Design
A smile is a powerful way of communication for a person.
But if you are self-conscious about your teeth, you
may tend to cover your teeth when you smile or not
smile at all! This may create false impressions about
you. You may be branded as non-communication, shy
or even unfriendly.
A
new smile will not only clear these assumptions about
you but will also help you make a greater impact -
both, personally & professionally. Healthy teeth form
the foundation of an appealing smile. Today; thanks
to cosmetic dentistry, a wide range of dental techniques
are employed to enhance your smile. A skillful blend
of cosmetic science and art, helps your dentist "sculpt"
or 'design' smile for you.
In
"SMILE DESIGN" the cosmetically enhanced teeth look
more natural and last longer; as a result of improved
technology and materials.
You are a candidate for smile design if
- You
have stained teeth or dicoloured fillings
- Your
teeth are crowed; overlapping or crooked
- You
have missing teeth/large gaps between teeth
- Your
teeth have uneven shapes due to chipping, fractures
or rough edges
- Your
teeth are uneven in length
- Your
gums are red, swollen, receding or bleeding
In"SMILE
DESIGN" the overall appearance of your six upper front
teeth is improved upon; since are the most visible
when you smile.
The other remaining teeth are also attended to, if
they pose problems,
The
various techniques imployed in "Smile Design" are
as follows
Orthodontia - This is a specialised field of
dentistry by which malaligned teeth (crooked or crowded)
are straightened into their normal positions by using
braces; wires etc.
Porcelain Veneers - A porcelain veneer is a
paperthin custom made covering that conceals the front
and side surfaces of the tooth, much like a mask or
an artificial fingernail. Since it is made of ceramic,
it is very durable. Cosmetically, veneers look very
natural. Veneers are very versatile. They can correct
stains, breaks and odd shapes, and can lengthen individual
teeth.
