Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are custom-made shells crafted from high-quality ceramic placed on your teeth’ front surface. They can effectively address various dental imperfections and greatly enhance your smile. These durable cosmetic dental solutions can provide long-lasting results, significantly improving the appearance of your teeth and boosting your self-assurance. With proper maintenance, porcelain veneers can serve you for many years, making them a valuable investment in your smile.
Composite Bonding
Dental bonding is a versatile cosmetic treatment that enhances your smile—using a tooth-coloured composite resin to fix chips, cracks, gaps, or tooth discoloration. A dentist applies and shapes the material to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, creating a beautiful and long-lasting restoration. With regular care, dental bonding can provide lasting results, making it an excellent option for smile enhancement.
Crowns and Bridges
Crowns and bridges are popular dental treatments that can enhance the strength, function, and appearance of teeth that are damaged or missing. Crowns act as protective caps, restoring weakened or damaged teeth’ shape, size, and strength. On the other hand, bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth to adjacent teeth with the support of crowns.
Bone Grafting
A dental bone graft is a procedure used to strengthen the jawbone by adding or augmenting bone. It is typically necessary when bone loss occurs due to gum disease, trauma, or tooth loss. These grafts are commonly done before dental implants to create a sturdy foundation for the implant to fuse with the surrounding bone. Additionally, they can be beneficial when bone loss affects neighbouring teeth, causing them to loosen or shift. During the procedure, bone graft material is placed where bone loss has occurred, prompting the body to generate new bone growth. This helps restore the jaw’s structure and function while preventing future dental complications.
Gum Contouring
Gum contouring, also referred to as gum reshaping or gum lifting, is a cosmetic dental treatment that enhances the aesthetics of the gum line. It is commonly performed to address a “gummy” smile, characterized by excessive gum tissue visibility during smiling.
In this procedure, a dentist or periodontist employs a laser or scalpel to eliminate excess gum tissue and sculpt the gum line, resulting in a more harmonious and visually appealing appearance. Occasionally, a minor bone adjustment may be necessary to refine the gum shape further.
