Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you, and feeling confident in it can make all the difference. Whether you want to make a small change to your natural smile or undergo a complete transformation, Hertfordshire Dental Group offers a wide range of cosmetic dentistry treatments to help you achieve your dream smile.
From composite bonding to fix minor imperfections, to porcelain veneers for a flawless finish, and professional teeth whitening for a brighter confident smile, we’re here to help. With the latest techniques, a patient-focused approach and dentists with a special interest in cosmetic dentistry, every treatment is tailored to your exact needs - so you can smile confidently every day.
What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and overall smile. Unlike general dentistry, which prioritises preventative care (oral health and function), cosmetic treatments are designed to enhance the aesthetics of your smile - that could be whitening discoloured teeth, reshaping uneven edges, or correcting misalignment.
At Hertfordshire Dental Group, we offer a comprehensive range of cosmetic dentistry treatments for patients in Hertford, Ware, and surrounding areas. If you’re considering subtle enhancements or a complete smile makeover, our team is here to help and offer advice before helping you choose the most appropriate treatment to match your requirements and budget.
Cosmetic Dental Treatments Begin with a Consultation & Full Smile Assessment
A consultation and comprehensive smile assessment are essential first steps in any cosmetic dental treatment. The consultation ensures that your cosmetic dental treatment is safe, effective, and tailored to your individual needs - giving you the best possible smile transformation.
Assessing Your Oral Health - A thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and bite ensures you are a suitable candidate for treatment. Any underlying issues such as tooth decay and gum disease can be identified and addressed beforehand to ensure great results.
Understanding Your Goals & Expectations - Every smile is unique, and the consultation allows you to discuss your concerns and desired outcome.
Custom Treatment Planning - A personalised treatment plan is created, which may include veneers, teeth whitening, composite bonding or orthodontics. Digital scans, X-rays, or smile previews may be used to show potential results. This thorough planning process ensures the best outcomes.
Cost & Timeline Discussion - The consultation outlines treatment costs, timelines, and financing options. You’ll understand the process, maintenance, and expected longevity of results.
Avoiding Unnecessary or Ineffective Treatments - A thorough smile assessment prevents wasted time and money on treatments that may not be suitable for you.

Our Most Popular Cosmetic Dental Treatments
Professional Teeth Whitening
Over time, teeth can become stained by food, drinks, and smoking, dulling their natural brightness. At Hertfordshire Dental Group, we offer two professional-grade teeth whitening systems from the leading brands to safely whiten your smile; Enlighten Whitening and Boutique Whitening.
Porcelain Veneers
If you have chipped, broken, misaligned or worn-down teeth, porcelain veneers can give you a bright, beautifully uniform smile. Whether applied to a single tooth or multiple teeth, veneers create a natural, symmetrical appearance with minimally invasive tooth preparation.
The veneers are thin, custom-made porcelain shells securely bonded to your teeth to enhance their shape, colour and alignment. Porcelain is the preferred material because it is:
✔️ Stronger and more durable than other materials
✔️ Resistant to stains from food, drinks and smoking
✔️ Looks like natural enamel, creating a lifelike appearance
Composite Bonding
Composite bonding is a minimally invasive, quick, and painless procedure that can often be completed in a single appointment. Often called “cosmetic bonding” or “tooth bonding”, this popular treatment is ideal for repairing small chips, cracks, discolouration or enhancing the shape and size of teeth - instantly improving your smile.
A tooth-coloured composite resin is carefully bonded, sculpted, and polished to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Unlike veneers, no tooth enamel is removed, making it a gentle yet effective solution for patients with good dental health. This same-day procedure is a great option for those looking to enhance their smile without extensive dental work. Results typically last 3-5 years, though bonded teeth may be more prone to staining or chipping compared to veneers. Your dentist will advise on the best care and whether alternative treatments may suit you better.
