Crowns and Bridges

Proper function of speaking, eating and drinking are often compromised when you suffer from tooth loss and this can have a number of negative effects on your health. Luckily modern dentistry provides a range of options for replacing missing teeth, from traditional dentures to dental crowns and bridges. Replacing missing teeth is important to your general health and helps maintain good oral hygiene. Dental crowns and Dental bridges are the most effective way of restoring damaged teeth.

If you have spaces in your mouth due to a missing tooth or teeth you can be a candidate for Dental bridge work. Bridges are custom made to fill in the space with a false tooth or teeth. The false tooth is then attached by the bridge to the two other teeth in the surrounding space, bridging them together. The main advantage of having dental bridge work is that bridges look natural, and usually require only two visits to your dentist. If spaces from missing teeth are left untreated, they can cause your teeth and gums to become increasingly susceptible to tooth decay and gum disease. If you maintain good oral hygiene, your bridges should last as many as ten years or more.

As we get older, many of us find ourselves with teeth that are no longer structurally sound. When the entire surface of your tooth is the problem, but the root system is still intact, a crown might be a viable treatment option. Dental crowns cover the entire outer surface of your affected tooth and add durability, strength, and stability to the tooth. The dentist will make an impression of your affected tooth and then create a specific dental crown. The main advantage of having a porcelain crown is that they are most aesthetically pleasing and match your surrounding teeth. If you require restorative dentistry, speak to your dentist about the best options for your specific oral situation.

Revolutionize Your Smile With Invisalign Treatment

Having a straight, attractive smile is a valuable asset, for both your personal and professional life, though not all of us have perfectly straight teeth.  If you require orthodontic treatment, Invisalign is a breakthrough in orthodontic procedural methods, which completely eliminate the need to use metal wires and brackets.  Traditional metal braces, unlike Invisalign, are not very aesthetically pleasing and they are difficult to clean with their removal often becoming quite tricky. Luckily Invisalign is the alternative to metal braces which offers the same orthodontic benefits that metallic braces provide, without being a cosmetic interference. 

Invisalign invisible braces assist in correcting a broad range of dental and orthodontic issues, such as overly crowded teeth, crossbite, overbite, underbite and widely spaced teeth. What makes Invisalign aligners distinctive is that they are completely translucent, enabling the straightening of teeth whilst being virtually unnoticeable. The Invisalign treatment involves latest computerized technology and three-dimensional modelling to create a series of clear and transparent aligners. The series of custom-made Invisalign aligners are created in accordance with your specific oral situation, for the most effective results. Your aligners exert mild pressure in desired areas and you wear each set of aligners for about two weeks.

The main benefit of using Invisalign as an alternative to metal braces is that they are completely transparent, so no one can tell that you are straightening your teeth. Even before your Invisalign treatment is finished, your tooth alignment will improve and you will begin enjoying the benefits of better smile. Invisalign is also fully removable so you can still enjoy your favourite foods during treatment and smile without holding back. Because there are no metal wires or brackets to cause irritation, Invisalign is completely comfortable. Invisalign’s comfort, removability and invisibility are worth considering when you are choosing what orthodontic treatment to use. With the help of Invisalign you will have a beautiful straight smile.
