At Clifton Hill Dental, we focus on oral health and improving wellness for the entire body by taking care of the teeth and gums. How you feel about your smile also has an impact on your wellbeing and being unable to express yourself with a smile you feel proud of can cause feelings of self-consciousness and give off the wrong impression about you.

If you want whiter teeth, a straighter smile or teeth that look perfect like your favourite celebrity’s, reach out to us. A cosmetic dentistry consultation with one of our Clifton Hill Dentists will help you decide the best approach to achieve your ideal smile. We always welcome your call to arrange an appointment at our Clifton Hill, VIC dental clinic, and we warmly welcome new patients.

Choosing the Right Cosmetic Dental Treatment

If you enjoy good oral health but are unhappy about the way your smile looks, you might have done some research on cosmetic dentistry treatments in Clifton Hill, VIC. And you might have even felt overwhelmed by the seemingly endless number of options available.

Over the years, Dr Nick Malamas and his team have learned to truly listen to their patients, and this knack for really hearing what people are saying means he can help guide you into choosing the best cosmetic dental treatment for your lifestyle as well as your budget. With Dr Malamas and his team’s guidance, we can work with you to develop a treatment programme that will enable you to reach your smile goals.

Our dentists will talk to you about your specific concerns, as well as whether or not you have specific cosmetic dental treatments in mind. When you come into our Clifton Hill, VIC dental clinic to talk about the goals for your smile, we suggest you have a list of written questions. We want you to take full advantage of the time you spend with our dentists so you can make the best decision for your oral health.

Once our dentists understand your goals, they can talk to you about options—and make sure you know exactly what to expect with cosmetic treatment at our Clifton Hill, VIC dental clinic.

We Offer Professional Teeth Whitening

Getting a whiter and brighter smile is one of the least invasive and least expensive cosmetic dental treatments around. Many people appreciate how quickly it can the look of their smile—particularly if they are preparing for a big day and want whiter teeth for a wedding, reunion or other event.

Teeth bleaching products seem to flood the shelves of salons, spas and shops these days, but the results from store-bought teeth whitening products can vary. Many of the generic over-the-counter products seep onto the gums, causing sensitivity and often result in less than stellar outcomes.

There are several reasons why patients tend to be happier with teeth whitening at our Clifton Hill, VIC dental clinic over products purchased in shops.

  • You can relax after having professional teeth whitening, knowing that you are with an experienced dental professional in case you experience sensitivity or have any questions after teeth whitening treatment.

We offer both in-house and take-home teeth whitening options depending on our patients’ goals for their smiles. In-house teeth whitening at our Clifton Hill, VIC top dentist will provide up to several shades of improvement in about one hour in the dental chair.

Take-home teeth whitening utilises custom trays to keep professional-strength whitening gel where it belongs—on your teeth. Trays are reusable for touch-ups any time your smile needs a boost.

Tooth-Coloured Dentistry

Until recent decades, dentistry usually left a mark on your smile. Modern fillings, veneers, crowns, bridges, dental implants and veneers now blend in with your smile using modern tooth-coloured materials such as ceramic and composite. Our dentists will custom match the shade of your dentistry to your natural teeth for a seamless result.

Tooth-coloured fillings provide a natural look for taking care of tooth decay. The fillings blend in so well, no one will know you even have a filling. Made of a composite material, tooth-coloured fillings at our Clifton Hill, VIC dental clinic are strong and durable. They are less likely to cause tooth fractures as do metal amalgam fillings.

The same material we use for tooth-coloured fillings is also ideal for a procedure we call cosmetic dental bonding. Dental bonding at our Clifton Hill, VIC dental clinic is great for making repairs to teeth—even at the front of the mouth. If you have a gapped, chipped or cracked tooth, cosmetic bonding is a quick way to make the repair to restore your smile—and you can usually have the procedure completed in just one visit to our Clifton Hill, VIC dental clinic.

Dental bonding can be a more affordable alternative to porcelain veneers for fixing small imperfections in your smile.

For teeth that have more extensive damage, a dental crown can restore the form and function. Dental crowns are made to match the look and colour of the adjacent teeth, and they can restore a tooth that has been damaged so that you can chew on it again. Dental crowns are often used to strengthen a tooth that has been weakened by a root canal.

Dental Veneers for Beautiful Results

For cosmetic procedures, tooth-coloured restorations can improve the appearance of teeth. Veneers, specifically, can improve the shape, colour, uniformity and alignment of teeth in a single procedure.

Veneers come in both chairside composite and lab-created ceramic depending on patient preference and needs. Chairside immediate veneers are a faster and more affordable solution. Ceramic veneers provide greater durability and superior aesthetics.

Many of the perfect smiles you see on your favourite celebrity are the result of cosmetic dental procedures such as veneers.

Cosmetic Braces with Invisalign

Misaligned teeth can impact your appearance, which is why many people opt for clear braces to improve their smiles. In many cases, Invisalign clear braces are a logical first choice when planning for cosmetic improvement to your smile. Properly aligned teeth are easier to restore, more comfortable and functional and can give your smile the boost you want.

We Welcome You to Get in Touch

If you have questions about Invisalign clear braces, veneers, teeth whitening, dental crowns or any cosmetic dentistry procedure, we would love to hear from you. We will arrange a cosmetic dentistry consultation with one of our dentists to help you decide on the best treatment for the future of your smile.
