It all begins with a detailed consultation to understand your goals and create a personalised dental treatment plan that suits your needs.

Whether you’re looking to fix chips, close gaps, or create a flawless finish for your teeth, our cosmetic dental treatments are designed to enhance your natural teeth with long-lasting, beautiful results.
Composite bonding is a minimally invasive treatment ideal for those looking to enhance their smile with subtle changes to tooth shape. This technique uses a tooth-coloured resin to repair chipped, uneven, or discoloured teeth - often in just one visit.
The material is shaped and polished to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, making it a fantastic option for those wanting a fast, affordable, and natural-looking outcome without removing healthy enamel.
Veneers offer a highly effective way to transform your smile. At Foxley Lane Dental, we offer a wide range of veneer options.
These ultra-thin layers are bonded to the front of your teeth to cover imperfections like chips, discolouration, or minor misalignment. If you're looking for a minimally invasive option, no-prep veneers - such as our revolutionary SmileFast treatment - requires little to no enamel removal. Porcelain veneers are known for their durability and natural appearance, lasting up to 20 years with proper care.
During your consultation, our dentists will help you choose the most suitable veneer type based on your aesthetic goals and dental health.
Crowns are ideal when a tooth needs both cosmetic and structural support - especially after large restorations, root canal treatment, or damage. Designed to look just like natural teeth, they restore shape, strength, and function while blending beautifully with your existing smile. We use the highest quality materials to ensure your crown feels comfortable, looks natural, and stands the test of time.
Foxley Lane Dental is renowned as a Diamond Apex provider of Invisalign treatment, which works as an effective and subtle method for aligning your teeth. The custom-crafted Invisalign aligners - made from flexible, transparent, medical-grade thermoplastic - are nearly imperceptible, making them a discreet alternative to unsightly conventional braces, allowing you the convenience and comfort of straightening your teeth without attracting undue attention.
The process involved with Invisalign can take anywhere from 3 to 18 months based on personal requirements and the complexity of your dental alignment needs. Your unique set of Invisalign aligners will be meticulously designed to initiate certain movements within your teeth’s positioning, guaranteeing not only precise management, but also ensuring optimal outcomes over the course of receiving this specialised treatment.
Our professional teeth whitening treatments can deliver noticeable results after just a few applications, helping you achieve a whiter smile safely and effectively. We use hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide - both proven to break down stains on the teeth within safe, legal limits. For patients with sensitive teeth, we also offer products containing potassium nitrate to minimise discomfort throughout the procedure.
Depending on your lifestyle and preferences, you can choose between in-practice treatments or convenient take-home kits. Each option includes a high-quality bleaching gel designed to enhance your smile’s brightness while being gentle on enamel.
Whether you're after quick in-chair results or the flexibility of having your teeth whitened at home, our treatments are tailored to help you achieve a white, bright smile that beams with confidence.
Dental restorations repair or replace damaged or missing teeth to restore their natural function and appearance. Common types of dental restorations include fillings, crowns, and veneers, which can be used to repair teeth that are decayed, chipped, or discoloured. These restorations not only improve the look of your teeth but also enhance their strength and functionality.
In addition to repairing damaged teeth, dental restorations can also replace missing teeth using options such as bridges, dentures, or implants. A dental hygienist plays a crucial role in maintaining these restorations by providing regular cleanings and check-ups, ensuring they remain in optimal condition. By choosing the right type of dental restoration, you can enjoy a healthy and beautiful smile for years to come.
Aftercare is a vital part of any cosmetic dentistry treatment, helping you maintain results and avoid complications. Those who have undergone treatments like veneers or Invisalign should follow their dentist’s instructions carefully. This may include avoiding certain foods or activities for a period of time.
Regular check-ups and cleanings with a dental hygienist are essential to prevent issues such as sensitive teeth or gum disease and to keep your beautiful smile looking its best. By prioritising aftercare, you can protect your oral health and enjoy long-term results. Your dentist or dental hygienist can provide tailored advice and help you create a personalised maintenance plan to suit your needs and goals.
