Your initial oral examination includes a visual examination and charting. For proper diagnosis and treatment plan we will also take X-Rays, which includes Panoramic X-Ray that shows all teeth inside the mouth as well as Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ). These steps will help us provide our patients with ideal treatments they need.
Cosmetic Dentistry
While not every person is born with a perfect teeth, thanks to developments in the field of cosmetic dentistry by which people can change their teeth to get the smile they love.
Veneers are very important as a cosmetic tool. Chipped, broken, discoloured teeth may be repaired or have their appearance corrected using a Porcelain or Zirconia Veneers. A dental veneer can be applied onto the surface of a tooth. A dentist may use single veneer or multiple to create a "Hollywood" type of smile. The result is a restoration that blends invisibly with the remainder of the surrounding tooth structure and the rest of your natural teeth to create a healthy, bright smile.
Teeth whitening is perhaps the most commonly requested cosmetic dentistry procedure. Teeth are often stained from smoking, food, drink (coffee, tea or alcohol beverages) or poor oral hygiene. Teeth whitening can significantly enhance the appearance of your smile. This procedure consists of few easy steps that are easy to follow and bring satisfying results. When our dentists examine you, they can give you more details about this procedure.
When a tooth is heavily decayed, it is more likely to fracture and loose considerable tooth substance. Here we use crowns to contain the remaining structure of the tooth which cannot be restored with a simple filling.
Crowns may be made from several different materials, porcelain and gold being the most common types.
Bridge allows the dentist to replace lost tooth or teeth by preparing and taking support from the natural teeth on sides of the space to be restored. This procedure is recommended specially if the supporting natural teeth also need to be restored.
Crowns and bridges can be made to appear very natural through the use of porcelain materials. The new technology of Zirconium material can be the best choice for the front teeth to give the smile you looking for.
Also known as indirect fillings. Inlays and Onlays are made from porcelain materials which make it a long-lasting yet cosmetic way to provide a “filling” to teeth with tooth decay or similar structural damage. Whereas dental fillings are molded into place during a dental visit, inlays and onlays are created in a dental laboratory before being fitted and cemented into place by your dentist.
Cosmetic fillings (Also called composite) are a tooth-colour alternative to traditional metal "amalgam" fillings, and it is our best material to restore and fill areas of decay in a tooth. Our dentists remove the decay from the tooth and fill the cavity with this hard durable cosmetic material to retain the remaining structure of the tooth. It matches the same shape, colour and shade of the tooth so nobody can notice that you have it in your tooth.
They are made of a composite resin, and they look just like natural teeth.
Cosmetic fillings bond very tightly to your existing teeth and work extremely well for chipped and cracked teeth. There is obviously no danger of metal-sensitivity. If you want the very best for your smile, then you want to use materials that appear very natural and tooth-like. That is exactly what cosmetic fillings were designed for.
Silver fillings (Amalgam) fillings are much darker than natural tooth structure
and give the “metal-mouth” look. Amalgams can corrode and leak over time, potentially staining teeth and gums. Additionally, many are now concerned over the health consequences of mercury content in amalgams. Now, we can replace your old silver filling with a new cosmetic filling with no danger to the tooth.
