Firstly, you will visit the practice for a consultation. Here we will get to know you really well! We will take photographs, impressions and x-rays of your mouth and teeth using our state-of-the-art Digital Smile Design imaging technology and software.

We will also take some video footage of your mouth when you talk, smile and laugh to get a detailed recording of the movement and symmetry in your face.

There will be a number of questions that we ask which will allow us to understand your concerns and wishes when it comes to your teeth and smile.

We assess all your data and design a smile based on everything that you told us. All cases are reviewed by a digital planning centre where a team of dental specialists ensure the clinical quality.

This means your case will not only result in your desired esthetic outcomes but will do so from within a healthy functioning mouth. With this information, we can create a mock-up of your new smile with the various treatment options.

You are then invited back to the practice to test drive your new smile. This means that you can see what your smile will look like and you’ll know what to expect at the end of treatment.

We will also fit a temporary mould on your teeth that will show you how your teeth will look at the end of treatment. You can make alterations to colour, length and tooth shape etc. before we get started with any treatment.

All the treatment options will be explained to you in detail, along with the costs and the expected timeframes for each.

Once you’re happy with your smile design and have agreed to the specific treatment, the treatment can begin.

For some patients this might be having dental braces fitted or implant surgery, so treatment times will vary from person to person.
