What is Tooth Decay? | Advantages | How Long will this Treatment Take? | Before & After
Our latest techniques will help with the appearance of your front and back teeth that have had decay or caries.For more information on Cosmetic Dentistry click here
A decayed tooth is when a tooth has become infected with bacteria. If the infection is not removed then it can lead to extensive damage sometimes involving painful abscesses and tooth removal.
The hole created in a tooth as a result of tooth decay is known as a “cavity”. This needs to be restored. A variety of dental materials including porcelain or tooth coloured filled resins can be used to restore the tooth back to its entirety.
Tooth decay (sometimes also known as Caries) is a common dental problem that requires treatment. Antibiotics do not treat this infection and are ineffective until the infection runs deep into softer tissues. Complex treatment is then needed to contain and treat the situation.
If you have teeth that visibly look unsightly and dark it may be due to caries and breakdown. We can help you to restore your teeth back to health and re-enhance your smile.
Prior to considering your teeth for any cosmetic improvement, we will remove any dental decay from your teeth and restore your teeth accordingly. The long-term health of your teeth is of the utmost importance and hence it is vital these teeth are free of dental decay.
Any cosmetic solutions recommended will be based upon creating a healthy foundation for your teeth, gums and smile. In this way we will be able to achieve ultimate cosmetic enhancement, a beautiful smile and healthy teeth.
The treatment is very simple and can often be carried out in a single visit. However, additional appointments may become necessary if any additional work needs to be done alongside the removal of the decay. This may involve restoring the tooth with ceramic work.
We can use a wide selection of the latest state-of-the-art technology and techniques to create a great cosmetically appealing and functional end-result.
The process starts with a FREE discovery consultation where we discuss your needs and requirements with a Computerised Photographic Assessment to help you understand the possibilities.
We are at this stage able to assist you with potential options available to you. Depending on your requirements we can customise and tailor-make individual treatments plans to suit your needs and budgets. You can opt for simple procedures to more complex involved treatments plans to produce your beautiful new smile. Our aim is answer your questions and provide you with the advantages and disadvantages.
We can also provide you with a computer-aided smile analysis and a hand crafted Trial Preview, to gives you the opportunity to see your smile before we even touch your teeth. We also use Bite Analysis technology to ensure a long lasting, comfortable and a healthy final result.
I cannot thank Dr Doshi and all his amazing staff enough for making me feel so comfortable and at ease.
They have given me something that I have always missed, the confidence to smile, I wish I had taken the step to enhance my life earlier.
The Perfect Smile is unlike any other dentist that I have attended. The friendly atmosphere and facilities are second to none.
Not once was I put under any pressure to go ahead with my treatment, but I'm glad I did. Worth every penny.
Look out anyone who's holding a camera.
I suppose being of a certain age one tends to think of a dentist as a NHS doctor, interested purely in your well-being. The Perfect Smile approach is basically not realty about patient well-being (at all) but making a profit, they are of course a private enterprise and only exist to make money.
Nothing wrong with that as long as you know what your letting yourself in for.
The ‘free’ consultation is nothing more than a sales pitch showing you lots of before and after pics and letters of recommendation (all at least 10 years old). Then it start to get expensive, the full consultation is £200 this includes a treatment plan. I did this, my appointment started 15 mins late (no explanation) and before I knew it I had a treatment plan that totalled £32,000. Yes that’s right £32,000.
Ok that was the full Monty (12 veneers etc.) but what was painfully clear is the desire at all time to upsell you to include everything possible chargeable, probably knowing that you would settle for less – but hey you got a nice cup of coffee while you waited.
Ok so Im being harsh, yes probably (as I doubt I will continue the treatment), I got no follow up call, but gritted my teeth (haha) and decided to call them to arrange an appointment for the hygienist (despite having only been 3 months ago they reckoned I needed two one hour sessions costing £250). The incredibly unhelpful receptionists said they had no appointments available for 3 weeks.
At this point I thought hang on let’s compare and contrast ‘perfect smile’ with my usual dentist. My private dentist charges £51 for a 45 min session with a hygienist (available next day), Perfect Smile charge £125 for one hour, assuming you can wait three weeks, a quick search on the internet reveals that Perfect Smile are way more expensive across the board pretty much for all treatments than your standard private (im not talking national health here) dentist.
Of course they are all those sales staff, frothy coffee and glossy adverts cost money, which we the patient have to pay for. So bottom before embarking on any treatment with PS do compare with other private dentists, if you like frothy coffee, high pressure sales, long wait for appointments etc. by all means go ahead, if you’re more financially astute and time sensitive do look elsewhere.

Answer a few simple questions and you can begin your journey on having dental veneers.
Porcelain is the number one choice when it comes to Veneers. They are thin, ceramic shells designed to give you a natural smile. Ultrathin, Durathin and Lumineers are just a few of the brands we provide.
Composite veneers require little or no tooth preparation at all. Have your veneers fitted in as little as one appointment. Composite veneers are more cost-effective than other types of veneers.
