Aesthetic dentistry
What is the meaning of cosmetic dentistry?
Aesthetic dentistry includes all dental procedures that improve the appearance of the teeth, their aesthetics, and facial harmony, meaning treatments that enhance the beauty of our smile. Modern dentistry follows three main principles when creating dental restorations:
- Aesthetics, appearance;
- Proper occlusion, biting, function(jaw joint issues solutions);
- Fonation, voicing
Over time, these three aspects have not been emphasized equally, resulting in uneven development. However, today, all three criteria must be considered in every dental treatment. Naturally, dental aesthetics and aesthetic dentistry, which focuses on this area, are of particular importance, as they produce immediately noticeable results.
How can the different areas of cosmetic dentistry help you?
Cosmetic dentistry helps you achieve more beautiful teeth and a more attractive smile. Visually striking results are achieved through the use of specialized aesthetic treatments, cosmetic procedures, and the application of suitable dental materials and techniques, combined with the continuously developed theoretical knowledge and decades of international experience of our aesthetic specialists.
The goal of cosmetic dentistry is to give you the most pleasant and appealing appearance possible. This is not just about making your teeth more beautiful, but rather a comprehensive approach in which your dentist performs restorations and corrections that closely resemble natural teeth, while also considering anatomical functions.
In this approach, we consciously design the key elements of cosmetic dentistry:
- the shape of the face
- the position of the jaw joints
- the shape and form of the teeth
- the alignment of the teeth
- the color and shades of the teeth
- the proportions and symmetry
- the contour of the gum line and smile line
- the healthy sound production
If you are not completely satisfied with the appearance of your teeth, you do not have to live with it. At Helvetic Clinics, among the aesthetic dentistry services, you can choose from solutions that will bring about a striking transformation in the appearance of your teeth and smile.
The exact aesthetic dental treatment that will yield the most optimal results in your case can only be determined during a personal dental consultation, as we need precise information to create the ideal treatment plan:
- your ideas regarding the ideal aesthetic solution
- the current condition of your teeth
- the shape of your face
- the contact of your teeth
Cosmetic dental consultation at Helvetic Clinics
If you have decided that you want beautiful teeth, you can start the journey towards achieving them in five simple steps during a personal consultation, which takes place as follows at our clinic:
You schedule an appointment for a cosmetic dental consultation (053 930 1323) and then visit our clinic.
During the consultation, your dentist will examine you (using gentle digital diagnostic tools and dental X-rays if necessary) and discuss your ideas for the ideal aesthetic solution in detail.
The discussion, examination, and digital diagnostic results will be summarized, and your dentist will create the ideal treatment plan, providing a detailed written estimate with a warranty.
If you are satisfied with the estimate, during the next treatment session, your dentist will prepare your teeth for the aesthetic restoration, take impressions, and send them to the in-house dental laboratory, which will create your aesthetic dental prosthesis.
During the next treatment session, your dentist will try in the carefully planned and technologically advanced dental restoration. If everything is found to be in order from an anatomical, phonetic, and aesthetic perspective, the restoration will be permanently fixed.
From this moment on, you can start enjoying all the benefits of your new smile and receive admiring glances.

Smile-enhancing cosmetic dental treatments
There are several possible solutions to a cosmetic dental problem, as the types of dental restorations are diverse. We will provide you with detailed information about the ideal solutions from both anatomical and aesthetic perspectives, but the final decision is always yours. Among these solutions, you can choose from the following at our Budapest clinic:
Aesthetic composite filling: for small cavities or broken teeth – their color, translucency, hardness, and anatomical shape allow them to seamlessly restore the tooth structure lost due to decay, making them virtually undetectable.
Ceramic inlay: for larger cavities – it provides a functionally and aesthetically similar result to a composite filling, but differs in the method of construction and material used: it is made from pressed ceramic by the in-house dental laboratory using cutting-edge technology.
Cosmetic dentistry with IPS e.max® porcelain veneers and ceramic restorations: for aesthetic correction of the labial surface of the teeth – if you are not satisfied with the shape, color, or want to achieve a more uniform and harmonious effect, thin porcelain veneers (laminates) can be made and bonded to your teeth. Moreover, this procedure allows for a significant aesthetic change with minimal loss of tooth structure.
Direct veneer: for the restoration of damaged or aesthetically unappealing teeth – your dentist builds the tooth up layer by layer, sometimes using dozens of layers, to achieve the desired aesthetic result – this process is also somewhat of an art.
Zirconia dental crown, dental bridge: for large cavities, tooth damage, root canal treatment, or tooth loss – a lifelike dental restoration that closely resembles your natural teeth, made by a dental laboratory using high-precision computer-aided design and fabrication (digital dentistry).
Aesthetic dentistry pricing
Aesthetic dentistry prices can be categorized based on various factors. The cost is influenced by the material, type, size of the dental restoration, and the technology required for its creation. A significant factor in determining cosmetic dentistry prices is whether a dental laboratory is needed for the production of the restoration. The prices for individual aesthetic dental restorations can be found at the bottom of the page or on the dental prices page.
To make a good decision, you need information, which you will receive from experts at our clinic.
