Have you got crooked, worn, discoloured, damaged or unhealthy teeth? Chances are you’ve thought about replacing them to not only restore function but also, to enhance your appearance. But what is the best option for you? At Gosford Family Dentists we offer a range of modern cosmetic dental treatments that are tailored to you and your requirements. Here are some of the ways we can help enhance your smile.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns repair and strengthen damaged teeth, and improve your overall smile. Crowns are placed over individual teeth like a cap and can be made out of composite resin, porcelain or metal. By encasing a tooth with a dental crown, you’re restoring the look of your natural tooth and protecting it from further wear.
Dental Implants
Replacing a missing tooth impacts not only your smile but your ability to speak and chew. A dental implant is an artificial fixture that mimics the form of a real tooth. The natural root of the tooth is replaced with a titanium screw-like post, which is inserted into the jaw bone. This post then supports a tooth-shaped dental crown or can be used to secure dentures. Dental implants have been used for over 50 years and have proven highly successful to replace one or more missing teeth.
Dental Veneers
Veneers are thin coverings made from composite resin or porcelain that are bonded to the front surface of teeth. Unlike dental implants and crowns, they do not replace teeth or parts of teeth. They can be used to change the colour, shape, texture and alignment of your teeth.
Orthodontics
Correcting crooked teeth and misaligned jaws can make it easier to clean your teeth and enhance your smile. Braces and Invisalign® help to move your teeth and jaw into a desired position over time, with regular adjustments being made by your dentist over the course of your treatment. Some treatments may be completed in a few months, while others can take a year or more.
Teeth Whitening
While teeth whitening doesn’t have the same functional or health benefits as other treatments, it’s still one of the most popular cosmetic dental services. Teeth whitening treatments use bleaching gels that help to lift stains and remove discolouration from the surface of your teeth. You can receive the treatment in our dental clinic, or our dentists can prepare a take-home kit for you to use over a period of time.
