Your wedding day is a milestone and your smile will be a prominent feature of countless photos and lifelong memories. If you are preparing for your wedding, exploring cosmetic dental treatment may help address concerns such as staining, chipped teeth, gaps, malalignment, or missing teeth. Treating these dental conditions will improve your smile and make you feel more confident.
Cosmetic dental treatment options
There are several treatment options that can improve your smile prior to your wedding. The appropriate treatment options will depend on your individual needs and the results you are looking to achieve.
Invisalign Orthodontics to straighten your teeth
If you are considering straightening your teeth before your wedding, Invisalign treatment uses a series of custom and virtually invisible aligners as opposed to metal braces. Invisalign Orthodontics may help improve the alignment of your teeth while allowing you to maintain a natural-looking smile throughout treatment.
Depending on your individual needs and treatment goals, some cases may be completed in approximately 5–10 months. Learn more about Invisalign treatment.
Teeth whitening options to brighten your smile
Teeth whitening is one of the simplest ways to whiten and brighten your smile before your wedding. There are two types of teeth whitening options: in-office laser teeth whitening and custom teeth whitening at home kits.
Teeth whitening at home: Custom take-home whitening trays allow you to gradually whiten your teeth over several weeks and from the comfort and convenience of home. You may experience little-to-no sensitivity to your teeth during the process. Learn more about teeth whitening at home.
Laser teeth whitening: Laser teeth whitening is an in-office treatment designed to brighten your smile efficiently under professional supervision. It is often completed in an hour and you may experience some short-term sensitivity. Learn more about teeth whitening.
These options can safely and effectively whiten many types of tooth discolouration and help you achieve a noticeably brighter smile. Your dentist can recommend the most appropriate option based on your teeth, oral health, and desired results.

Tooth-coloured restorations to improve appearance
Older silver fillings are noticeable and affect the overall appearance of your smile. When appropriate, replacing them with tooth-coloured composite fillings or porcelain restorations can provide a more natural-looking result.
This type of treatment can improve the appearance of your teeth while also restoring their strength and function.
Dental bonding to fix minor imperfections
Dental bonding can be an effective cosmetic dental treatment for minor imperfections. It can be used to repair worn, chipped, or broken teeth, close small spaces, and improve the shape and contour.
Since bonding is typically less invasive than some other cosmetic procedures, it may be an option for patients looking for a conservative, less costly and efficient way to enhance their smile.
Replace missing teeth
Missing teeth compromises the appearance of your smile as well as your ability to function comfortably and speak confidently. Your dentist can offer several tooth replacement options, including dental implants, dental bridges, and cosmetic dentures without clasps.
Dental implants: Dental implants are permanent tooth replacements that use a titanium implant to support a porcelain crown that restores function and appearance, similar to a natural tooth. Learn more about dental implants.
Dental bridge: A porcelain dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by connecting neighbouring teeth or dental implants to support a custom-made replacement tooth. Learn more about dental bridges.
Dentures: Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace single or multiple missing teeth and it can restore the appearance and function of your smile. Learn more about dentures.
Your dentist can assess your oral health and discuss which option is best suited to your needs and long-term goals.
