Teeth whitening

Tooth whitening is a great option for those with discoloured teeth. The three types of whitening treatments are:

• Over-the-counter products which can be used at home
• Tailored kits made by our dentists to be used at home
• In-chair treatments that must be performed by one of our dentists

Efficacy and concentration are the differences between these treatments. Treatments that are used at home are weaker and must be applied several times over a given period; in-chair treatments use stronger products that only need to be used once.

Dental veneers

The two types of dental veneers available are porcelain and composite, both of which act as enamel shells which fit over the chipped or stained tooth. The porcelain versions are easy to maintain, durable and stain resistant, and a great option for crooked, stained or chipped teeth. Composite veneers are less expensive and a faster treatment.

Invisible braces

Invisible braces are a new, exciting technology. They are clear, plastic, 3D-printed aligners designed to be worn 24 hours a day to correct the position of teeth. Compared to the traditional metal, bulky ones, they are far less noticeable.

White fillings

White fillings are also known as composite fillings, and serve as an alternative to amalgam (metal) fillings. They give a far more natural look and are therefore more aesthetically pleasing. Their several other advantages include reduced sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures and an ability to restore the original strength of the tooth.

Crowns & dental bridges

Dental crowns look like little helmets for teeth and they’re designed to restore the integrity of a compromised tooth. Dental bridges fill in gaps left by missing teeth; they are fixed to the teeth that remain on either side of the gap. These treatments are natural, cosmetically-pleasing solutions for people with damaged or missing teeth.

Dentures

Dentures are used to replace anywhere from one to all of a person’s teeth and increase the functionality of molars. They can feel strange at first, but most people don’t notice them once they get used to it.
