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 combines digital planning and an indicative trial smile to help improve tooth shape, colour and symmetry, and this page refers to Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch as a local cultural landmark; Start Smiling Dental Practice is based in Ingatestone and welcomes enquiries from adults in the wider Hornchurch area.
SmileFast is a cosmetic dentistry pathway focused on careful planning and minimal tooth preparation where suitable. It uses digital smile design, an indicative trial smile and minimally invasive composite restorations to aim for improved appearance while preserving natural tooth structure where appropriate.
Start Smiling provides private SmileFast consultations and treatment from our Ingatestone practice and is not affiliated with Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch; the theatre is used here only as a local reference. We explain likely options, the proposed plan and any preparatory care before treatment begins and provide a clear estimate of costs.

How SmileFast can help you
A trial smile can provide an indicative preview of the planned changes before treatment, helping you discuss the design before deciding whether to proceed.
Digital planning and conservative composite work can alter apparent tooth shape to address uneven or misshapen front teeth where suitable.
Composite materials placed as part of the SmileFast plan may improve the apparent shade of treated teeth as appropriate to your goals.
Digital design helps plan balanced proportions across front teeth to achieve a more harmonious appearance where clinically appropriate.
Conservative composite restorations can restore small chips or worn areas depending on clinical assessment and agreed goals.
SmileFast emphasises preserving natural tooth structure where clinically suitable and applies minimal preparation when necessary.
Treatment commonly uses composite materials bonded to teeth with careful technique to achieve the planned aesthetic outcome.
Composite bonding, composite veneers and porcelain veneers may be discussed alongside SmileFast as part of a personalised treatment discussion.
Suitability for SmileFast requires clinical assessment of your teeth, gums, bite and goals before any cosmetic work is agreed.
We explain what SmileFast involves, possible outcomes and any preparatory care so you can make an informed choice.
Digital smile design lets you see proposed proportions and discuss changes before treatment is carried out.
Where suitable we aim to preserve natural tooth structure and use minimally invasive restorative techniques.
Treatment starts from £400 per tooth and a full cost estimate is provided and explained before treatment.
We provide tailored maintenance advice, hygiene support and review appointments to help protect your results.
Every SmileFast plan is agreed individually and may include related care to stabilise oral health before cosmetic work.
We assess your teeth, gums, bite, oral health, habits and cosmetic goals and discuss whether SmileFast is suitable for you.
Photographs and digital tools are used to plan tooth proportions, shape and overall appearance before any restorations.
An indicative trial smile is fitted so you can preview proposed changes and agree adjustments with the clinician before treatment.
Any required preparatory work, such as stabilising decay or addressing gum issues, is completed before cosmetic restorations are placed.
Conservative composite restorations are applied according to the agreed plan using careful, minimally invasive techniques where appropriate.
We review the outcome, provide maintenance advice, and plan any future polishing or repairs as part of ongoing care.
Suitability for SmileFast depends on clinical assessment of your teeth, gums, bite, oral health, habits and cosmetic goals; a consultation will clarify whether SmileFast alone is appropriate or if other care is needed first.
Active decay, gum disease, significant bite concerns, heavy wear or complex alignment issues may require stabilising oral health or considering another treatment before cosmetic restorations are placed.
Teeth straightening may be discussed where alignment concerns affect the cosmetic plan, and whitening may be discussed as part of a wider cosmetic approach where appropriate; these are considered on a case-by-case basis.

Related care that supports cosmetic outcomes
Routine dental examinations to monitor health and confirm suitability for cosmetic work.
Hygiene appointments and personalised oral-hygiene advice to support lasting results.
Conservative restorative care for decay or damaged teeth prior to cosmetic treatment.

Night-guard advice and options if grinding or clenching affects maintenance of restorations.
Discussion of teeth straightening options where alignment affects cosmetic outcomes.
Teeth whitening may be discussed as part of the wider cosmetic plan where appropriate.
