Porcelain Veneers Porcelain veneers and porcelain crowns can be used to very esthetically correct a variety of problems, such as: Change the color of the teeth to make them permanently whiter. Change the length of the teeth to make them longer or shorter. Change the contours of the teeth to make them more masculine or feminine. Making crooked teeth seem straight-instant orthodontics. Correcting gaps or spaces between the teeth. Creating a fuller more beautiful smile by giving the lips and cheeks more support. Porcelain veneers and crowns are a very exciting advancement in cosmetic dentistry. Dynamic results can usually be achieved within a week or two.
Porcelain Inlays/Onlays A porcelain inlay is small and covers the grooves of the teeth. An onlay is larger and covers one or more cusps or corners of a tooth. Porcelain inlays and onlays have several advantages over other filling materials. When used to replace a silver filling, they will add strength to the tooth. Porcelain is also harder and more durable than white composite fillings. The inlay or onlay will be bonded to your tooth, which creates a resilient, watertight seal. The best part of all is that these restorations can be custom coloured to match your own teeth. A porcelain onlay will also be more conservative, saving more natural tooth structure, than a full crown. Porcelain inlays and onlays are a great way to restore strength to weak teeth. Excellent cosmetics, combined with conservation of tooth structure, make them the treatment of choice for many patients.
Dentures Full dentures Full dentures are a treatment option of last resort. When a patient has had all their teeth removed, or is about to have the remaining teeth taken out, dentures are a treatment choice to help restore some of the function of the lost teeth. Dentures have certain problems. As the bone under them recedes, the dentures will need to be relined occasionally to make them fit better and be more stable. Some people find chewing more difficult with dentures. The taste and texture of food is different since the dentures cover the roof of the mouth. Dentures can become painful when they move around and create sore spots on the gums. Some people will find dentures have a tendency to make them gag, even if the denture is perfectly made. Being able to chew your food properly for good nutrition can sometimes be challenging wearing dentures.
Partial dentures When a person has some of their teeth remaining, then a partial denture is a possible treatment choice. Impressions are taken of the mouth and teeth and a partial denture is made to fit to these teeth.
