Cosmetic Dental Procedures

Dental professionals are now able to treat patients with advanced dental problems such as discoloured teeth, tilted teeth, receding gums and so many other dental conditions using the latest cosmetic dentistry techniques.

There was a time when a patient's only viable option was to have dentures fitted that were inevitably painful and uncomfortable, requiring continuous refitting and remodelling over time. Today, your dental professional has many treatment options available to save your smile or provide you with a brand new on you will be proud of.

The most common cosmetic dental procedures are:

Teeth Whitening or bleaching – This procedure utilizes various novel approaches either in the dental office or at home under dental supervision.

Cosmetic Bonding – Is a technique using enamel composite on the exterior of one's teeth and shaping it correctly. It is then allowed to harden and the dentist will buff the new façade to meld with your natural teeth.

Restorative Procedures for various dental issues that will enhance your appearance and dental health

Bridges – This is when synthetic teeth are fused within two porcelain crown replacing the space where a tooth is missing. The technique is also referred to as a false bridge and utilized when there are lost teeth. These are permanent replacements and they can decrease the incidence of periodontal disease, improve speech in some patients and correct an individual's bite.

Full Or Partial Dentures - are an option for patient's usually when teeth are badly damaged. Dentures [or false teeth] are produced in a lab and used to replace natural teeth. They are supported by the adjacent soft and hard tissue within the oral space.

Porcelain Veneers – are porcelain laminates that are quite thin and customized for the patient. They are attached directly on the teeth with an adhesive bonding and they are quite useful to repair teeth gaps and conceal teeth discolouration.

Porcelain Crowns – Porcelain crowns conceal the entire visible exterior of the teeth, adding strength, durability and firmness to your bite. The dental professional makes an impression of the tooth/ teeth for the dental lab so they can produce a well fitted crown.

Porcelain Onlays / Inlays – These are produced using a resin composite, porcelain or even gold. The dental onlays or inlays are used as a means of restoring teeth that are damaged or decayed in the back of the mouth.
