Cosmetic Dental Treatments

 

Here at White Smiles, as our name suggests, we know that appearances matter.

It’s why we put so much thought into the presentation of our practice, and we also know it’s why you are as concerned about how your teeth look as you are about your oral health.

That’s why we approach dental care in a unique manner – working with you to understand your individual requirements and providing friendly, expert advice and treatment. We aim to make every patient’s journey, from first enquiry to treatment completion, an amazing, life-changing experience.

White (composite) fillings

Traditional metal (amalgam) fillings are now out of fashion, as they are considered unsightly and many are concerned about the constant presence of metal, especially mercury, in the mouth. Instead, where appropriate, we offer natural tooth-coloured composite, or ‘white’, fillings that use the latest bonding technology in order to preserve more of your natural tooth.

White fillings are now our most popular option for treating small areas of tooth decay. The advantages of white fillings are the lack of metal in your mouth and their completely natural appearance. Composites are not only used for new dental repairs - your old amalgam fillings may also be covered or even removed and replaced with white fillings, depending on the advice of your dentist.

Veneers

Porcelain veneers are a quick and simple makeover solution for teeth that are stained, crooked or worn, chipped or damaged through an accident or decay. Veneers are durable, aesthetic and reliable. Veneers can also help fill in small gaps between teeth or enhance the appearance of existing crowns and bridges without the need for drilling.

A veneer is a thin shell, much like a false fingernail, custom-made to cover the front of a prepared tooth in order to restore or improve its appearance. Made of porcelain or composite materials, veneers are then colour-matched to the existing shade of your other teeth.

Ceramic crowns

Dental crowns are ceramic restorations placed over damaged teeth to improve their shape, size or function. Crowns are generally used to provide strength after a root canal treatment or to reinforce a heavily filled, decayed or broken tooth.

Traditionally, metal-based crowns were used to strengthen or rebuild teeth. However, many patients didn’t want large amounts of metal in their mouths, for health and aesthetic reasons. Today, porcelain and pressed ceramic crowns are a completely metal-free and attractive option. They are custom-crafted to be bespoke to you, matching the exact colour, texture and translucency of your natural teeth.

Bridges

Dental bridges offer a permanent solution for missing teeth, and will look and feel just like your natural teeth. Unlike dentures, bridges aren’t removable, so they provide your mouth with increased support and stability.

Fitting a bridge requires crowning teeth on one or both sides of the ‘missing teeth' and then fixing a series of natural-looking artificial teeth to them, therefore ‘bridging the gap'. Bridges can replace a single missing tooth or a whole section of teeth.

Because bridges are custom-made to fit your mouth and match your own teeth, they are barely noticeable. They can restore the natural contour of your mouth, as well as the correct biting relationship between upper and lower teeth. It’s also important to replace missing teeth in order to prevent stress and shifting of adjacent teeth.
