Is tooth whitening an option for me?
Tooth whitening is a process that lightens discoloured teeth. Studies have shown that the proper use of dentist-monitored whitening systems is an effective way of enhancing your smile. Almost anyone can benefit from tooth whitening. Your prosthodontist can determine if you are a suitable candidate for home whitening through a thorough oral examination and diagnosis.
What is a Crown?
When decay is more extensive, a crown (cap) is recommended. The exciting news is that now you can have a crown that gives you the strength, beauty, translucency and feel of a natural tooth.
What are Inlays?
Defective or unsightly fillings can be replaced by all ceramic inlays… an exciting tooth coloured material that is bonded to the tooth for added support. Instead of simply being held by cement, this bonding process can improve the strength and beauty of your tooth.
What are Veneers?
If you are not happy with the alignment, colour or form of your teeth you can greatly improve your smile with ceramic veneers. A veneer is a thin layer of porcelain that is bonded to the front of your teeth and becomes part of the tooth. Typically, for optimal aesthetics, multiple teeth may need to be veneered. |
