Like natural teeth

Are you missing one or more teeth? Or do you have difficulty eating certain foods or speaking clearly due to tooth loss? Do you suffer from the discomfort of ill-fitting dentures?

If so, dental implants may be the solution for you. Dental implants help to support replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like your natural teeth, and can offer as many benefits, such as:

• Eliminate the need to grind down healthy adjacent teeth as required by traditional crown and bridge procedures.
• Help. to stimulate and maintain the bone tissues in the jaw and consequently the facial structures.
• Eliminate the need for denture adhesives and the discomfort often associated with ill-fitting dentures.
• Shorter healing times.
• Reduced "chairtime"
• Long-term & esthetic results.
  

The Innovation of dental implants

Dental implants are small screws that act as artificial tooth roots when placed in the jawbone.

They are made of titanium, a metal well-accepted by the body and one that can form a strong bond with the bone to create a stable foundation.

An abutment is then fitted to the top of the implant to create an anchor for the placement of a crown, bridge, or prosthesis.

The natural tooth replacement solution

By acting as a tooth root, dental implants provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth that stay securely in place, so you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

Replacing a single tooth
Dental implants are an ideal solution for replacing a single missing tooth. They help to eliminate the need to grind down healthy adjacent teeth as required by traditional crown and bridge procedures.

...or several teeth
Implants are also an optimal solution for replacing several teeth and can be placed to support individual crowns or a single bridge. Because implants act as replacement tooth roots, support from healthy adjacent teeth through the use of clasps or grinding is eliminated.

...or all of your teeth
In addition to looking and functioning like natural teeth, implant-supported dentures and full bridges are designed to be an effective and stable long-term solution. Implants eliminate the need for adhesives to keep dentures in place, as well as the sores and pain often associated with ill-fitting dentures. By stimulating the jawbone, implants also help to maintain the bone and the natural shape of your face.

Dental Implants can replace a single missing tooth.

..as well as several missing teeth

..or all of the teeth, in the upper or lower jaw.

Dental Veneers

• Thin covering placed over the front part of the tooth.
• Used for discolored, poorly shaped, or slightly crooked teeth.

Ceramic Veneers

Are your front teeth stained or chipped? Are they slightly crooked? Do you have a noticeable gap between teeth that makes you feel uncomfortable when you smile or talk? Veneeres may be an option to a more pleasing, attractive smile.

Before & After

Tooth Whitening

Tooth whitening (also called bleaching) is a procedure that brightens teeth that are discolored, stained, or have been darkened because of injury. It can be performed on most teeth, including teeth that have had root canal treatment.

Bleaching may be done completely in the dental office (known as chairside bleaching) or the dentist may dispense a system for you to use at home (home-use bleaching). Please note: if you are considering using over-the-counter bleaching products, consult your dentist first, to ask about safety and effectiveness.

Chairside bleaching takes from 30 minutes to one hour per visit. A chemical solution, the oxidizing agent, is applied to the teeth. A special light may be used at intervals to help accelerate the bleaching agent. To complete the process, two or more sessions may be required. Following bleaching treatments, it is not uncommon for the teeth to temporarily become slightly sensitive to touch, temperature, or pressure.

With home-use bleaching, your dentist makes a custom-fitted mouthguard-like appliance that holds a bleaching gel. It is worn daily or at night for about two weeks. The amount of time the mouthguard-like appliance is worn and the treatment duration may vary according to your needs and your dentist's recommendations. Although the effects of bleaching may last for several years, beverages and foods such as coffee, tea, and berries can stain teeth again. Consequently, periodic touch-up treatments may be needed.

When bleaching is not possible (as with teeth deeply stained due to past use of tetracyclines), veneers or bonding may be needed.

Bonding

Bonding is a cosmetic procedure that can improve the appearance of teeth that are chipped, broken, cracked, stained, or have spaces between them. With bonding, tooth-colored materials are applied, or bonded, to the tooth surface. The process can improve naturally discolored teeth; front-tooth spaces; and accident induced cracks or chips. Bonding also is used to protect exposed tooth roots that result from gum recession and to fill small cavities. Bonding usually lasts from three to five years.

The bonding process involves preparing the tooth surface with an etching solution that allows the bonding material (composite resins) to adhere to the tooth surface. Composite resins are plastic materials made, of glass-like substances and resin. Various color resins are carefully blended to match the color of the existing tooth and look completely natural. The resin is applied, contoured to the proper shape and hardened using a special light or chemical process. It is then smoothed and polished to appear natural. Bonding may not require the use of anesthesia or drilling and can usually be completed in one visit.

White Fillings

• Made from tooth-colored materials that restore the natural appearance of a decayed or perviously filled tooth.
• They blend well with toth enamel & don't look like fillings.

Advances in modern dental materials and techniques increasingly offer new ways to create more pleasing, natural looking smiles.
