Tooth whitening is the most asked for cosmetic dental procedure especially for Christmas. Whitening teeth is a simple, predictable and non invasive way of producing a gleaming smile. We have a number of methods to whiten teeth. A new system we have introduced is that of Enlighten whitening. This is the only system that guarantees a B1 result, which is one of the lightest dental shades. Therefore, if you have undergone whitening in the past without success, this could be the system for you! Have a look at our case study:
 

Our case of the month for November 2013 is a superb ABC case. This involves: 

A- alignment of teeth using invisible lingual braces

ABC is the FUTURE of cosmetic dentistry. A new smile can be achieved with non invasive dentistry, preservation of tooth enamel, no needles and no drilling!! What could be better?

Our dental tip of the week involves teeth whitening. Teeth whitening can be achieved without expensive treatments by following these simple steps: 

1. Visit the dental hygienist. Stain removal will instantly whiten your teeth and keep your gums healthy.

2. Avoid staining foods and drinks. These include coffee, strong tea especially green tea, dark berries, artificial colourings and curries.

3. Use an electric toothbrush. High quality electric brushes are far better at removing stain than manual toothbrushes.

4. Use teeth whitening strips. These are inexpensive and do not require any messy gels or impressions. Teeth whitening need not be an arduous, expensive procedure. 

Start the process and contact us to book your hygiene visit now.

Our case of the month for October is a tooth whitening case using one of our most popular techniques: take home trays. Teeth whitening is the most popular cosmetic dental treatment. Having whiter, brighter teeth that look clean and healthy is desirable and confidence boosting. The treatment is available to all with their own teeth!
  

THE PROCESS

1. A full clinical examination is required prior to any cosmetic dental procedure.
2. It is highly advised that you visit the hygienist prior to any tooth whitening procedure.
3. Impressions are then taken of your teeth. 
4. The specially made trays are fitted and a demonstration is required to show how to use the whitening gel properly. 
5. The trays and gel are worn for 1 hour a day over 2 weeks. 
6. Whiter teeth! 
7. The trays and gel can be used as a top up over the following months/ years. A typical example is presented below:
 

Our case of the month for August is a fantastic one involving ABC. To remind you: A is for Alignment, B is for bleaching and C is for cosmetic bonding. This is the NON INVASIVE smile makeover, a treatment suitable for all. In the old days of cosmetic dentistry, teeth would be cut heavily for porcelain veneers to provide a new smile. No longer! We can transform your smile with 3 simple steps: ABC Our case involved a ceramic brace, teeth whitening and composite bonding to enhance the smile. Don't take our words for it, see for yourself:
 

We pride ourselves on being progressive and leading the way in modern cosmetic dentistry. In the old days, cosmetic dentistry was more about being invasive and cutting healthy tooth enamel for multiple veneers or crowns. Due to the advances in technology and materials this has all changed. These days, if a tooth does need a veneer or crown, then we will match this tooth with the other teeth as best as possible. This way, the adjacent teeth do not need to be harmed in anyway. Here is a classic example. Our patient required a front tooth crown. After some tooth whitening, a new crown was made in all ceramic. Just look at the result:
