We start with the least invasive option

Plenty of people who come in asking about veneers end up needing something simpler. Over-treatment is a real problem in cosmetic dentistry, where healthy tooth is drilled away or an expensive option is chosen when a cheaper one would have done the job.

So the first thing we ask is what the least invasive way to get your result is. For some people that's whitening and edge bonding, for others it's aligners first and bonding after, and occasionally it's veneers. We'll show you the options and the trade-offs, and you decide.

Cosmetic dentistry FAQs

Do you offer a free cosmetic consultation?

Yes. The consult is free and includes a digital smile preview and a written quote.

How do I know which treatment is right for me?

We always recommend the least invasive option that achieves your goal. We show you a digital preview and explain all options before you commit to anything.

Can I combine multiple cosmetic treatments?

Yes. A common order is aligners first, then whitening, then bonding, so each step builds on the one before.

Is cosmetic dentistry covered by health funds?

Generally not for purely cosmetic work. Some restorative procedures may attract a rebate. We check your entitlements and advise clearly at consultation.

How long does cosmetic treatment take from start to finish?

It depends on the treatment. Bonding is usually done in one visit. Veneers take two visits over two to three weeks, whitening takes a couple of weeks with the take-home trays, and aligners take 6 to 18 months. We'll give you a timeline at your consult.
