Cosmetic dental treatment can be thought of as treatments that are used to straighten, lighten, reshape and restore teeth - these treatments are not covered under the NHS or use "more expensive" procedures and materials when the work is carried out.

Cosmetic treatments tend to look better and last longer in people who have healthy teeth and gums, so it is essential that any tooth decay or gum disease should be treated before cosmetic dentistry begins.

Cosmetic treatments include:

Fillings, crowns, onlays, inlays, root fillings and veeners which are used to restore decayed, worn or broken teeth or those affected by gum disease.

Tooth-coloured fillings are used to fill cavities that have formed in your teeth instead of amalgam (silver) fillings, making them a natural-looking alternative.
