Cosmetic Dentistry

We love to help make smiles brighter, straighter and more balanced while keeping your comfort and well-being front and centre. As your cosmetic dentist in Leichhardt, Sydney, Dr Dianne Proctor combines modern technology, evidence-based techniques and a personalised approach to deliver results that look natural and feel comfortable. We create a plan tailored to your goals, whether you want a subtle refresh or a full smile transformation. 

Our staff speaks English, Spanish, Serbian, Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese.

Cosmetic Dentistry Designed for You

We treat every patient as an individual. We begin by understanding your dental history, medical background and personal preferences. For patients with anxiety, sensory sensitivities and/or neurodivergence, we adjust our approach to help make the treatment calm and reassuring. This means we ask about daily routines, medication, material sensitivities and more.

We offer comfort amenities such as pillows, cushions, weighted blankets, a galaxy light projector, sensory toys and tea or coffee. Nitrous oxide sedation is available for patients who need extra relaxation. Our inclusive approach aims to ensure everyone, from first-time visitors to nervous patients, feels cared for.

 

Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry

Choosing cosmetic dentistry offers a range of advantages beyond just improving your smile's appearance.
Refresh Your Smile Safely
Advanced cosmetic dentistry techniques are designed to enhance the look of your teeth while preserving their natural structure. Teeth whitening, veneers and bonding can improve your smile without compromising enamel or tooth integrity.
Address Functional Issues
Cosmetic dentistry can correct minor alignment problems, repair chips or adjust your bite, improving both the function and comfort of your teeth. This means you can enjoy a more comfortable smile that also works better for chewing and speaking.
Enhance Overall Oral Health
Many cosmetic dental treatments can provide long-term oral health benefits. For example, dental crowns and veneers aim to protect weakened teeth, while orthodontic adjustments can prevent uneven wear, reduce stress on gum tissue and align your bite.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, professional whitening is safe when performed under the supervision of a dental professional. The gel used is designed to protect enamel and minimize sensitivity. We always customize the strength of the treatment based on your dental history and sensitivity levels. Additionally, whitening is most effective on natural teeth and may not work on crowns, veneers or fillings.

How Long Will Results Last?

Results vary depending on lifestyle and diet, but with proper oral care, professional whitening can last from several months up to a few years. Regular brushing, limiting stain-causing foods and drinks and periodic touch-ups can help maintain your results. 

How Is the Treatment Performed?

The procedure begins with a thorough examination to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy. A protective barrier is applied to your gums, and the whitening gel is placed on your teeth. In-chair treatments may also use a special light to enhance the whitening process. The full session typically takes about 45–60 minutes, and many patients notice immediate results. For sensitive teeth or additional brightening, take-home trays can be provided for safe, controlled whitening at home.

Our Cosmetic Dentistry Services

Our cosmetic dentistry treatments are designed to enhance the appearance and function of your teeth while maintaining overall oral health. We blend artistry with state-of-the-art technology to help give you a smile that looks amazing and feels natural. 

Here's what we offer: 

  • Teeth Whitening — Remove stains and brighten enamel with professional teeth whitening, such as the Philips Zoom!® system.
  • Dental Veneers — Veneers are thin, custom-made porcelain or composite shells that cover the front of teeth. They can help alter the colour, shape or size of teeth.
  • Composite Bonding — Composite bonding is a tooth-coloured resin that can help repair chips, close gaps or reshape worn teeth. 
  • Orthodontics — Clear aligners or braces can correct minor crowding, spacing and bite issues. Modern treatments allow for discreet, comfortable teeth straightening without compromising daily life.
  • Dental Crowns — These custom-made caps help restore the shape, strength and appearance of damaged or discoloured teeth. 
  • Gum Contouring and Reshaping — Gum contouring and reshaping aim to reshape gumlines. This may be useful for ‘gummy’ smiles or uneven gum shapes.
  • Enamel Shaping and Contouring — Enamel shaping and contouring aim to adjust tooth edges or surfaces to improve symmetry and appearance.
  • Smile Makeovers — A smile makeover is a comprehensive approach combining several treatments to achieve a more refreshed, harmonious smile. 

We integrate restorative techniques such as crowns, bridges, inlays/onlays and composite restorations, depending on the balance of aesthetics and function. Materials include resin composites, fibre-reinforced restorations, ceramic and gold crowns, where appropriate. Some materials even release fluoride to support enamel health! 

All treatment plans, results and timelines vary per patient. For a specific outline of what to expect, we invite you to book a consultation with our cosmetic dentist in Leichhardt, NSW.
