Cosmetic Dentistry in West Byfleet & Surrey

Cosmetic dentistry covers any dental treatment that improves the appearance of your teeth, gums, or smile. This includes teeth whitening, veneers, composite bonding, gum contouring, and full smile makeovers. Many cosmetic treatments also improve function and oral health alongside aesthetics.

Treatment time varies by procedure. Teeth whitening can take as little as one appointment. Composite bonding is usually completed in a single visit. Porcelain veneers typically require two to three appointments over a few weeks. A full smile makeover may span several months. Your dentist will give you a clear timeline at consultation.

Most cosmetic treatments are minimally invasive and performed under local anaesthetic where needed. Patients typically experience little to no discomfort. Treatments like teeth whitening may cause temporary sensitivity, which usually settles within a few days.

Costs depend entirely on the treatment and number of teeth involved. Teeth whitening starts from £295; veneers from £795 per tooth; composite bonding from £195 per tooth. We provide a detailed, itemised quote at your consultation so you know exactly what to expect.

Yes, professional teeth whitening carried out under the supervision of a qualified dentist is safe. We use clinically proven products and custom-fitted trays to ensure even, effective results. Over-the-counter products are not as strong and can produce uneven results or cause gum irritation.

Porcelain veneers can last 10-15 years or longer with good care. They are highly resistant to staining. Composite bonding typically lasts 5-7 years before minor repairs or replacement may be needed. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene will extend the life of any cosmetic work.

Veneers are thin porcelain shells made in a dental laboratory and bonded to your teeth — they are very durable and highly stain-resistant. Composite bonding uses tooth-coloured resin applied directly to your teeth in a single visit. Bonding is more affordable and conservative, though less durable and stain-resistant than veneers over time.

Yes. We use digital smile design and intraoral scanning to show you a preview of your expected results. For smile makeovers, we can also provide a wax-up model so you can physically see and feel the proposed changes before committing.

Most adults in good general and oral health are suitable for cosmetic treatment. We assess each patient individually at consultation. If you have active gum disease or untreated decay, we will address these foundation issues first so your cosmetic results are built on a healthy base.

Yes. We offer 0% finance options through a regulated partner to help spread the cost of treatment over manageable monthly payments. Ask about our finance plans at your consultation.

This is our primary concern. We match the colour, shape, and translucency of any restorative work precisely to your natural teeth or design your new smile to complement your facial features. Our dentists have a keen eye for aesthetics and prioritise results that look natural, not artificial.

Good oral hygiene — brushing twice daily and flossing — will protect your cosmetic work. Avoid biting very hard objects and reduce staining foods and drinks where possible. Attend regular check-ups and hygiene appointments so we can monitor the condition of your treatment. We provide specific aftercare instructions after each procedure.
