Cosmetic dentistry improves how your teeth and smile look, using treatments such as whitening, tooth-coloured bonding, veneers and crowns. At GIA Clinics in Vijayawada, cosmetic treatment is planned by Dr Lalitya Dandamudi at both our Gunadala and Gurunanak Colony clinics, starting with a check that your teeth and gums are healthy.

Your first visit answers this properly, with an examination and, where needed, a scan, before you commit to anything.
We talk about what you would like to change, check your teeth and gums, and take photos.
Visit 1Dr Lalitya explains which treatments suit your teeth, what each involves, and the order to do them in.
Visit 1Any decay, gum problems or cleaning needs are handled before cosmetic work begins.
If neededWhitening, bonding, veneers or crowns are done over one or more visits, with shade and shape checked as we go.
Visits 2 to 3We check your bite and how the result looks, and explain how to keep it looking good.

It depends on your teeth and what you want to change. Dr Lalitya will suggest the least invasive option that can meet your goal.
Whitening and bonding remove little or no tooth. Veneers and crowns need some shaping, which we explain before you decide.
We match shade and shape to your face and neighbouring teeth, and aim for a result that looks like your own smile.
Mild issues can sometimes be masked with bonding or veneers. For more crowding, aligners or braces are usually the better first step.
