White Fillings

White fillings made of composite resin are a safe and strong alternative to Amalgam fillings that contain mercury. They help restore an attractive smile and are matched closely in colour to your own teeth to look as natural as possible.

These fillings are a great replacement for chipped or stained fillings and are cosmetically hard to detect.

Some advantages of white fillings include requiring a smaller preparation area, so you lose less of the tooth, and that you can chew on the filling immediately, as the composite resin is hard as soon as the procedure is finished. There is no mercury in the filling material, just acrylic and glass.

Get an even more dazzling smile with tooth jewellery. A tooth jewel is made of crystal glass, mounted on a thin aluminium foil glued to your tooth with a strong dental glue.

The painless procedure doesn’t involve any drilling or other invasive treatment. The gem stays there sparkling for as long as you like, so you can enhance your smile for many years. When you decide to make a change, there is no mark left of your tooth and your dentist will simply polish it off for you.

Teeth Bleaching

Teeth can easily discolour, due to long-term habits like smoking or forgetting to regularly brush. A teeth bleaching product chemically whitens the teeth to their natural colour.

The active ingredient in tooth whitening products is usually hydrogen peroxide, a strong oxidising agent which interacts with the dark-colour molecules in tooth enamel and dentine, reducing both their size and colour. Book a consultation to discuss teeth bleaching to brighten your smile.

Porcelain Veneers

Veneers can help create a beautiful smile, changing broken, stained or chipped teeth to look just like your existing teeth. They are also used to improve the look of teeth that have large gaps between them and to straighten out crooked teeth.

Thin shells of porcelain or composite resin, veneers are custom-made and bonded onto the front of your tooth. Because they are so thin, veneers are not suitable for all teeth, so talk with your dentist. For heavily filled or discoloured teeth, for example, crowns may be a better choice.

Teeth Whitening

People are increasingly seeking tooth-whitening treatments to improve their appearance and get a bright white smile. The tooth whitening process lightens stains on the outer enamel and inner dentin layer of your teeth, giving them a whiter and fresher appearance.

You may need to lighten teeth to blend in if you are getting new crowns or veneers. Your dentist will identify the specific cause of your tooth discolouration before advising on which method or technique will suit you best.
