SmileFast Cosmetic Planning Near Hanningfield Reservoir
Start Smiling Dental Practice is based in Ingatestone and offers SmileFast cosmetic assessments for adults in the wider Chelmsford and Billericay area, including those based around Hanningfield Reservoir. SmileFast combines digital smile planning, an indicative trial smile and conservative composite restorations where suitable, and suitability is confirmed by a clinical assessment of teeth, gums, bite, habits and goals.
Private SmileFast Treatment Near Hanningfield Reservoir
Our private SmileFast pathway begins with a consultation and smile assessment at our Ingatestone practice. The process uses digital planning and an indicative trial smile before any SmileFast composite treatment, with the aim of enhancing tooth shape, colour or symmetry while preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible where clinically appropriate.
Suitability depends on your oral health and goals. Active decay, gum disease, significant bite concerns, heavy wear or complex alignment issues may require stabilising care or another treatment first. Many suitable cases can be completed in one or two appointments depending on the teeth involved and any preparatory care needed, and SmileFast treatment starts from £400 per tooth.
How SmileFast Can Help
SmileFast offers a planned, conservative approach with a visual preview before treatment proceeds.
Improve Tooth Shape
02
Conservative composite restorations guided by digital planning can help alter the apparent shape of teeth where appropriate.
Correct Minor Chips
03
Small chips and edge defects can often be restored with colour-matched composite to improve appearance.
Even Tooth Symmetry
04
Digital planning can help bring better visual symmetry to teeth affected by size or shape differences.
Restore Worn Teeth
05
Where wear has changed tooth shape, SmileFast may restore a more balanced appearance while aiming to preserve structure.
Minimise Tooth Removal
06
The system focuses on minimal tooth preparation where suitable and limits alteration to natural tooth structure.
Combine With Other Treatments
07
SmileFast may be combined with whitening, teeth straightening or other cosmetic treatments where appropriate.
Compare Treatment Options

SmileFast can be considered alongside composite bonding, composite veneers and porcelain veneers depending on clinical needs.
