Cosmetic dentistry

Treatments such as crowns, bridge, veneers, and teeth whitening enable you to discover your new enhanced smile!

Bridge: Bridge is a procedure used to replace missing teeth. This fixed restoration is composed of the abutment teeth from each side of the gap and a prosthetic tooth, called a “pontic”,  in the middle. The abutment teeth serve as anchors, holding the pontic, artificial tooth, in place. Bridge can be fabricated from either alloy, gold, porcelain or a combination of these materials. Your doctor will discuss these various options in detail with you during your visit.
Dental bridge helps restore patients’ smiles, and helps them continue simple daily tasks that we often take for granted –chewing or speaking. They also preserve the natural positioning of dentition, preventing any unwanted movement of teeth.
Crowns: Dental crown is a full cover or “cap” cemented over a tooth. The crown restores the tooth to its normal shape, size, and function. A crown can help improve the esthetics and appearance of a tooth. Crowns may be recommended for those who are dissatisfied with the appearance or colour of their tooth, or have had root canal therapy or cavity that is too large for a filling. Similar to a bridge, crowns can be fabricated from a variety of materials.

Veneers are partial-coverage restorative treatments,  recommended to patients who want to improve their smile and enhance the esthetics of their front teeth. Fabricated from porcelain-like material, these tooth-coloured restorative options help correct the esthetics of malformed, discoloured, or chipped teeth. They can also be used in patients who want to improve the undesired gaps between their teeth.
