Let us help you be more comfortable and confident in your smile!
At Dentists in Annerley we want you to be happy and comfortable with your smile. We have highly trained cosmetic dentists that will take the time to really listen to what it is you want to achieve. By utilising Intra-oral scanners, 3D software, digital smile designs, mock ups and provisionals, we can provide you with a realistic visualisation of what your final result will look like, before having to commit to your proposed treatment.
There are several cosmetic treatments available including:
Veneers are often used to treat teeth that have been worn, chipped, cracked, discoloured or oddly shaped. One of the amazing things about veneers is that they can address a number of issues and concerns that you may have with a single treatment. Our dentists tailor the veneers to your facial features and characterise the teeth to best suit your personality. We believe in a minimally invasive approach and will always work with you to obtain your desired outcome.
There are many types of veneer designs and different types of materials that can be used. During our consultation and treatment planning phase, this will all be discussed with you. We use highly reputable ceramics and composite materials in order to provide you with the highest quality results.
Porcelain veneers are custom made from a ceramic block. We spend a lot of time perfecting the characteristics, shade and shape of the veneers to provide a natural and harmonious outcome to suit the rest of your smile. We use local Australian cosmetic laboratories and premium ceramic to ensure only top quality materials are used.
Steps for porcelain veneers
Step 1: Initial consultation where we assess your desires and your overall goals. We take digital photographs and radiographs as well as impressions to plan your case. We then get a digital copy of your potential smile and we can even trial it in the mouth so you can have an idea of what the final outcome will look like.
Step 2: When you decide to go ahead with the veneers, your teeth will be prepared which may or may not require enamel removal. The removal of enamel is very minimal as we aim to always try to conserve your natural teeth. Your teeth will then have temporary veneers placed while your permanent veneers are being tailor made.
Step 3: The temporary veneers are removed, and a trial fit of the porcelain veneers is done. Once we are all happy, the veneers are bonded with the latest adhesive systems.
Step 4: Be happy and smile with your lovely new veneers!
Composite veneers are made using composite, the material often referred to as "white filling". It can be used in aesthetic cases due to their ability to provide a conservative approach. However composite materials still have their limitations such as their tendency to stain, chip and wear after time.
The steps for composite veneers:
Steps 1: Initial consultation where we assess your desires and your overall goals. We take digital photographs and radiographs as well as impressions to plan your case. We then get a digital copy of your potential smile and we can even trial it in the mouth so you can see what it looks like.
Step 2: The teeth will be prepared, then the composite contoured onto your natural tooth structure. The composite is highly polished to leave a glossy and natural finish.
After a set of veneers, we then need to protect them to increase their lifespan. We do this with a customized night guard, also known as a splint. This fits exactly around your new veneers and protects them from grinding, chipping and general wear and tear. By doing this simple yet affective method, we can add years to your lovely new smile.
Everyone’s goals are a little different, so here at Dentists in Annerley, we believe in a customised approach that best suits you. Our treatment plans are tailored to your goals and desires. We do not believe in a “one size fits all” method.
Everyone has different goals and expectations and this is why we customise a treatment plan best suited to your desires. For us to be able to do this, we need to start with a consultation, to grasp a better idea of your dream smile.

Whitening or bleaching is one of the easiest and most affordable ways to help improve a smile.
In-chair professional bleaching.
With in-chair professional whitening we can achieve many shades whiter than your natural teeth in just 90 minutes! You can walk out with an instantly brighter and more confident smile.
How does this work?
Firstly, a checkup is conducted to ensure the bleaching agent does not get into a cracked or decayed teeth. Then a hygienic clean is done to remove the calculus and build up of tartar so that we are purely bleaching the teeth and to avoid having a spotted appearance. At this stage we start by preparing the mouth and isolating the teeth. A special whitening material is placed on the teeth and a specialised blue light activates the material and starts the bleaching process. This is done in a few intervals until we reach the desired shade. We then give you a take home pack and tips and instructions on how to maintain those beautiful pearly whites!
Take home whitening kit
Here at Dentists in Annerley, as a part of your initial comprehensive exam and clean, we thank you for coming to our clinic with gifting you a complimentary take home bleaching kit.
Steps involved:
An impression of your teeth is taken and we use this to fabricate a model of your teeth. We then create a customised whitening tray which perfectly fits your teeth. A few days later, the bleaching kit and instructions are given to you so that you may start your treatment in the comfort of your own home.
Sometimes we show a little too much gum or too little teeth when we smile and we want to remove this excess gum to reveal our natural teeth underneath.
Crown lengthening is a surgical procedure to expose a larger amount of tooth structure and to reduce the amount of gum showing when you smile. By removing this excess tissue, we allow for a more profound smile.
