Beautiful teeth – cosmetic dentistry at Gärtnerplatz
A warm, open smile is often the first thing people notice about us. Healthy, attractive teeth do a great deal for your confidence and let you laugh without a second thought. Cosmetic dentistry has been one of our particular interests for many years.
What we aim for is a natural result that suits your face and your personality – never an "off-the-peg" smile. That is why every cosmetic treatment at our practice in central Munich begins with an unhurried, thorough consultation.
What cosmetic dentistry can do
Often it is a few quite specific details that people would like to change. The most common are:
- discoloured or darker teeth
- small gaps between the teeth
- crooked or rotated teeth
- chipped, worn or unevenly shaped teeth
- fillings or crowns that are visible because their colour does not quite match
There is a suitable solution for each of these – from gentle whitening to high-quality all-ceramic restorations.
Our treatments for beautiful teeth
Veneers – very thin ceramic shells
Veneers are very thin ceramic shells bonded to the front surface of the teeth. They can subtly correct the shape and colour of your front teeth, as well as minor irregularities in their position. You can read more on our veneers page.
All-ceramic crowns and inlays in your natural tooth colour
Where tooth structure has been lost, we replace it with high-quality all-ceramic restorations. Ceramic is well tolerated and metal-free, and in colour and translucency it comes very close to a natural tooth. This means we can make crowns and inlays that are barely distinguishable from your own teeth. You can read more under Inlays and Dental prosthetics.
Whitening for brighter teeth
With home bleaching, you whiten your natural teeth at home using custom-made trays, with our guidance throughout. You decide for yourself when you have reached the shade you would like. You can read more under Teeth whitening.
Straighter teeth with aligners
The position of your teeth plays its part in your smile, too. With almost invisible clear aligners, crooked teeth and gaps can still be corrected in adulthood. You can read more under Aligners.
Professional teeth cleaning
Very often, the first step towards lovelier teeth is also the simplest. Professional teeth cleaning (a thorough hygiene appointment) removes plaque and many surface stains, such as those from coffee, tea or smoking. You can read more under Teeth cleaning.
How cosmetic treatment works
- Consultation: You tell us what you would like to change about your smile and what you are hoping for.
- Examination: We check your teeth and gums, because a beautiful restoration needs a healthy foundation.
- A plan made together: We talk you through the options that suit you, including their advantages and disadvantages, what each involves and what it costs.
- Treatment: We work as gently as possible and preserve as much healthy tooth structure as we can.
Frequently asked questions about cosmetic dentistry
Which treatment is right for me?
That depends on what you would like to change and on the condition of your teeth. Discolouration can often be improved with teeth cleaning or whitening alone; changes in shape are more often made with veneers, and irregularities in position with aligners. At your consultation, we will show you which options make sense in your case.
Will it be obvious that my teeth have been treated?
We always aim for a natural result. All-ceramic is very close to a real tooth in colour and in the way it reflects light, and we take great care to match the colour and shape to your other teeth.
Will my health insurance cover the costs?
Purely cosmetic treatments such as bleaching or veneers are usually private services. If a restoration is medically necessary – a crown after a tooth has fractured, for example – statutory health insurance contributes a fixed subsidy. Before any treatment begins, we will give you a cost plan.
