  "content": "Your smile is one of the first things people notice. At Core Dental Carrum Downs, our cosmetic dentistry services are designed to help you achieve the smile you have always wanted - whether that means brighter teeth, straighter edges, or a complete transformation.\n\n**Porcelain Veneers**\n\nPorcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells of custom-crafted ceramic bonded to the front surface of your teeth. They can correct:\n\n- Discolouration that whitening cannot resolve\n- Chipped or worn teeth\n- Mild crowding or gaps\n- Uneven tooth length or shape\n\nPorcelain veneers are crafted by our skilled ceramist team to precisely match the shape, size, and translucency of natural teeth. Two appointments are typically required. Porcelain veneers are highly durable, with a lifespan of 10 to 25 years, and resist staining far better than natural enamel.\n\nPorcelain veneers require some removal of tooth enamel and are considered a permanent treatment.\n\n**Composite Bonding - From $250 Per Tooth**\n\nComposite bonding is a more conservative and affordable cosmetic option. Your dentist applies and sculpts tooth-coloured composite resin directly onto your teeth to correct chips, close small gaps, adjust shape, and improve colour - often in a single appointment with minimal or no tooth preparation.\n\nComposite bonding starts from $250 per tooth at Core Dental Carrum Downs and is a popular choice for younger patients or those seeking a reversible cosmetic enhancement.\n\n**Composite Veneers**\n\nFor patients who want the effect of veneers without the cost or permanence of porcelain, composite veneers offer an excellent middle ground. Applied in a single appointment, they can dramatically improve the appearance of multiple teeth simultaneously.\n\n**Smile Makeovers**\n\nA smile makeover combines multiple cosmetic treatments - such as whitening, veneers, bonding, Invisalign, and crown replacement - into a comprehensive treatment plan designed around your unique goals. At Core Dental Carrum Downs, your dentist will assess your teeth, gums, bite, and facial aesthetics to develop a plan that delivers harmonious, natural-looking results.\n\n\n\nOur Carrum Downs practice, led by Dr Anna Lai - who holds a Fellowship in Restorative Dentistry (in progress) and completed a Mini Masters in Orthodontics - brings an advanced skill set to cosmetic dentistry. Our fully accessible ground-floor practice with dedicated parking makes cosmetic consultations convenient for all patients.\n\n\n\n**Dental Crowns and Bridges for Cosmetic Purposes**\n\nWhen teeth are significantly damaged or missing, dental crowns and bridges restore both function and aesthetics. Our porcelain crowns are colour-matched to your surrounding teeth and designed to blend seamlessly into your smile.\n\n**Invisalign to Complete Your Smile**\n\nCosmetic treatments achieve their best results when your teeth are well-aligned. Many patients combine Invisalign treatment with bonding, whitening, or veneers for a complete smile transformation. As an Invisalign Blue Diamond Provider, Core Dental Carrum Downs has the expertise to coordinate your orthodontic and cosmetic treatment as part of a single plan.\n\n**Flexible Payment Plans**\n\nCosmetic dentistry is an investment in your confidence. Payright interest-free payment plans allow you to spread the cost over up to 30 months with no interest. Fortnightly repayments make premium cosmetic treatment accessible.\n\nCore Dental Carrum Downs offers one of the most comprehensive cosmetic menus of any suburban practice in Melbourne's south-east - including porcelain veneers, composite bonding, whitening, Invisalign, and facial injectable treatments. Our fully accessible ground-floor location with eight on-site parking spaces means attending cosmetic consultations is stress-free, and our team can often schedule your aesthetic treatments alongside a routine check-up in the same visit.\n\n**Book Your Cosmetic Consultation**\n\nBook a consultation at Core Dental Carrum Downs to discuss your smile goals:\n\n- Phone: (03) 8373 1555\n- Call nationally: 13 13 16\n- Online: coredental.com.au\n- Email: carrumdowns@coredental.com.au\n\n**Visit Us**\n\nSuite 4, 335 Ballarto Rd, Carrum Downs VIC 3201\nGround-floor location; accessible from street level; near Carrum Downs Shopping Centre\n8 dedicated on-site car spaces\n\nOpen Monday to Friday 8:00 am - 6:00 pm and Saturday 8:00 am - 1:30 pm.
