Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic Dentistry
A confident smile is important for us all and cosmetic dentistry can address visible issues that make us self-conscious like stained, chipped and gapped teeth. Cosmetic Dentistry refers to dental treatments that improve the appearance of a patient’s teeth, gums, bite or smile. It primarily focuses on improvement in colour, position, shape, size, alignment and overall smile appearance. There a number of different treatments but not all of these treatments are best suited to all patients. At Kincaid Dental centre our Dentist will be able to advise the most suitable options based on your current concerns, desired outcomes and budget.
Crowns
When a tooth is cracked, decayed or damaged, a crown may need to be fitted to protect and preserve the remaining natural tooth. A crown is a definitive covering that fits over the original tooth and address aesthetic needs, restores tooth function and enhances the overall health of your mouth. Crowns can be made of tooth coloured porcelain
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells of ceramic tooth coloured material, which are bonded to the front of your teeth to change their shape, size, alignment, or colour. This procedure requires little or no anaesthesia and can be the ideal choice for improving the appearance of the front teeth. Porcelain veneers look completely natural and can be used to correct the following:
- Gaps between teeth
- Broken or chipped teeth
- Unsightly, stained or washed-out fillings
- Permanently stained or discoloured teeth that can’t be bleached
- Crooked teeth
Porcelain veneers can be bonded to just one or two teeth to correct specific problems, or they can be used on all your teeth to give you a dazzling smile.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments in Australia. It is a safe and effective method to significantly alter the appearance of your teeth to give you a brighter, whiter smile. Teeth may become discoloured due to surface staining caused by tea, coffee, tobacco or wine. Teeth may also discolour after root canal therapy, trauma or the placement of dental braces. At Kincaid Medical and Dental Centre we offer take home whitening kits. Before you have your teeth whitened, we strongly recommend you schedule an appointment for a Consultation. Your consultation will enable us to advise you on the most suitable tooth whitening treatment for your teeth, and the results that can be expected when whitening your teeth. The effectiveness and final result will vary for each individual, and it is essential that your teeth are properly assessed to give you the whitest result possible
