Want a brighter, more even smile?
We start with the health of your teeth, then choose the gentlest way to reach the result you want. For some people that is whitening, for others bonding or veneers.
Whitening lightens natural enamel but does not change fillings or crowns. Veneers are thin shells bonded to the front of teeth to change colour, shape or small gaps.

Which is right for you?
- Stained or yellowing teeth with healthy enamel: whitening
- Small chips or gaps: bonding
- Shape, colour and alignment together: veneers
- Dark teeth that have had a root canal: internal whitening or a crown, after assessment
What happens, step by step
Look
A health check first: gums, decay and bite.
Explain
We show the options, what they involve and the cost.
Treat
Whitening, bonding or veneers, planned and done carefully.
Maintain
We tell you how to keep the result and when to review.
What to know before you decide
Whitening can cause temporary sensitivity, and results differ between people. Veneers usually involve removing a thin layer of enamel, which is permanent, so we explore reversible options first.
We do not show before-and-after images of patients without their written consent.
Questions patients ask
Is whitening safe?
Professionally supervised whitening is considered safe for healthy teeth. Sensitivity is the common side effect.
How long do veneers last?
It depends on the material, your bite and habits such as grinding. We discuss this when planning.
Will whitening match my crowns?
No. Whitening affects natural enamel only. We plan this with you.
Can I whiten if I have gum disease?
We treat the gums first.
Can veneers be removed?
They are generally not reversible, which is why we plan them carefully.
