Brighter, Whiter Smiles, Naturally
Teeth whitening is the single most effective way to instantly improve the appearance of your smile and your self-confidence. It is universally safe and effective because rather than mask discolouration, it brings out the natural whiteness in teeth by neutralising pigments and stains.
Don’t be fooled by over the counter products. They have been proven time and time again to be virtually ineffective and appear unnatural. More importantly, they aren’t subjected to the same rigorous safety requirements as professional dental products.
All Professional Whitening methods work around the same, basic principle: depending on the choice of techniques, hydrogen peroxide-based gels of varying concentrations are applied to your teeth, and once activated, penetrate into the tooth structure and neutralise the stains and pigments within.
We offer a bespoke service for whitening based on our experience of completing numerous successful cases and offer a shade B1 guarantee with our system. Shade B1 is a whitest shade on the Vita Shade guide and we often have patients that exceed this too!
We use highly accurate impression materials or use a Digital scanner to pick small details to construct the best Ultraseal fitting whitening trays in which you apply whitening gels overnight. This has consistently produced excellent results and are the most cost-effective solution.
Professional tooth whitening is considered a permanent treatment, but subject to lifestyle, including coffee, tea and red wine consumption; there need may arise to top-up your whitening procedure every so often. We provide these top up procedures at a reduced rate to our patients who wish to keep their smiles looking brighter for life.
Not all whitening systems are the same. Sure, they can make your teeth whiter, but many whitening systems can cause transient sensitivity that can range from mild tingling to sharp, short bursts. This is primarily because many whitening solutions literally suck the moisture from the tooth. Our clinicians have thoroughly researched all available products and protocols and has selected whitening treatments that are aqueous in nature, minimising the risk of sensitivity for our patients. Rest assured that even if you do experience sensitivity, we have solutions on hand to alleviate it.
“Beautiful, natural aesthetics take time, care and a lot of love to create….nature doesn’t take short cuts!”
Are you considering a smile design or a cosmetic dental procedure but are hesitant because you are unsure of the final outcome?
The process of smile design is an intricate and detailed procedure that takes into account intimate knowledge of dental and facial anatomy, artistic and technical acuity, and most importantly, the individual needs and desires of the patient.
The most important stage in the smile design or smile makeover process is the “aesthetic prototype”, a visualisation aid that gives prospective clients a realistic preview of the final treatment and smile design result.
We go to extraordinary lengths, both in the clinic and in extensive communication with the laboratory, to personally design smiles with meticulous precision and natural harmony, and this involves a number of highly detailed processes:
Smile Design and Smile Makeover costs will be presented to you along with a timeline by our clinicians with your treatment plan during your Initial Consultation. Each smile is customised based on the detailed examination and understanding of your aesthetic smile makeover preferences.
“Your smile design should be customised and unique as you are”
Invisalign® is a revolutionary treatment that consists of a series of nearly invisible, removable aligners that are changed every one to two weeks for the next set of aligners.
Each aligner is individually manufactured for your teeth, and your teeth only. Invisalign® utilises powerful ClinCheck® simulation software to visualise intended tooth movements and design your case. From the results of the ClinCheck software, your custom-made, clear Invisalign® aligners are produced especially for you.
Each sequential Invisalign® aligner is designed to exert precise pressure and your teeth will move – little by little, week by week – until they have straightened to the final position.
Invisalign® offers many advantages over conventional orthodontics with braces.
The Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible and no-one will notice you’re wearing these “invisible braces”, making your treatment with Invisalign fit seamlessly with your lifestyle.
Invisalign aligners are removable. Unlike metal braces, you are free to eat and drink what you like by simply removing the aligners for meals. You can also remove the aligners to brush and floss, making oral hygiene easy to maintain throughout the duration of your treatment.
Invisalign cost can vary from patient to patient as it depends on the process and complexity in straightening your teeth. Invisalign cost can range from £2900 to £4500 depending on the length and complexity of the invisalign treatment.
1. Consultation
The first step to changing your smile with Invisalign® clear aligners is having a detailed consultation and clinical examination to determine the best course of treatment for your individual case. Often, there are a combination of treatments that are required to achieve an ideal result. Our unique skill is to interpret, design and sequence your case in conjunction with other treatment modalities such as porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, smile or gum lifts. You will understand the overall costs for Invisalign and all other costs after your initial consultation.
2. Invisalign Records
This next phase of treatment involves the acquisition of all the required records to diagnose and design your case. We will take a series of photographs, X-Rays and impressions or Digital Scans that will be sent to the Invisalign HQ.
3. Clincheck Case Design
Once the Invisalign records and prescription are received, the Invisalign technicians construct the Clincheck simulation for his approval. We will collaborate with our invisalign orthodontic colleagues and refine the case design to ensure optimal results and predictability in treatment. Once an approved treatment plan is formulated and you are happy with the smile projection, the Invisalign clear aligners are manufactured.
4. Your Invisalign treatment begins
Your first aligners will be fitted and you will be given all the instructions required to ensure the best results for your case. You will be required to wear your aligners for a minimum of 20 hours per day. You will generally be given a number of aligners at a time and we will review your treatment on average every 3 to 6 weeks depending on the case. You’re on your way to the smile you’ve always wanted.
Porcelain veneers are wafer thin (0.3mm-1.0mm) semi-translucent shells of hand-made porcelain that are bonded to the surface of the tooth for the treatment of gaps and chipped or broken teeth. It can also be used to simply alter your teeth to a more desired shape.
Dental Veneers can be created from a range of materials and techniques that can result in wide variability in appearance, longevity, and bio-compatibility. They produce stunning 3D optical aesthetic integration with natural teeth with a minimally-invasive approach.
The cost of dental veneers can vary from person to person. We have a unique, creative and meticulous methodology that ensures success with your smile design.
