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.
Start Smiling Dental Practice offers SmileFast cosmetic smile design with careful planning and minimally invasive composite restorations; this page references Ingatestone Village Market only as a familiar local landmark for people in the Ingatestone area considering SmileFast.
SmileFast is a cosmetic dentistry system that combines digital smile planning, an indicative trial smile and conservative composite restorations where suitable. Our consultations assess teeth, gums and bite, discuss goals and explain whether SmileFast or another cosmetic pathway is the best option for you.
We will explain likely costs and next steps before any treatment proceeds; SmileFast at Start Smiling starts from £400 per tooth, with a full estimate provided after assessment and planning tailored to your individual needs.

How SmileFast can support conservative cosmetic change
A trial smile can provide an indicative preview of the planned changes before treatment, helping you discuss the design before deciding whether to proceed.
Minimally invasive composite restorations can reshape worn, chipped or uneven teeth to create a more harmonious appearance.
Composite work can be used to match or improve tooth shade as part of the agreed smile plan.
Conservative composite restorations can repair small defects while preserving natural tooth tissue where suitable.
Reshaping selected teeth can help create a better left-right balance in your smile appearance.
Many suitable cases can be completed with conservative techniques for those seeking relatively modest aesthetic change.
Whitening or teeth straightening may be discussed alongside SmileFast where appropriate to the overall plan.
SmileFast focuses on careful planning and preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible depending on the individual plan.
If stabilising dental care is needed before cosmetic work, we will explain options and sequencing clearly during your consultation.
We discuss goals, options and likely outcomes in clear, balanced terms so you can make an informed decision.
Digital smile design helps you visualise proposed changes and provide feedback before treatment.
SmileFast emphasises minimally invasive composite restorations and preserving natural tooth structure where appropriate.
We explain SmileFast costs before any treatment, with a starting price of £400 per tooth and a full estimate after assessment.
Your clinician will outline alternatives such as composite bonding or porcelain veneers and discuss which options suit your goals and teeth.
We provide review appointments, maintenance advice and guidance to help maintain results over time.
A clinical review of teeth, gums and bite plus a discussion of your aesthetic goals to determine suitability for SmileFast.
Using digital planning to propose shape and proportion changes for your review and feedback.
An indicative trial smile is applied to preview proposed changes and allow adjustments before definitive work.
Any necessary stabilising or preparatory care such as restorative or gum treatment is arranged before cosmetic work where indicated.
Conservative composite restorations are placed according to the agreed plan to improve shape, colour or symmetry where suitable.
Scheduled reviews, hygiene and maintenance advice are provided, with polishing or repairs as required to help preserve results.
SmileFast may suit adults seeking conservative aesthetic change to tooth shape, colour or symmetry and those with worn, chipped or slightly uneven teeth. Suitability depends on a full assessment of teeth, gums, bite, oral health, habits and personal goals.
Active decay, gum disease, significant bite concerns, heavy tooth wear or complex alignment issues may need stabilising or a different pathway before cosmetic work. Teeth straightening may be discussed where alignment concerns affect the intended outcome.
Your clinician will explain possible limitations and alternatives, and provide an individual estimate so you can decide whether SmileFast is the right approach for your smile goals.
