Cosmetic Dentistry

Inlays and Onlays are the  minimally invasive alternative to a traditional crown. Using modern techniques ,clinicians are able to  preserve more of the natural tooth structure while still providing a durable restoration.

 Made from materials like porcelain or composite resin, onlays are strong and long-lasting , meaning that you can continue to enjoy eating the foods that you love!

 Onlays are bespoke , meaning that they are designed  to match the color and shape of each individuals natural teeth, offering a seamless, highly aesthetic result.

By restoring  the function of a damaged or decayed tooth,  better chewing and speaking abilities are enabled through this method of restoration.

 The procedure for placing onlays typically requires less drilling of the tooth during preperation as compared to crowns, making Inlays and Onlays a more conservative option, meaning that more of your natural healthy tooth is preserved.

 Onlays help prevent further decay or damage to the tooth, as they cover and protect compromised areas, adding additional strength to the affected tooth.

Enhanced Smile Aesthetics: Softening lines around the mouth and lips can complement dental treatments like veneers or implants, creating a more youthful and natural appearance.

Improved Facial Symmetry: By reducing wrinkles and fine lines, line softening can help restore balance and harmony to the face, which can enhance the overall look of a patient's smile.

Non-invasive: Line softening procedures, like Botox or dermal fillers, are minimally invasive with little downtime, making them an appealing option for patients seeking aesthetic improvement without surgery.

Boosts Patient Confidence: Smoothing lines and wrinkles can contribute to a refreshed, rejuvenated look, helping patients feel more confident in their appearance.

These benefits can enhance both the dental and cosmetic experience for patients, making them feel more satisfied with their overall appearance.

Biomimetic dentistry is a treatment approach that attempts to preserve as much intact tooth structure as possible whilst restoring the function, aesthetic and biomechanics of a natural tooth. For example, when a tooth requires a crown or Inlay/Onlay to protect it from fracturing, rather than create mechanical retention for the restoration by cutting away healthy, intact tooth structure, we can simply bond or adhere the restoration to whatever intact tooth structure is left, preserving as much tooth structure as possible and prolonging the lifespan of the affected tooth.

Composite Bonding

Composite bonding is a versatile and minimally invasive cosmetic dental treatment used to improve the appearance of your teeth.

In this procedure, a tooth-colored resin is carefully applied to the surface of a tooth to repair chips, gaps, discoloration, or misalignment. The resin is then shaped to match the natural contours of your tooth and hardened using a special light.

The result is a seamless, natural-looking smile that enhances both the aesthetics and function of your teeth.
