Cosmetic dentistry

If you have ever felt self-conscious about your teeth, smile with your mouth closed for photographs, or cover your mouth when you are talking, then we can help.

We offer a wide choice of advanced cosmetic procedures that can solve virtually any problem, and leave you beaming with confidence.

DENTAL IMPLANTS

A dental implant is the most functional secure replacement for a missing tooth or teeth. A titanium implant is placed into the jaw replacing the root. This is a straightforward procedure which can be completed under local anaesthetic. Following the healing of the implant into the jaw bone, an abutment will be fixed to the implant to hold the replacement tooth/crown in place.

VENEERS

Dental veneer are thin layers of porcelain which are bonded to your teeth, giving an extremely realistic look and often making a huge difference to your appearance. They can disguise a variety of imperfections, including crooked teeth, stains, cracks, chips and gaps.

TOOTH WHITENING

Tooth whitening is one of our most popular treatments. We can brighten your smile using a variety of whitening systems. Having your teeth whitened can leave you looking years younger and beaming with confidence.

TOOTH-COLOURED FILLINGS

Tooth coloured fillings are also popular, as they look so much better than traditional grey amalgam fillings. We use the latest materials to give lasting and realistic results.

CLEAR (INVISIBLE) ORTHODONTICS

Clear braces provide an alternative to conventional cosmetic dental treatments with the advantage of being completely removable so that your dental hygiene and enjoyment of food is not hindered in any way. Treatments can take as little as three months depending upon case complexity. We use the Invisalign (www.invisalign.co.uk) and Hanham clear brace techniques.

WRINKLE REDUCTION TREATMENTS (BOTOX)

Botulinum toxin can be used to treat all wrinkles resulting from normal facial movement. When it is injected into a specific muscle in the face it blocks the signals from the nerves to the muscle. This means that the nerve ending cannot tell the muscle to move, hence there will be less wrinkling of the skin in the areas treated. It in effect causes the muscle to hibernate. This relaxing of the muscle reduces dynamic lines in the face leading to a softer natural looking appearance.

DERMAL FILLERS TREATMENTS

A treatment with dermal fillers provides an easy way to enhance your looks. The result of a single treatment of hyaluronic acid can be seen instantly and typically lasts 6-10 months.

With dermal fillers you will achieve a natural looking result that does not affect facial expression. Remember that your face changes over time and treatments with dermal fillers will allow you to have an element of control of your looks and features subtly as you age.

Typical areas treated with Dermal Fillers are:

  • Lip Enhancement
  • Nasolabial Folds (nose-mouth lines)
  • Marionette Lines (lines corners of mouth)
  • Tear Troughs
  • Cheeks
  • Chin Augmentation
  • Nose reshaping (rhinoplasty)
