Dental Bonding

This technique allows build-up of fragile / brittle / Enamel Chipped teeth, thus adding to their strength and beauty. Tooth coloured composites are added /bonded over discoloured, chipped or spaced teeth matching the shade, translucency and texture of existing (adjoining) teeth.

2. Smile Designing

 

Smile designing is done in case of teeth spacing, overlapping, etc. It creates a beautiful smile with minimal changes to existing teeth.

 

Enamel shaping, veneers (front visible site), laminates, and fixed teeth laminates in place of missing teeth. This is done to add aesthetics to otherwise healthy teeth and gums. Aim is to give natural, beautiful and confident smile. Just because teeth are white does not mean they have cosmetic appearance. Giving natural shade to teeth is more important. This is a procedure which involves proper gum contouring (in case of gummy smile), remodeling of teeth and giving them the most natural shade so that it flows and blends with adjoining teeth and supporting structures.

6. Dental Implants


A missing tooth can be replaced with dental implant rather than a fixed partial denture. A small titanium screw is fixed into the jaw and the crown or tooth is fitted. In due course of time, the screw becomes fused (osseointegration) with the jaw bone. Thus giving it an appearance and functioning as a natural tooth.
