Our Signature Cosmetic Treatments
Dental Implants
Dental Implants are the gold standard when replacing missing, damaged, or decayed teeth, whether you need a single tooth replaced or a full arch solution (often called all-on-4).
Titanium posts are surgically placed into your jawbone to support Crowns, Bridges or Dentures.
We can also perform advanced dental Bone Grafts and Sinus Lifts if needed, before fitting implants.
Invisalign Clear Braces
The perfect orthodontic solution for busy professionals who want a straighter smile in months, not years. We use Invisalign® clear aligners to gently move your teeth into position.
With Invisalign’s discreet teeth straightening, fewer checkups are needed, saving you time and money.
Mannamead Cosmetic Dental Centre has been an Invisalign Provider in Plymouth since 2006.
Composite Bonding
Advances in modern dentistry mean that if you damage or discolour your tooth, it isn’t always necessary to have the tooth replaced.
Composite Bonding is a popular non-invasive cosmetic procedure used to fix minor teeth defects.
We use high-grade aesthetic resin to repair chipped teeth, close gaps, or reshape uneven edges, and the procedure can often be completed in a single appointment, without injections or drilling.
Dentures
Our bespoke Cosmetic Dentures are not just “false teeth”.
We offer high-grade Acrylic, Chrome Cobalt and Implant-Retained Dentures that are natural-looking, secure, comfortable, and gender-specific.
We give you total control over your appearance while working closely with the shape of your mouth, gums and facial structure.
Smile Makeovers
Bespoke Smile Makeovers are a series of dental treatments that enable you to achieve a perfect smile, whether you’re looking for subtle enhancements or a full-mouth reconstruction.
We can create plaster and wax models and digital scans of your mouth to help you design your new smile and show you a preview of how you’ll look.
Teeth Whitening
Brighten your appearance using powerful prescription-strength Teeth Whitening treatments.
Only dentists can legally sell products that can chemically change the colour of your teeth permanently.
Would you like natural-looking, whiter teeth or a brighter Hollywood- and Instagram-style smile? Your teeth can be whitened to the precise shade you desire.
We can provide you with at-home teeth whitening kits or single-session Philips Zoom laser teeth whitening.
Single-Visit Veneers and Crowns
We can design, manufacture, and fit high-quality ceramic Veneers and Crowns in a single appointment.
Our CEREC® technology is the latest in advanced dentistry.
Watch as we design your new tooth on-screen right in front of you. Your bespoke Crown or Veneer is then crafted in our clinic while you wait.
This is the future of dentistry. Faster, more comfortable, and incredibly precise.
Private Dentist in Plymouth
We also offer preventative dental care for adults and children, including regular check-ups for the whole family.
Emergency Dentist
If you’re suffering from a persistent toothache or have a broken tooth, our team at Mannamead Cosmetic Dental Centre offers immediate pain relief with same-day Emergency Dental Treatment in Plymouth.
Open to non-registered patients (No referral needed).
With our advanced CEREC porcelain milling machine, we can create and fit you with new permanent crowns and veneers in less than an hour.
Dental Hygienist
As well as cleaning, our Dental Hygienist can also remove stains from your teeth, brightening your smile.
We recommend visiting our hygienist at least twice a year for a check-up, scale and polish.
Can I see the Hygienist without seeing the Dentist?
Sure, you can. Direct Access appointments are available (No referral needed). Open to non-registered patients.
Dental Sedation
We offer a gentle dental care approach, taking the time to listen to your fears and moving at a pace that suits you.
We have a special interest in caring for nervous patients, and provide full Dental Sedation services if you’re nervous about visiting the dentist.
These safe and effective options put you in a deeply relaxed, dream-like state, meaning you can undergo complex cosmetic procedures without stress or anxiety.
Cosmetic Dentistry FAQ
How much does a Cosmetic Dentist cost in Plymouth?
All new patients will be asked to book a 1-hour comprehensive examination appointment at a cost of £150.
This exam will include your teeth and gum health, structural integrity, bite function, cosmetic aspects, and any X-rays needed.
For treatments, we offer a range of different options depending on your budget, as well as finance options, including 0% interest–free.
How much does a Private Dentist cost in Plymouth?
A regular checkup is £70 (£35 for under 18’s).
We also offer same-day appointments for all dental emergencies.
And if you want to see the Hygienist, you can book an appointment using Direct Access (No need to see the dentist first!).
Is Cosmetic Dentistry painful?
Modern materials allow us to preserve more of your natural tooth structure than we could previously, so your treatments aren’t as invasive.
Combined with the latest powerful dental anaesthetics, which start working almost instantly and wear off not long after your treatment has finished, going to the dentist today is a very different experience compared to even a few years ago.
How can I fix a chipped front tooth?
It all depends on the amount of damage and your budget.
Composite Bonding is a “Quick fix”; Porcelain Veneers are a “Premium fix”; and if a tooth is severely damaged, a Porcelain Crown is a “Structural fix”.
What’s the difference between Composite Bonding and Porcelain Veneers?
Composite Bonding involves adding a resin to the tooth to reshape it. Your natural tooth remains intact, and the process is reversible. Composite Veneers last around 5 years.
Porcelain Veneers are thin ceramic covers bonded over the front of your tooth. Ceramic Veneers last 10-15 years and are more stain-resistant than bonding.
How long will my Cosmetic Dental results last?
A lot will depend on you and the treatments you have. Cleaning your teeth properly and seeing the Hygienist regularly can help extend the time between treatments.
• Porcelain Crowns and Veneers can last between 10 – 20 years.
• Implants will last your lifetime. The Crowns on top will need replacing as above.
• Teeth Whitening can last between 6 months and three years or more, depending on your diet.
• Invisalign teeth straightening will last your lifetime if you wear your retainers as directed.
