Preview Your Planned Smile
A trial smile can provide an indicative preview of the planned changes before treatment, helping you discuss the design before deciding whether to proceed.
SmileFast at Start Smiling provides digital smile planning, an indicative trial smile and minimally invasive composite restorations for adults around Hall Mead School; our team at the Ingatestone practice assesses teeth, gums, bite and habits before recommending any cosmetic work and explains any preparatory care needed.
SmileFast is a digital-first cosmetic dentistry system that combines careful planning, an indicative trial smile and composite restorations designed to preserve natural tooth structure where suitable.
Treatment pricing for SmileFast starts from £400 per tooth; total cost depends on the number of teeth treated and case complexity and will be explained before any work begins.
Consultations include a face-to-face assessment, digital planning and discussion of any related or preparatory care such as treating decay or stabilising gum health when needed.

SmileFast can help with a variety of conservative cosmetic concerns using planning and composite restorations.
A trial smile can provide an indicative preview of the planned changes before treatment, helping you discuss the design before deciding whether to proceed.

Composite can restore small chips and minor surface damage with minimal preparation where appropriate.
Digital planning supports adjustments to uneven teeth to create a more symmetrical smile design when suitable.
SmileFast may offer conservative options for worn or shortened front teeth depending on cause and assessment.
The system focuses on preserving natural tooth structure where clinically appropriate and safe.

Follow-up reviews, hygiene advice and maintenance guidance are provided to help preserve results and manage repairs.
SmileFast may suit adults seeking conservative cosmetic change to tooth shape, colour or symmetry, or repair of worn or chipped front teeth where oral health and bite are stable. Suitability always requires a clinical assessment that considers teeth, gums, bite, habits and goals.
Active decay, untreated gum disease, significant bite problems, heavy wear or complex alignment concerns may mean we recommend stabilising oral health or discussing alternative treatments first. Teeth straightening and whitening may be discussed as part of a wider plan where appropriate.
Our approach is to recommend the most appropriate, conservative pathway for your teeth and aims, explain any preparatory care and set realistic expectations about likely outcomes before treatment proceeds.

Related care may be needed before or after SmileFast depending on assessment.
Regular dental examinations to monitor oral health before and after cosmetic work.
Professional hygiene appointments to control gum health and surface staining.
Treatment of decay and structural issues that must be stabilised before cosmetic steps.

Advice and provision of night guards when grinding or clenching contributes to wear.
Discussion of whitening as part of a wider cosmetic plan where appropriate.
Assessment and referral for teeth straightening if alignment affects cosmetic planning.
