Cosmetic Dentistry in Battersea

State-of-the-art cosmetic dentistry solutions in Battersea

These days, your appearance depends less on your genes and more on your choice. Your smile can be worked upon to shape it the way you want.

Healthy teeth and gums ensure fresh breath, which in turn not only boosts our self-confidence but also allow us to eat anything we want comfortably. In addition to that, we also need to have the perfect smile, which makes us more attractive and friendly.

Cosmetic dentistry has come a long way to cater to all of these requirements. Using the latest computer imaging technology, it is possible to preview the probable results of cosmetic dentistry treatments, so that you can choose your ideal smile. Furthermore, you can discuss the components that you don’t like in your smile. Also, you can learn about the available options and get an accurate quote for the particular treatment.

Cosmetic dentistry treatments at Chatfield Dental care

Teeth whitening:

Teeth whitening is one of the most popular and affordable solutions for a better smile. Teeth bleaching is possible both in-chair at your dentist’s office and at home using home kits. A range of whitening products, like whitening toothpaste, white strips and rinses is available over the counter at various retail outlets.

Benefits:

• The treatment offers practical solutions to certain varieties of staining and discolouration of the teeth.
• Free from any unwanted side-effects when performed by a dental professional.
• Boosts aesthetic quotient of your teeth to a great extent.

Dental veneers:

These are custom-made wafer-thin shells, cut out from tooth-coloured resin or porcelain. About half mm of the teeth enamel is scraped off before the shells are bonded with the front surface of your teeth using dental cement. As a result, your teeth undergo a drastic improvement in their overall appearance including shape, colour, size and length.

Benefits:

• It is a simple and fast solution to boost the cosmetic appearance of the teeth.
• The results are long-lasting.
• The treatment contributes handsomely to your smile enhancement.
• It makes your teeth appear natural.

Dental bonding:

This is a reliable cosmetic alternate to silver and amalgam fillings for the teeth. A putty-like resin, identical to the colour of your tooth is made from long-lasting plastic. It is then applied to the tooth’s surface. Then it is hardened with UV or laser to bond with the tooth. Your cosmetic dentist trims, shapes and polishes it to give a natural finishing. This is also an excellent way to provide aesthetic uplift to your cracked, chipped, decayed or misshapen teeth.

Benefits:

• A damaged tooth makes your smile appear unattractive and dental bonding can help you avoid that.
• It is also effective in correcting chips, gaps and cavities in the teeth.
• The procedure contributes to your better oral health.

Dental crown:

A crown is popularly known as a cap, as it fits over a decayed tooth. It also replaces a tooth that is damaged above the gum line. In short, a dental crown restores the size, shape, appearance and even the strength of a damaged tooth to a great extent. Crowns are known to retain a weak tooth or hold a cracked tooth together. The option can also provide cosmetic cover-up to a misshapen or badly discoloured tooth. A dental cap or crown is made from various materials including resin, ceramic and porcelain fused to metals.

Benefits:

• A crown strengthens your tooth.
• It helps in restoring the tooth’s natural size and shape.
• Works as an excellent covering for a dental implant.
• Moreover, crowns support dental bridges.
• A crown also restores a broken tooth and protects a weak tooth from breaking to pieces.

Inlays and onlays:

These are also known as indirect filling and can be made from varieties of substances, including gold, porcelain and composite material. They’re an excellent option to fill damaged or decayed teeth. Unlike dental fillings, inlays and onlays are prepared in dental labs. Your dentist only bonds them in place. When the filling is bonded with the centre of the tooth – it is an inlay. When it covers the entire biting surface of a tooth, it is called an Onlay. They are a reliable alternate to dental crowns and prove helpful in retaining healthy teeth.

Benefits:

• They are helpful for preserving the remaining tooth structure.
• They offer natural-looking restoration.
• Moreover, Inlays and Onlays provide long-lasting aesthetic and functional solutions.

Dental implants:

These are basically titanium posts that are surgically drilled into the empty socket of your missing tooth. An implant post is the replacement of the roots of a missing tooth. The biocompatible metal gradually fuses with your jawbone and the surrounding tissues to offer an ideal foundation for the replacement tooth. Unlike other conventional alternatives to teeth loss, implants cater to both aesthetic and functional aspects of the missing tooth and can easily last nearly a lifetime.

Benefits:

• Dental implants prevent bone loss from the jaw.
• It also prevents changes to your facial shape that make you appear much older than your actual age.
• Moreover, it restores your full bite force.
• An implant post lifts your self-confidence.
• Last but never the least, the solution enables your natural speech.

Other treatment alternatives in cosmetic dentistry

At Chatfield Dental Centre we also offer a range of other treatments under cosmetic dentistry. These include the following:

• Dental bridge: A dental bridge consists of two or more crowns on both sides of a gap with a false tooth in between. The anchoring teeth are called Abutment teeth.
• Denture: A denture is an easily removable replacement of your missing teeth.
• Dental braces: Dental braces are meant to straighten crooked or misaligned teeth.
