Smile Enhancement
|
|
|
Many of us would wish to enhance
our smile, would like a more pleasing, whiter smile.
We have available some of the latest technology to whiten
teeth, using Enlighten tm technology, a whiter smile can be
produced in less than an hour.
Sometimes bleaching alone is not enough to produce the desired
result. Another way that we can enhance your smile is by porcelain
veneering. The technique is not invasive and often preparation
is completed without the need for a local anaesthetic.
The effects can be dramatic.

Smile enhancement at its simplest consist of what primarily
in America is known as ‘bonding’. Put
simply, this is the use of aesthetic adhesive materials
at chairside in order to improve aesthetics. Here

One of the key elements
of any changes to a smile is for us to be able to predict
the possible outcome and any limitations that exist, and
for the patient to be able to appreciate what is possible,
and what is not. Often this means
that we make a mock-up in the mouth of what can be done. This
is something that helps us plan what we need to do, and
crucially enables the patient to appreciate what the result
is likely to look like. Communication is the key.
Restorative
smile enhancement can provide ‘immediate
orthodontics’, producing a whiter, straighter smile
without having to wait 1-2 years for orthodontic wires
to produce a result.
