Veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made porcelain shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. They instantly improve your smile by correcting colour, shape, size, and minor alignment issues. Our dentists carefully bond these durable, natural-looking shells to your teeth for a transformative yet subtle enhancement.

Are Veneers the Right Choice for My Smile?

Veneers might be ideal if you have:

• Discoloured teeth resistant to whitening
• Chipped or worn teeth
• Minor misalignment or unevenly spaced teeth
• Misshapen teeth
• A desire for a complete smile makeover

Top 5 Benefits of Veneers

1. Dramatically improve your smile in just a few appointments.
2. We can tailor the colour, shape, and size to your preferences.
3. Porcelain veneers resist staining better than natural teeth.
4. They require less tooth reduction compared to crowns.
5. With proper care, veneers can last 10-15 years or more.

The process involves surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone, which then integrates with your natural bone over 3-6 months. This osseointegration provides a sturdy foundation for a custom-made crown. Implants not only replace missing teeth but also stimulate bone growth, preserving facial structure and preventing adjacent teeth from shifting.

Types of Dental Implants We Offer

• Single Tooth Implants
• Multiple Tooth Implants
• All-on-4® Implants
• Mini Implants

Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Many patients qualify for implants, even with:

• Single or multiple missing teeth
• Some bone loss (we offer bone grafting)
• Controlled gum disease
• Managed health conditions
• Current smokers (quitting improves success)

Root canal treatment is a procedure that removes infected or damaged pulp from inside a tooth. This treatment saves your natural tooth, eliminating pain and preventing further infection. Using advanced techniques and local anaesthesia, we make the process comfortable and efficient.

• Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures
• Discolouration of the tooth
• Swelling or tenderness in nearby gums
• Persistent or recurring pimple on the gums

• Single-visit treatments in many cases
• Sedation options for anxious patients

Benefits of Root Canal Therapy

• Relieves tooth pain and preserves your natural tooth
• Prevents spread of infection and restores normal biting force and sensation
• More cost-effective than tooth extraction and replacement

Dental crowns are custom-made caps that cover and protect damaged teeth. They restore teeth shape, size, strength, and appearance.

Our dentists always prioritise saving your natural teeth. However, when a tooth is severely damaged or poses a risk to your oral health, extraction may be necessary. If extraction is required, our skilled team uses 3D imaging for precise planning and minimally invasive surgical techniques. We perform both routine tooth extractions and wisdom tooth removals.

When Do I Need a Tooth Extraction?

• Severe decay or damage
• Advanced gum disease
• Impacted wisdom teeth
• Overcrowding before orthodontic treatment
• Fractured teeth
• Risk of infection

Types of Extractions

• Simple extraction for visible teeth
• Surgical extraction for impacted or broken teeth
• Simple or surgical wisdom tooth removal

What Are the Potential Risks of Tooth Removal?

We take every precaution to minimise these risks and will discuss them thoroughly during your consultation

• Dry socket (alveolar osteitis)
• Infection at the extraction site
• Damage to adjacent teeth
• Temporary numbness due to nerve irritation
• Sinus complications (for upper molar extractions)
• Jaw stiffness or soreness
• Delayed healing in some patients

Dental bridges are custom-made prosthetics that are a great option when you have a missing tooth or a few missing teeth in a row, and the adjacent teeth are healthy enough to support the bridge. Cosmetic dentist will prepare the adjacent teeth by removing some enamel to make room for the crowns. Then, a custom-made bridge, consisting of the artificial tooth/teeth (pontics) and the crowns for the adjacent teeth, is cemented in place.

Is a Dental Bridge the Best Option for Me?

Bridges might be ideal if you have:

• One or more missing teeth
• Healthy adjacent teeth to support the bridge
• Difficulty chewing or speaking due to tooth loss
• Changes in your facial structure due to missing teeth
• A desire for a fixed, non-removable tooth replacement option

Types of Dental Bridges We Offer

• Traditional bridges – artificial tooth supported by crowns on adjacent teeth.
• Cantilever bridges – when one adjacent tooth is available for support.
• Maryland bonded bridges – used for replacing front teeth.
• Implant-supported bridges – anchored to dental implants, ideal when adjacent teeth are weak or multiple teeth are missing.

What are the main benefits of modern dental bridges?

• Restore your ability to chew and speak properly
• Maintain your facial structure by preventing bone loss
• Distribute bite forces evenly, protecting remaining teeth
• Prevent teeth shifting out of position
• Complete and natural-looking smile
