Are your patients happy with the appearance of their smile? You might be surprised to learn that the majority of adults desire to change at least one thing about their teeth or their smile. At Melbourne Institute of Aesthetic Dentistry, you will learn the nuances and advanced techniques now available to dentists that often are not covered comprehensively in dental school.
Here is a list of the most common concerns about the appearance of a smile, and the treatments we can help you improve your practice to offer optimal results to every patient.
Cracked or Damaged Teeth
Our teeth may be strong, but sometimes even the healthiest tooth can be damaged by trauma and accidents. Depending on where the damage is located, and the extent of the repair required, modern aesthetic dentistry techniques allow indetectable porcelain or composite resin restorations that blend in and behave like natural, strong tooth tissue.
Stained Teeth
The colour or ‘shade’ of your teeth can depend on a variety of factors, including genetics, health and lifestyle factors. Teeth stained from coffee, red wine, smoking or discolouration caused by some medications can significantly age the smile.
Missing Teeth
A missing tooth can completely alter a person’s appearance. Thankfully the functionality and balance of the smile can be restored using moden dental technologies. There the Melbourne Aesthetic Dental Centre offers a variety of treatments to restore a smile.

Crooked or Misaligned Teeth
Crooked, gappy or spaced teeth is something we often have little control over as we grow and develop. With modern aesthetic dental techniques, the appearance of teeth, including size, shape, alignment and spacing, can be modified to create a harmonious, balanced and natural looking smile.

Old Amalgam / Mercury / Metal Fillings
