Don’t you feel kinda disappointed when you see celebrities with sparkling-white smiles, smiling on the magazine covers or in TV shows. Me too. I used to feel like mother nature wasn’t generous enough to me, to give me perfect teeth and sparkling white smile like Cheryl Cole, Catherine Zeta-Jones or Victoria Beckam. I say “I used to” because it was until the moment I saw before-and-after pictures of their teeth and learned that they owe their smiles to cosmetic dentistry.
That was the moment that gave me hope that I can have a Hollywood-style smile, and a reason for me to start a quest for the best cosmetic dentistry Melbourne clinic. And guess what… now I have a smile I can show off proudly. I no longer have to smile covering my teeth with my hand and feeling so un-confident.

I have prepared a complete guide to cosmetic dentistry, or more specifically a guide to the techniques and procedures that lie behind the brightest smiles in Hollywood, and the cosmetic dentistry procedures that can transform your smile and with that change your life.
If you are interested in doing something good in favour of improving your smile, keep on reading to learn about the procedures and techniques that are available in most of the cosmetic dentistry Melbourne clinics. But, before that let’s share few words on cosmetic dentistry in general.
Cosmetic dentistry is a dental medicine branch that deals with improving the teeth aesthetic. There are different cosmetic dentistry procedures that are performed depending on the type of the aesthetic problem or teeth damage (discoloration, chipping, gapping, cracking, tooth decay etc.)
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin porcelain shells which are made of special ceramic materials used in dentistry. Veneers are used for covering tooth imperfections such as uneven tooth shape, damages such as chips and cracks and stains that cannot be removed otherwise.
Tooth Bonding
In cases of minor tooth cracks and chips, for which major teeth procedures cannot be used, a special tooth bonding procedure is performed. This procedure includes blending special composite materials to the damaged part of the teeth. The material is chosen depending on the natural colour of your teeth.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth discoloration is one of the most common dental, aesthetic problems. It happens as a result of our daily habits such as drinking coffee and tea, smoking, improper dental hygiene, etc. There are several teeth whitening techniques and procedures that cosmetic dentistry Melbourne dentists perform. To choose the best teeth whitening technique you ought to consult with one beforehand.
Teeth Fillings
Teeth fillings are made from special composite materials that resemble the structure and the colour of teeth. The special dental fillings are used to fill cavities and prevent existing tooth decay to progress.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are perfect solution to hide major teeth damages and protect teeth from further damages and tooth decay. They are designed to cover the teeth and are specially designed to fit each patient specifically and with that to provide an aesthetically pleasing effect to his/her smile and overall look.
