Is SmileFast Right For You?
SmileFast may suit adults seeking cosmetic change to tooth shape, colour or symmetry using a largely conservative approach. Whether it is right for you depends on the condition of your teeth, gums and bite and on your cosmetic goals.
Active decay, gum disease, significant bite concerns, heavy wear or complex alignment issues may mean those problems should be stabilised or managed before SmileFast is considered. Where alignment or whitening could improve the cosmetic outcome, these may be discussed as part of a wider plan.

Routine check-ups and hygiene appointments to maintain oral health before and after cosmetic work.
Restorative fillings and simple tooth repair to stabilise teeth where decay or damage is present.
Gum treatment and periodontal care when active disease is identified and needs stabilising.
Teeth whitening may be discussed as part of the wider cosmetic plan where appropriate.
Simple orthodontic options may be discussed if alignment concerns are present prior to cosmetic restorations.
