Our Cosmetic Dentistry Services
After identifying what problem the patient aims to improve, we can choose from the following treatments:
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers are wafer-thin shells designed with state-of-the-art technology to conceal a wide range of cosmetic flaws on the teeth. Each shell can bond to the front surfaces of the teeth to cover severe stains, chips, gappy teeth, or minor damage to the teeth. These are popular choices because they are made from medical-grade materials that make them durable and may last for many years with proper oral care.

Smile Makeovers
If you're looking for a comprehensive smile makeover, you'll want to visit the friendly team at Joondanna Family Dental. We use a holistic approach to create treatment plans, combining two or more cosmetic dental services with other services to enhance the smile. This is an efficient way to address a range of cosmetic problems in one plan instead of undergoing multiple individual dental treatments.
Teeth Whitening
Over time, the teeth can become discoloured and stained because of lifestyle, food, or habits. As a result, a smile can look dull and affect the overall appearance. At Joondanna Family Dental, we offer professional teeth whitening that may safely and dramatically lighten the shade of the teeth after one or more sessions. Dentists use safe methods and quality active ingredients to break down tooth stains. The process typically involves using a special light to help the whitening solution on the teeth. Suppose you're looking for a way to brighten your smile; consult with us.

FAQs about Cosmetic Dentistry
Who is eligible for a cosmetic dental procedure?
When considering cosmetic dentistry, it is important to consult a professional to determine if you are an appropriate candidate. The dentist will check your health condition, which involves examining your mouth, teeth, and gums. In general, eligible patients are the following:
- Practise good oral hygiene.
It can be essential if the patient is already practising oral care at home. - Do not have active tooth decay or gum disease.
Any existing dental problems must be addressed first by the dentist before undergoing cosmetic dentistry. - Have good gum health Your gums should also be in good condition. Otherwise, certain cosmetic treatments can be difficult to perform when there’s irritation or a problem with the gum tissues.
- Have enough tooth enamel.
Weakened teeth may need restorative work before receiving cosmetic dentistry. - Have realistic expectations for the results of treatment.
While it is possible to achieve a beautiful perfect smile, it is important to understand the process and what can be achieved. - Have cosmetic problems.
Individuals who have chipped teeth, broken teeth, discoloured teeth, crowded teeth, or damaged teeth are good candidates and can benefit from cosmetic dentistry.
Are cosmetic dental procedures safe?
What are the risks of cosmetic dentistry?
Each procedure may pose different risks, and not all cosmetic treatments are suitable for all patients. It’s essential to consult with the dentist beforehand to find ways how to reduce the likelihood of complications possibly. Keep in mind that the results are typically irreversible once done, so ensure you are certain before proceeding.
Here is the list of possible risks:
- Removal of a thin layer of teeth.
Dental veneers typically require removing a layer of enamel or the surface of the teeth to allow the thin shells to be bonded. In rare cases, excessive removal can cause weakened tooth structure. - Increased teeth sensitivity.
You may experience some sort of sensitivity following the treatment, such as tooth whitening or veneers (due to enamel removal). - Gum irritation.
Applying active ingredients or veneers may irritate your gum tissues and cause mild discomfort.
The dentist can address these reactions, so it’s important to inform them immediately if you experience persistent pain or damage. You can contact us to determine the ideal course of action to prevent further complications.
How does teeth whitening work?
What should I expect with dental veneers?
The dentist may use a specific tool to remove a millimetre amount of enamel and take an impression of your teeth to make a mould. Then, it will be forward to the laboratory where the dental veneers are customised, which generally takes one to two weeks. In the meantime, you need to wear temporary veneers until the actual ones are ready.
You can expect to have your smile transform significantly with dental veneers. Since each shell is designed to cover tooth imperfections, it can make your teeth appear evenly shaped and whiter. But still offers a natural-looking smile. Although, other types may not need the impressions of your teeth and can be done in one visit, such as composite resin veneers.

Why are cosmetic dental procedures expensive?
Cosmetic dentistry is expensive for many reasons. Most dentists who qualify to perform each procedure require extensive training, use high-quality materials, and cutting-edge technology (or digital dentistry). Which undoubtedly comes with a high cost. Also, the complexity of the work and the details to enhance the teeth take great effort. Since most cosmetic dental treatments are not covered by dental insurance, patients are typically responsible for paying for the entire cost. These factors can make cosmetic dentistry an expensive investment but one that can provide significant benefits. And many patients feel that the results are well worth the price.
If you’re worried about the high cost, our office offers easy-to-manage payment plans to make your treatment more accessible.
