistry can help correct imperfections that make you feel self-conscious, allowing you to laugh, speak and smile freely—whether you’re on a date, giving a presentation or taking a photo.

May Enhance Overall Appearance

Even small cosmetic improvements may make a massive impact on your overall look. Treatments like teeth whitening, veneers or dental bonding can brighten your smile, balance facial features and give you a more refreshed appearance.

Improves Oral Health

Cosmetic dentistry often goes hand-in-hand with better function and hygiene. Straightening misaligned teeth or replacing missing ones looks great and makes brushing and flossing easier. This can reduce one's risk of decay and gum disease.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are porcelain veneers right for me?

Porcelain veneers are custom-made shells our dentist secures to the front surface of your tooth or teeth. Veneers can improve the shape, colour and overall appearance of one's smile.

Veneers are a popular choice for patients who want to correct issues like chipped, stained, gapped or uneven teeth with a long-lasting and natural-looking result.

What to Expect at Willow Dental Care

At Willow Dental Care, we use high-quality porcelain that mimics the light-reflecting properties of natural enamel so your veneers look and feel just like real teeth. Each set is carefully crafted to suit your face, smile line and personal preferences.

The process usually takes two appointments: the first to prepare the teeth and take impressions, and the second to place the veneers with precision.

Veneers are ideal for patients looking for a more permanent solution than whitening or bonding, and they can dramatically improve your overall appearance in just a few visits. Porcelain veneers can last 10–15 years or more with proper care, like brushing daily, flossing daily, a healthy diet and getting regular check-ups and cleans.

How do I take care of my crown?

The longevity of all restorations is varied based on the remaining tooth's structure and the ongoing home and professional care.

You care for your crown in the same way as we recommend caring for your teeth. If you don't already, make a habit of good brushing techniques twice and day and flossing once a day. It's also important to attend your routine cleans at your dentist's practice.

What Can I Eat with a Crown?

Your diet also has an impact. Your dentist in Baulkham Hills can discuss your dietary habits and their effects on teeth, fillings, crowns and inlays.

Another factor we might consider is if you habitually clench or grind your teeth. Again, there are many areas to consider, including your sleep and airway. If you have nighttime tooth grinding, sometimes an occlusal splint or night guard can be made to protect your teeth and restorations.

If that's the case, our dentist will advise you of that when you visit us for a consultation. If you do not protect your teeth from grinding, it's possible that the pressure could crack or break your dental crown.

Porcelain Veneers in Norwest, NSW

Porcelain veneers are beautiful, life-like thin porcelain shells that we can bond to the front of teeth. They can be appropriate for managing chipped, discoloured, worn or misaligned teeth.

Once the treatment planning and clinical records are taken, we will often create a wax-up of the desired smile. We use this wax-up to make your provisional (long-term temporary) restorations. Once placed, these serve to allow you to spend some time wearing the planned smile to ensure you, your friends, and your family are happy with the colour, shape, and length of your teeth. In addition, speech, function and bite can be trialled. We can then make adjustments as needed, which will help perfect the final restorations.

The teeth will need to be gently prepared to allow space for the porcelain. We always strive to be minimally invasive and to preserve as much of your natural tooth as possible. An impression is taken and sent to one of our chosen Australian dental labs. We will replace your provisionals for two weeks until the new veneers return. Once they do, they are tried in and assessed for your feedback. If we are both happy with the fit, contour and colour, we can bond them permanently.

Porcelain veneers require less maintenance as they are a stronger material and do not tend to stain over time.
