Is SmileFast Right For You?
Deciding whether SmileFast is right for you requires a clinical assessment of your teeth, gums, bite, oral health, habits and cosmetic goals. SmileFast may be suitable for adults with worn, chipped or uneven teeth who want a conservative option to improve shape, colour or symmetry.
Active decay, gum disease, significant bite concerns, heavy wear or complex alignment issues may mean stabilising oral health or considering another treatment first. Teeth straightening may be discussed where alignment concerns are present, and whitening may be discussed as part of the wider cosmetic plan when appropriate.
Many suitable cases can be completed in one or two appointments depending on the teeth involved, complexity and any preparation required, but the number of appointments varies by case and cannot be guaranteed for every individual.
