Aesthetic Dentistry

“All human longings are about beauty.” (Rufenacht CR.)

In ancient Greece, aesthesia meant something like sensation or sensitivity. In modern European languages such as German, aesthetics refers to the perception of beauty. The term cosmetics also comes from Greek – there, kosmos meant something like adornment or ornament. In the view of some dentists, aesthetics and cosmetics are not necessarily the same thing.

Aesthetic dentistry enhances the natural beauty of the mouth and face not through superficial means, but through genuine structural change.

That is why, over the last 20 years, I have devoted myself to aesthetic and reconstructive dentistry – and to orthodontics, which is essential for carrying it out perfectly – through numerous further training courses and master’s programmes.

Aesthetic dentistry has become increasingly important in recent years. Many people want a radiant smile and are willing to do something for it. Modern dentistry offers numerous treatment methods for this.

A so-called “smile makeover” can help achieve the result you want. It improves the overall appearance of your smile by combining different treatments.

One of the best-known treatments in aesthetic dentistry is veneers. These are wafer-thin ceramic shells that are bonded to the surface of the teeth. Veneers can help with many aesthetic problems, such as discoloured teeth, gaps between teeth or chipped teeth. They give you a radiant smile and are also very durable.

Bleaching – that is, whitening the teeth – is also part of aesthetic dentistry. Special bleaching agents are used to remove discolouration from the teeth. The result is a radiant white smile. There are bleaching methods carried out at the dental practice as well as do-it-yourself methods for use at home.

Another way to improve your smile is with dental implants. These are artificial tooth roots that are placed in the jawbone. A crown or bridge can then be fitted onto this artificial root. Unlike conventional dentures, dental implants are barely distinguishable from natural teeth and give you a perfect smile.

Invisible braces, also known as Invisalign, are also part of aesthetic dentistry. Clear plastic aligners are used to move the teeth gently into the desired position. Unlike conventional braces, they are barely visible and so do not get in the way of everyday life.

All in all, aesthetic dentistry offers numerous treatment options. Individual advice from a specialised dentist is essential to find the right treatment for your own needs.
