What is aesthetic dentistry?
Teeth caps
Damaged or weakened teeth can be restored by placing dental crowns, fixed protective structures that completely cover the tooth. These crowns restore the shape, size, strength, and aesthetics of the tooth. They provide additional protection to the original tooth, prolonging its durability and health.
Microsurgery and mucogingival surgery
Thanks to microsurgery and mucogingival surgery, we will treat gum recession and achieve a noticeable aesthetic change in a simple and painless way. Gum recession is usually caused by improper brushing, which causes your teeth to lengthen and can lead to sensitivity and discomfort when eating or brushing.
Dental veneers
Dental veneers are thin layers of porcelain or composite resin that are bonded to the teeth to cover their visible part. They are highly effective in correcting minor defects in the colour, shape or size of natural teeth. They can also be used to correct teeth that are not in the correct position.
Lengthening of short teeth
As specialists in periodontics, our clinic is a pioneer in the application of techniques to improve the aesthetics of the smile by lengthening short teeth. We treat the ‘gummy smile’, a condition in which the gums cover part of the tooth enamel. Restoring the teeth to their original size.

Frequently asked questions from our patients about cosmetic dentistry
What is cosmetic dentistry and when is treatment recommended?
Cosmetic dentistry improves the appearance of your smile by aligning, whitening or correcting imperfections in your teeth. If you are unhappy with the colour, shape or position of your teeth, or simply want a more harmonious smile, cosmetic dentistry can help.
What types of cosmetic dental treatments are available?
The most common treatments include teeth whitening, dental veneers, cosmetic contouring, porcelain crowns, and invisible orthodontics. Depending on your case, your dentist will recommend the best option or a combination of several to achieve a natural and attractive smile.
What are dental veneers and how are they fitted?
Veneers are thin layers of ceramic or composite that are bonded to the front of the teeth to improve their shape, colour or position. Before placing them, we will carry out an aesthetic study and, in some cases, slightly wear down the tooth. The placement is quick, painless and the results are immediate.
Does teeth whitening damage teeth?
No. When performed correctly by a professional using quality products, teeth whitening is a safe treatment. Only the enamel is whitened, without affecting the internal structure of the tooth. After the treatment, we recommend avoiding foods that stain for a few days to maintain the results.
Can I have cosmetic treatment if I have fillings, crowns or implants?
Yes, but it is important to review each case individually. For example, fillings or crowns do not change colour with whitening, so we could replace them to match your new smile. If you have implants, we will also assess the overall aesthetics.
How long will it take to see results?
It depends on the treatment. Whitening can show results in a single session. Veneers are placed in 1 to 2 weeks. And if you choose cosmetic orthodontics, such as clear aligners, the process can take several months, although you will notice changes from the very beginning.
Do cosmetic treatments hurt or require anaesthesia?
Most treatments are minimally invasive and do not require anaesthesia. In cases such as veneers or crowns, if minor adjustments are necessary, we use local anaesthesia so that you do not feel any discomfort.
How do I maintain my beautiful smile after treatment?
Good oral hygiene is key: brush after every meal, floss, and have professional cleanings every 6 months. It is also important to avoid habits such as smoking or excessive consumption of coffee or red wine, as these can stain your teeth over time.
