Frequently Asked Questions

Chipped or abnormally shaped tooth? Spacing between teeth?
1. Composite Bonding can help fix small problems in a few teeth or even just one tooth. The procedure can transform the shape, shade and appearance of teeth – all on the same day. It is a minimally invasive process that improves teeth shape by the addition of a tooth coloured composite, which is then ‘bonded’ to the natural tooth. The composite is hand sculpted by the dentist to achieve the desired shape to create a natural looking tooth. A vast range of shades are available to help match tooth colour perfectly.

Discoloured or worn out teeth? Crooked teeth?
1. Composite Veneers could be a good option. A composite resin is sculpted directly onto the teeth to produce beautiful results. The process is similar to Composite Bonding, however, its used for more extensive reshaping of the teeth. Composite Veneers are carefully sculpted and hardened by the dentist – typically in a single appointment. They are less invasive, do less damage to the underlying tooth and are more cost effective than Porcelain Veneers.
2. Porcelain Veneers use thin, custom-made shells of tooth-coloured porcelain bonded to the surface of the tooth. They can be a good option in certain circumstances – e.g. deep staining or minor teeth misalignment which is difficult to mask with composites. If you have minor misalignment in your teeth, Porcelain Veneers can reshape your teeth and make them look perfectly straight — no braces required. They are typically longer lasting and more durable than Composite Veneers.

Looking specifically for a smile makeover?
1. A combination of Composite Veneers and Composite Bonding can fix chips, cracks, gaps and create beautiful smile makeovers without damaging the underlying tooth structures. Usually 4-6 Composite Veneers are done to the front teeth to produce the smile makeover. No drills and also no massive bills.
2. Porcelain Veneers are commonly used for smile makeovers, where all the visible teeth are fitted with Porcelain Veneers to give a balanced, uniform, white tooth smile that extends to the sides of the mouth. Porcelain Veneers give good long term stable results for colour and shape.

Teeth Reshaping Treatments

If you’re looking to improve the shape and structure of your teeth, there are a few methods of achieving your goals. Some are more invasive than others whilst being a little more robust. Here are some of the ways you can reshape your teeth.

Composite Bonding

Composite Bonding is typically reserved for situations where only minor chips or repairs are required. Subtle changes to the length and shape of the tooth can be made. Minor gaps between teeth can be successfully closed using the procedure. The procedure requires no needles or drills and is reversible. The procedure is often used when natural teeth are a little crooked, not as white, chipped or cracked. Results are typically same day.

Composite Veneers

Composite Veneers enable large changes in tooth shape and form. Composite Veneers can be used to whiten a tooth’s shade, make teeth appear more straight and aligned, increase tooth size and also to close gaps between teeth where more extensive work is required compared to composite bonding. A full smile makeover can cost a lot less than one with Porcelain Veneers. Composite Veneers can be a great cosmetic alternative to Porcelain.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain Veneers use a porcelain shell bonded to the front face of the teeth to change their shape, colour, size and position. They can also mask defects or deep stains and camouflage minor teeth misalignments. Similarly if underlying tooth enamel is damaged, porcelain veneers can improve the appearance, shape and symmetry of the teeth. The procedure involves preparing part of the tooth structure and can take a number of appointments and up to three weeks to complete.
