Dental crowns, or "caps," are versatile restorations that encase a damaged or weakened tooth. Whether a tooth is cracked, heavily decayed, or has undergone root canal therapy, a dental crown provides strength, protection, and a natural-looking appearance.
Dental bridges are an effective solution for replacing one or more missing teeth. A bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth, anchored by dental crowns on adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. This not only restores the appearance of your smile but also maintains proper dental function and prevents neighboring teeth from shifting.
Dentures are removable prosthetic devices that replace multiple missing teeth. Whether you need a full set of dentures to restore an entire arch or partial dentures to fill gaps in your smile, Our team can help to customise these appliances to provide comfort, stability and enhance appearance.
Teeth tend to stain or discolor due to lifestyle, diet, genetics and age. When teeth become dehydrated over time, they have the tendency to look more dull.Teeth whitening is one of the go-to treatments especially when there is a special occasion coming up. How whitening works: There are 2 types of chemical compounds that are responsible for whitening to work; Hydrogen Peroxide and Carbamide Peroxide.Teeth are essentially whitened as the active oxygen in these compounds are released during the whitening process to break up discolored molecules into simpler and lighter molecules. Dental sensitivity is common after whitening as the bleaching agent reaches the dentine which holds the bulk of the nerves in our teeth. There are 2 types of teeth whitening to consider:
This helps to achieve that white smile instantly, the process takes approximately 1 hour as the dentist carefully prep your teeth and gums prior to whitening. The effect is instant because the process is being sped up by the blue light which activates the compounds in the whitening gel to break up the discolored particles. Furthermore, the concentration of hydrogen or carbamide peroxide in whitening gels used in a dental setting is higher to aid in hastening the process.
Provided by dental clinics, but they do not usually come with the blue light, and the concentration of the whitening agents is lower. However, results may turn out to be similar even though the time taken to reach the stage is a little longer.
Dental Veneers Veneers are usually planned to restore the front teeth to address aesthetic issues. They are thin shells that are cemented over natural tooth structures to cover the existing flaws. They essentially help to change the color, size and shape of the existing teeth. Dental Veneers can be done in both ways, veneers can either be fabricated in a lab; which would come in a porcelain material or they can be done in the clinic itself with the dentist specially crafting them on the spot with composite resin material. It is important to note that once a tooth is prepped for a veneer, it is irreversible due to tooth structure removed during the prep to make room for veneers to be placed on top of it.
Here are some of the reasons why veneers are warranted:
From assessing the condition of your teeth to evaluating the health of your gums. We answer your questions even further upon examination in our clinic.
This is due to the bleaching agent penetrating to the deeper layers of the tooth where the nerves are holding up, when there is a stimulus such as cold or hot temperature or even during brushing or chewing, there will be a sharp discomfort (sensitivity). This usually resolves after a few days or up to a week.
It is not recommended to use such toothpaste as they usually contain abrasive particles that may scratch the smooth surfaces of the porcelain veneers resulting in these surfaces attracting more plaque.
Dental crowns usually could last up to 15 years or a lifetime, depending on the use of these prostheses.
Dental veneers can be durable, but that doesn't mean they are indestructible. Veneers might potentially break or fall off if you consume hard foods or grind your teeth frequently.
