Anna’s Smile Makeover Experience

Treatment to straighten twisted or over-lapping teeth

Porcelain Veneers

SmileFast Veneers

A fast and affordable way to transform your front teeth 

What treatments are traditionally included as part of a full smile makeover?

SmileFast

What is SmileFast?

SmileFast is the ground-breaking new development in Smile Design and the Provision of Smile Makeovers. The amazing new system brings together the three essential elements of modern cosmetic dentistry, which are orthodontics braces, ceramic and composite veneers.

SmileFast helps you to quickly visualise your planned new smile, understand the journey and then experience the smile-changing results. By cutting out most of the time-consuming preliminary stages for Dentists, SmileFast has simplified the process meaning you can reach the smile of your dreams at a price you can afford.

We start by taking the relevant photos and records. Then using the latest 3D-planning technology along with the unique SmileFast system, we design the perfect smile and outline possible treatment options.

The great thing about this system is that we can now place a custom-designed composite veneer smile makeover for the front 6 teeth in just one application. Meaning you walk away with the perfect smile in no time at all.

Veneers – porcelain or composite

What are Veneers?

A dental veneer is a shell, or layer of tooth-coloured porcelain or composite. It is placed over the front surface of your tooth to fix worn teeth, uneven tooth alignment or spacing, discolouration and chips or cracks. A crown is like a veneer, but covers the full circumference and biting surface of a tooth.

Teeth Straightening

Braces & Retainers

We use treatments that will perfect your teeth in just a matter of months! Our braces are so discreet, no one need know that you even have a brace in!

We offer 3 types of braces depending on your needs. We have tooth-coloured brackets and wires that fit on the front of your teeth. We have brackets and wires that fit behind your teeth, and we have clear plastic, removable aligners.

Teeth Whitening

In practice or at home

The technique involves taking impressions of your teeth and getting laboratory made, custom bleaching trays. Tooth whitening gel is then applied to the trays which are fitted to the teeth.

The trays hold the gel on the teeth and with time the teeth lighten. The more often you apply the gel the lighter the teeth will go. 

Cosmetic Bonding

What is it and why is it so popular?

Cosmetic bonding, often called resin bonding, is when a tooth-coloured resin is bonded to your teeth, then sculpted into the proper shape. The resin is a composite of liquid acrylic and tiny particles of glass. The composite resin forms a durable, stain-resistant surface that can be polished to mimic the texture of your natural teeth.

Composite bonding involves applying a tooth coloured composite resin material to your existing teeth. The resin is moulded by your dentist so that it creates a perfect match with your surrounding teeth. It is used across the world for whitening or masking discoloured teeth, improving cosmetic structure, filling dental gaps and repairing broken or fractured teeth. All in all, composite bonding is a perfect solution for solving minor dental imperfections.

Digital Smile Design (DSD)

Digital Smile Design (DSD) is a modern approach to cosmetic dentistry that uses advanced technology to design a customized, aesthetically pleasing smile for patients. It is a process that involves taking digital images and videos of the patient’s face, mouth, and teeth, and using specialized software to create a 3D model of the patient’s smile.

DSD allows dentists to analyze the patient’s facial and dental characteristics and create a virtual simulation of the final outcome, allowing the patient to see how their new smile will look before any treatment begins. This helps to ensure that the patient is satisfied with the end result and that the treatment plan is tailored to their specific needs and preferences.

The DSD process may include a variety of cosmetic dental treatments, such as teeth whitening, dental bonding, porcelain veneers, dental implants, and orthodontic treatment, among others. The goal of DSD is to create a natural-looking smile that complements the patient’s facial features and enhances their overall appearance and confidence.

DSD is becoming increasingly popular as patients seek more personalized, predictable, and effective cosmetic dental treatments. It allows dentists to provide a high level of care and precision, resulting in better outcomes and greater patient satisfaction.

I've been coming to Links Dental Practice for over three years now, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services.I'm often in to see the dentist Sam (who is excellent!), but I'd also like to give a shout-out to Moon, one of their dental hygienists (and her assistant Ellie). I've seen Moon for several appointments, and she is exceptional. As someone with sensitive teeth and gums, Moon is always incredibly attentive and I feel genuinely comfortable throughout our appointments.Overall, Links DP is a reliable and caring practise in the area, and if you need a hygienist, I highly recommend booking an appointment with Moon – you won't be disappointed! ☺️

I’ve had an excellent experience with Dr Jasmine and Links Dental Practice.Having recently moved to Edinburgh I hadn’t yet organised a dentist when I suffered a broken tooth. A friend recommended Links dental practice and they were able to see me very quickly.Dr Jasmine and Bethany were able to patch things up immediately, allowing me to enjoy Christmas. Dr Jasmine explained the treatment options and talked me through a treatment plan. This was reassuring for me as someone who suffers from dental anxiety. I found the team very patient, empathetic and caring. They had very high standards in delivering the treatment, taking time to achieve a perfect bite and regularly checking I was satisfied with the results. The tooth is now fully repaired (I didn’t think this would be possible) and has allowed me to enjoy meals again.The reception staff are always very organised and welcoming and the late opening times are very convenient.

I required root canal treatment and an extraction. I was treated promptly and both jobs were completed quickly, efficiently and painlessly by Sam Lockhart. Moreover, my three visits were, if not fun, at least enjoyable. I was kept informed at all stages and entertained by Sam’s humour. This is dentistry at its best.

I had Invisalign, whitening, and veneers done at Links Dental with Dr. Sam Lockhart, and it was an incredible experience. I had struggled with my teeth for such a long time, but in less than a year, everything was fixed! The transformation is truly amazing, and I can’t thank Dr. Sam enough for his perfectionism and attention to detail throughout the process.All treatments were carried out to a high standard, and I am absolutely happy with the results. I’ve also had routine treatments at Links Dental, which were relaxed and completely pain-free. The team does everything to ensure your comfort by offering options to reduce discomfort, like headphones with music to block out the sound of the drill—perfect for anyone who feels uneasy at the dentist.For the first time, I’m no longer stressed about dental visits! I highly recommend Links Dental, and especially Dr. Sam Lockhart, for anyone looking for top-quality dental care.

I’ve had a chipped tooth for a few years now and Dr. Sam asked me if I wanted to have this fixed up. It only took a short amount of time, no pain at all and I honestly can’t believe the difference it’s made to my smile! Brilliant!

My new dentist Jasmine wss friendly and welcoming.She took great trouble to check all my teeth (gently) and showed me them on a screen(fascinating) whilst explaining the work which needed to be done.Because I could clearly see my teeth..this all made sense to me.While lying back in the dentist's chair i also enjoyed watching a gorgeous travel film of Italy (no sound) which was v relaxing.I would highly recommend.

My experience with Dr. Sam has been outstanding. From my first visit, his warm welcome and the clinic’s calming atmosphere put me at ease. Dr. Sam is patient, thorough, and always takes the time to explain each step, which makes a real difference. His attention to detail and genuine care create a truly positive experience every time, and I always leave feeling satisfied and confident that I’m in expert hands. I’m still continuing my treatment with him, and I honestly couldn’t recommend him more to anyone seeking a skilled and compassionate dentist. He’s completely transformed my view of dental care, and I’m incredibly grateful!Tesnim 🙂

A crown popped out after a couple of days of tender niggling leaving a hole into the root. I was very fortunate to get an ‘unscheduled’ appointment the day after calling in about it, though not with my usual dentist as she was on annual leave.Dr/Mr Ross was so kind and gentle, probing in exactly the right spots with his instrument- I knew I was in the hands of an experienced expert. He took time to check every detail and make sure the reinserted crown was sitting just right, whilst explaining every step. I just felt he didn’t miss a thing, even though it was a simple enough dentistry job. I’ve had crowns reinserted before but this time was memorable.. excellent dentistry. Thankyou, Mr Ross!

I have been coming to Links Dental Practice for 32 years!!, since the beginning of the Practice, and today was my last check up with Mr Ross before his upcoming retirement. Edward Ross has looked after my family’s teeth exclusively and expertly all that time, and it’s a very welcoming environment to come to.Thank you for everything, happy retirement, and we’ll be continuing with our dental care at Links Dental Practice.Anita Cullinan

I have been a customer of Links Dental practice since the late eighties. During that time, I have been treated exceptionally well, with my teeth maintained in very good condition. I wish to thank Dr Ross for his professionalism and I also wish him a happy retirement, which I believe will be happening towards the end of the year.

All of the staff are always really friendly and professional. This morning I saw Moon, the Hygienist, very ably assisted by Bethany, the Dental technician. They worked together effortlessly, never bumping into each other and making the whole procedure pain free and comfortable. I never felt like I was drowning, my gums and tongue where never sucked into the aspirator, and my teeth feel great afterwards. I am really lucky to have such a talented team so close to my home.

Having just had a wisdom tooth removed I can honestly say the whole experience was most definitely a positive one. Mr. Ross took lots of time to explain the procedure knowing i was somewhat nervous. After a short period of time the offending tooth was removed completely painlessly. I am so impressed. I can only speak highly of Links Dental Practice and all of the friendly and helpful staff. I can thoroughly recommend them....Gerry Martin
