Your dentist CASA DENTALIS offers you a wide range of options related to aesthetic dentistry.
However, this is not just about creating brilliant white uniform bits, but rather enhancing and reviving the beauty of your natural smile.
In the following, we would like to give you a brief overview of the topics of implantology, inlays, veneers and bleaching.
All-ceramics (aesthetic dentistry) are implants, bridges, crowns or inlays that are made exclusively from high-quality ceramics (instead of metal) on site at your dentists CASA DENTALIS Lichterfelde, Wilmersdorf or Steglitz-Zehlendorf.
The all-ceramic dentures used at CASA DENTALIS offer our patients numerous advantages, such as:
- Natural optics through light transmission
- Biocompatibility, no allergic or toxic reactions
- Longevity and strength of ceramics
- Color stability, no discoloration
- Low thermal conductivity and therefore protection of the tooth nerve
The costs depend on the individual effort and are therefore recalculated each time by the CASA DENTALIS team on a patient-related basis. As a rule, health insurance companies do not fully cover the costs of aesthetic dentistry. If this is the case, please do not hesitate to contact your dentist at any time, because we at CASA DENTALIS are happy to meet our patients with individually tailored options for installment payment for aesthetic dentistry. Our dentists believe that your dental health doesn’t have to be tied to your wallet. Thanks to our customer-friendly CASA DENTALIS financing options, you can also opt for the dentures of your wishes.
What are inlays?
Inlay (also: inlay filling) refers to a precisely fitting filling made of gold or ceramic that is made in the dental laboratory and which is placed on the tooth (aesthetic dentistry). Your dentist mostly uses inlays for tooth restorations after tooth decay and aesthetic dentistry.
Inlays differ from conventional tooth fillings in that they are not placed in the mouth by your dentist and harden there. Instead, they are made outside (in the dental laboratory of CASA DENTALIS) and then glued onto the tooth.
Inlays vs. plastic filling: What is the difference?
They also offer the advantage of a longer retention time (up to 15 years) compared to conventional plastic or amalgam fillings. Thus, a longer preservation of the tooth is possible.
How much does an inlay cost?
In aesthetic dentistry, the costs are not borne by health insurance companies.
A ceramic inlay is usually more expensive than a gold filling due to the higher effort. But here, too, our CASA DENTALIS dental practices in Berlin Lichterfelde, Wilmersdorf or Steglitz-Zehlendorf offer the option of payment by installments for aesthetic dentistry to enable all our patients to have a nice smile.
If you have any questions, contact your team for aesthetic dentistry from CASA DENTALIS at any time, we would be happy to advise you in one of our dental practices in Berlin-Lichterfelde, at Schlachtensee or at Roseneck
How is an inlay applied at CASA DENTALIS?
First, your dentist must determine whether an inlay is the optimal solution in your situation. If this is not the case, the CASA DENTALIS team from Berlin will be happy to advise you on alternatives, e.g. a crown.
Then, together with your dentist at CASA DENTALIS, you will decide on thecomposition of the filling. Here, optics and durability are weighed against each other, because gold inlays are more durable, while ceramic inlays are not visible.
In order to produce a precisely fitting inlay, your dentist at CASA DENTALIS takes impressions of the jaw before and after the removal of the caries and / or old filling.
If you decide on a ceramic inlay, depending on the shade of your, the matching shade of the filling will be determined, because at CASA DENTALIS we put great importance to the authencity of our results. The hole is then temporarily closed.
In the following days, your dental technician from CASA DENTALIS will produce the individual inlay. At the second appointment in one of our Berlin dental practices in Lichterfelde, Wilmersdorf or Steglitz-Zehlendorf, this will be used – and if necessary adjusted again by your dentist.

Veneers (also: veneers) are made of wafer-thin special ceramics and serve to conceal aesthetic defects. They are applied by your dentist at CASA DENTALIS in Berlin for aesthetic dentistry with a dental adhesive in the anterior region of the teeth.
Veneers are used in various cases at CASA DENTALIS. For example:
– Discoloration of the tooth – Minor tooth shape correction – Minor tooth position correction – Damaged corners – Accidental damage – Tooth gaps – The protection of the tooth nerve from external stimuliArrange your free consultation for veneers with us right now
At our CASA DENTALIS practice, professional teeth cleaning can easily remove discoloration of teeth that can be attributed to coffee, tea, red wine or tobacco.
On the other hand, discoloration due to medication, accidents, root canal treatment, or due to aging can only be treated by a bleaching agent that must be applied inside the tooth by your dentist.
With correct use of aesthetic dentistry, this method is completely harmless to the teeth.
The high-quality veneers from CASA DENTALIS are to impress with numerous advantages:
- Natural transparency of the ceramic material enables individual color adjustment
- High biocompatibility, therefore no health risks
- Difficult collection of deposits on or under the veneer, thus protection against caries and periodontitis
- Longevity of shells of 10 years
You can contact us any time for aesthetic dentistry advice on veneers at one of our Berlin dental practices in Lichterfelde, Wilmersdorf or Steglitz-Zehlendorf, we look forward to hearing from you!
Misaligned teeth and crooked teeth can easily be corrected with veneers. However, it is important that there is no misalignment that leads to a malocclusion. Otherwise, you run the risk of the veneers breaking off or chipping. Of course, a malocclusion can be corrected first and then veneers can be applied later.
It is essential that you first come to us for a detailed examination, because corrective measures are also very important from a health point of view.
The wafer-thin shells are able to largely cover an excessively large gap between two teeth. Compared to the regular crown, this has great advantages because a veneer does not demand a large part of the tooth substance and the tooth only needs to be prepared slightly. In the case of a gap caused by a missing tooth, the alternative options of an implant or a dental bridge remain. We advise you individually.
Teeth whitening with hydrogen peroxide (H2o2) is an option for restoring the natural whiteness of teeth, which over the years has been replaced by a distinct yellow tone in most people due to heavy consumption of coffee, tea or cigarettes, for example. Unfortunately, professional teeth cleaning does not completely remove this discolouration.
- healthy tooth structure
- Are inlays or crowns fitted that could take on an unexpected shade when bleached?
- Is a denture already in place?
- Is there a dead tooth with a dead root that is already turning grey?
- Is the dentition sensitive or does the patient have Angst before a tooth whitening?
- Are you a smoker or are coffee, tea and wine consumed regularly?
To avoid damage, our experienced dentists for aesthetic dentistry in Berlin at CASA DENTALIS recommend that you have the whitening procedure done at one of our Berlin dental practices.
At CASA DENTALIS, we first examine the teeth to clarify whether they are at all suitable for a whitening procedure. This is because only healthy teeth may be chemically bleached. Otherwise, there is a risk of inflammation due to the bleaching agent penetrating the tooth (e.g. through fine cracks or caries).
Furthermore, we would like to inform you that over-the-counter bleaching agents used in aesthetic dentistry are less effective due to their low concentration and can even be harmful due to incorrect concentrations.
CASA DENTALIS offers 3 different bleaching methods:
Home bleaching: The patient receives a custom-fit plastic tray in the dental practice, into which the bleaching gel is applied, and this is then placed on their teeth at home. With this aesthetic dentistry method, it can take up to two weeks before results are visible.
Office bleaching: Your dentist in Berlin applies the high-dose whitening agent directly to the teeth. With this method, the process must be repeated up to three times, but involves less effort for the patient than home bleaching.
Power bleaching: Power bleaching is designed like office bleaching. In addition, your dentist in Berlin uses high-energy light (e.g. UV light) to accelerate the bleaching process. The whitening can be completed in just one session at one of the CASA DENTALIS dental practices.
For all aesthetic dentistry methods, we use hydrogen peroxide in our practices in Berlin Lichterfelde, Wilmersdorf or Steglitz-Zehlendorf. This releases active oxygen, which breaks down colour particles within the tooth and thus decolours it.
