Lingual Full Arch Braces, Tooth Whitening & Cosmetic Bonding Smile Transformation

Our case of the month for March is simply astounding. Smile transformation in the true sense of the word. There were three treatments involved in the process:

  1. Lingual full arch braces
  2. Tooth whitening
  3. Cosmetic bonding

Lingual braces are braces placed on the inside of the teeth. If your lifestyle does not support traditional outside braces, then this is the option for you. They are the only invisible brace and can correct teeth in the same manner as conventional braces. We use self ligating lingual braces as a rule- these types of brackets do not require any additional wires or elastic bands to be placed around them. This reduces friction and speeds up treatment. Examples of the types of brackets we use are MTM, GC Experience and Forestadent 2-D brackets.

The Start Position

The process is as simple as ABC: Alignment using a cosmetic brace; Bleaching teeth to whiten them; Cosmetic bonding to enhance the symmetry. There is NO need to cut and destroy healthy tooth enamel. The Progressive Dentistry Smile is pain free, affordable and creates beautiful natural smiles. Smile transformation of the 21st century.

Invisalign For Arch Expansion, Teeth Whitening & Cosmetic Teeth Bonding

Our case of the month for August 2022 was a fabulous one! A real smile transformation done correctly. Forget 'Turkey Teeth'! A smile transformation should involve minimal or no biological damage to the teeth and gums to enhance the aesthetic and functional issues. The term 'Turkey Teeth comes from social media posts where a smile makeover is done over a weekend by hacking away natural healthy tooth structure and placing multiple crowns and veneers. These are often linked together with no means of cleaning b… READ MORE

Tooth Wear & Cosmetic Bonding Case Of The Month

Our case of the month for November 2021 was a classic tooth bonding case involving severe tooth wear. Tooth wear is an increasing problem with grinding at night becoming an ever increasing problem coupled with acid in the diet. The combination of these two factors can lead to the softening and dissolving enamel leading to thin edges, chipping, fractures and exposure of the underlying dentine which can be very sensitive. The beauty of cosmetic bonding is that we can treat the wear, protect the teeth and impr… READ MORE
