A smile that feels like yours — only better.
Whitening, veneers, bonding, gentle reshaping. Done in your own way, on your own timeline. We'd rather you look like a slightly better version of yourself than a different person entirely.
Treatments under Cosmetic.
Mostly small adjustments. Occasionally bigger ones.
Professional whitening
In-office in about an hour, or a custom at-home kit. We start gentle — easier to add a shade than take one back.
Porcelain veneers
Thin shells bonded to the front of teeth. Conservatively designed — we keep most of your natural tooth.
Composite bonding
Same-day reshaping with tooth-coloured resin. Great for small chips, gaps, and uneven edges.
Smile makeovers
A full plan combining whitening, alignment, and restorative work. We start with a conversation and a mock-up — never the drill.
Gum reshaping
Quick laser tidy-up if your smile feels gummy or uneven. Heals in days.
What we'll do — and what we won't.
We won't sell you something you didn't ask about. We won't talk you into eight veneers when bonding on two would do the same job. And we won't whiten teeth so far past your natural tone that the rest of your face looks tired.
What we will do: take time to understand what's actually bothering you (sometimes it's the shape, not the colour). Show you a mock-up before we touch anything irreversible. And keep the option open to do more later if you want — we'd rather work in steps than commit you to a redo.
Listen
What's bothering you, exactly? Sometimes it's not what you'd guess.
Show
Photos, mock-ups, sometimes a temporary preview. So you decide with eyes open.
Smallest move first
Whitening before veneers. Bonding before crowns. Always.
Refine if needed
Cosmetic work is rarely one-and-done. We tweak.

Restorative & Implants
A craftsperson — implants and crowns built to last decades, not years.
Common questions about cosmetic care.
Yes, when done at sensible concentrations and not constantly repeated. We start at lower strengths and check in. Real risk is sensitivity, not damage — and that's manageable.
Well-made porcelain veneers commonly last 15+ years with care. Bonding is shorter — 5 to 10 — but it's reversible and a fraction of the cost.
Yes. We do digital mockups for all veneer cases, and temporary "trial smiles" for bigger plans. You see it before we commit to anything.
Probably, for most natural staining. It doesn't change the colour of existing crowns, veneers, or fillings — that's worth knowing before you start.
Honestly varies — whitening is a few hundred, full veneer cases run several thousand. We'll give you written numbers after the consult. No "starting at" pricing.
