Progressive Cosmetic Dentistry

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:

discoloured tooth, worn tooth
The front right tooth is heavily filled and discoloured
fantastic new tooth can you tell it is a crown
Fantastic new tooth. Can you tell it is a crown?

The new tooth is undetectable from the adacent teeth. Just look at the shape, shade, translucency at the tip and light reflection. This is an example of cosmetic dental excellence using the latest technology and skills. If you require a front tooth crown or are in need of minor or major cosmetic dentistry, please contact us today. A new smile could be just around the corner. Treatment completed by Dr Nissit Patel.

Our case of the month for July 2021 is quite a complex one involving multiple ceramic crowns after an accident during the first lockdown.
