ABOUT COSMETIC DENTISTRY FOR CHILDREN

Most cosmetic aspects of children’s dentistry are based on providing tooth-coloured material to replace discoloured teeth, fractured crowns and fillings and make the teeth as natural-looking as possible.

Cosmetic dentistry - how we can help

We are able to use composite putty-like resin and mould it to fit most discoloured or fractured front teeth appropriately. Unlike silver fillings, composite or white fillings not only give you a very natural look, they are minimally invasive with less drilling and do not require the removal of healthy tooth tissue. The composite material is also able to restore the strength of the teeth and create a great natural smile.

Crowns for baby teeth come generally pre-formed from stainless steel crowns, which are adjusted to fit teeth perfectly. Children’s crowns however, could be made from tooth-coloured bespoke ceramic materials. Your dentist will be able to advise you on the benefits of both options.
