Cosmetic dentistry (smile makeovers) is the easiest and quickest way to enhance your smile, overall face structure and personality.

Smile which is not in harmony with the facial structures

We start with a one on one consultation process to understand the patients personality and attitude as a whole followed by a thorough examination and in depth discussion of the patient's expectation of a perfect smile. Smile makeovers can be completed within a time frame of 1 day to 1 week depending upon various factors.Professional cleaning of teeth should be done prior to starting any type of procedure whether veneers / braces.


Veneers:

If you are going for veneers ,your dentist will make study models of your teeth so that you can get an idea of what your teeth can look like when the porcelain veneers are in place. Once these models are approved, an appointment can be set up for the actual procedure. Local anaesthesia is generally recommended if there will be tooth preparation to avoid any discomfort. Once the preparation of your teeth is completed your dentist will make an impression of your teeth. This impression will be used by the dental laboratory to create your custom porcelain veneers. Initially your dentist will place the veneers to check that the colour, shape and size is as desired. If they meet all your expectations, the dentist will bond them to your teeth creating your new smile.


Tooth Whitening:

Tooth whitening is the simplest procedure to get a sparkle in your smile. Your dentist will apply either a protective gel or a rubber shield to protect your gums. Bleaching gel is then applied to the teeth. A special light or laser might be used to enhance the action of the whitening agent. The session lasts 10 to 15 minutes. Two or three of these sessions may be required varying from case to case.


Dental Bonding:

This is the quickest way to get the perfect teeth. Your dentist will properly isolate your tooth by using cotton rolls / rubber dam. After that a soft tooth like material is bonded directly to your teeth in multiple thin layers and hardened it with a UV light. This layering is done till the desired shade and shape is achieved. The final result is closest in appearance to that of surrounding natural teeth.


All these procedures can beautify your pearly white smile and by choosing the correct procedure, you can have something to smile about everyday!
