Did you know that one in four of us in the UK are unhappy with our smile? With advances in modern dentistry, it’s no longer just a case of filling and taking out teeth. Cosmetic dentistry, or ‘aesthetic dentistry’, is used as a means of improving the appearance of teeth. Many people often turn to cosmetic dentistry in a similar way to how they might use cosmetic surgery, or even a new hairstyle. Used to straighten, reshape, lighten and repair teeth, cosmetic dentistry should always aim to produce natural-looking results for patients.
