Transforming you smile...
Ask yourself this question: what’s your best feature?
Yes, everyone is unique. People come in all shapes and sizes, and sure enough, if you ask that question to a thousand different people, you’ll probably receive a thousand different answers. But there is one defining feature that unites us all: our smile.
Looking – and feeling – good doesn’t have to be about calorie-counting It doesn’t have to mean spending hours at the gym. And believe it or not, self-esteem can’t be packaged in a bottle or can. Simply put, there’s no diet, training regime, or product that’ll boost your confidence in the same way that a healthy and attractive smile will. Cosmetic dentistry can give yours the lift it’s been looking for.
Veneers are a very popular treatment in cosmetic dentistry today and are used for either aesthetic purposes or when front teeth are damaged, chipped or broken. A veneer is a custom fabricated shell of ceramic material that has the appearance and translucency natural teeth. Dental veneers are bonded over the front surface of a tooth to cover up worn down tooth enamel, slightly crooked teeth gaps between teeth and chips or cracked teeth. Veneers can be fabricated to any shape or colour enabling you to sit down with your dentist and design your smile just the way you want. They can give you a perfectly aligned symmetrical white smile and with the translucent quality of ceramic materials available today they provides a totally natural look.
Porcelain fillings are a strong, durable, natural looking option for restoring teeth damaged by decay. Made from a specially formulated porcelain composite material, porcelain fillings can restore your damaged teeth to their full function and natural beauty. More durable than other types of filling, porcelain fillings can actually strengthen the tooth.
Porcelain fillings are crafted from a specially formulated dental ceramic material. This porcelain material is designed to be tough, durable, and visually indistinguishable from natural tooth enamel. When bonded correctly, white fillings can actually strengthen the tooth.
As you age your teeth can become stained or discoloured. Tooth whitening is a great innovation in dentistry which can help to lighten the natural colour of your teeth without resorting to removing or replacing teeth.
The most common form of tooth whitening is bleaching performed under the supervision of a dentist. This is where chemicals are applied which can penetrate into your enamel and create a chemical reaction which works to dissolve the materials which cause the discolouration. The most popular chemicals used in tooth whitening include hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide. Before applying the chemical Dr. McCarthy-Krisanits will give your teeth a thorough cleaning and examine the rest of your mouth to check for cavities and any gum infections. A protective barrier is usually put in place to protect your gums which could potentially be damaged or burnt. The compound will then be pasted on your teeth where it will remain for several minutes. After this the paste is rinsed off and the procedure repeated a number of times. Significant results can be achieved by this method after only one treatment.
