Is SmileFast Right For You?
SmileFast may suit adults who want to improve tooth shape, colour or symmetry with a conservative, composite-based approach and digital planning. Suitability depends on a clinical assessment of your teeth, gums, bite, habits and cosmetic aims.
Active decay, untreated gum disease, marked bite problems, heavy wear or complex alignment concerns may mean we recommend stabilising oral health or discussing alternative treatments first. Many suitable cases can be completed in one or two appointments, but the number of visits varies by individual needs.
You will receive a clear estimate and explanation of the proposed plan during consultation so you can decide whether SmileFast fits your needs and expectations.
