Tooth whitening

Teeth are stained by the foods and drinks we consume. Smoking further stains teeth and the natural bright, white shade becomes darkened. Tooth whitening is a successful and simple method of lightening the colour of your teeth. The degree of whiteness achieved will vary from patient to patient and with the technique chosen.

Zoom tooth whitening allows rapid whitening in the practice. Within 1 hour power whitening can whiten teeth by up to several shades, brightening your teeth dramatically to its natural shade. Your lips and gums are covered and a gel is applied to your teeth. A special light is positioned over your teeth to activate the gel, which gently penetrates your teeth, breaking up stains and discolouration. Giving whiter, brighter teeth in less than an hour!

Dental implants

Dental implants offer a permanent solution for your missing teeth. A dental implant is essentially a substitute for a natural root.  This implant can be used to support bridges, single crowns and those extremely troublesome unstable lower dentures.  Depending on your needs it may even be possible to completely dispose of dentures.

There are occasions now when it is possible to remove a tooth or root and replace it immediately with an implant.  This reduces the number of visits required to place implants and therefore cost.

Veneers

If your front teeth are stained, chipped, or malaligned, veneers will give you a good life-like appearance with minimum tooth adjustment.

A veneer is a facing on the front of your teeth usually your top teeth, it is just like a false finger nail.

Veneers are made out of porcelain and are used mainly for aesthetic reasons.

Veneers make teeth look natural and healthy, and because they are very thin and are held in place by a special strong bond very little preparation of the tooth is needed.

Porcelain veneers can improve the colour, shape and position of teeth.

A precise shade of porcelain can be chosen to give the right colour to improve a single discoloured or stained tooth or to lighten front teeth generally.

Veneers can also be used to close small gaps, when orthodontics (braces) are not suitable.

If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.
