-gum recession which is not due to periodontal disease can be replaced and strengthened with this procedure
Bone augmentation/grafting
Ridge augmentation
-whenever someone has limited amount of bone intraorally prior to implant placement bone can be surgically grafted for proper implant placement and esthetics
Sinus elevation
-the sinus is an airpocket located under the facial bones above the back teeth. In most cases tooth loss results
in bone recession leaving very little bone below the sinus which necessitates a sinus elevation to replace the missing bone. The membrane which lines the sinus is gently elevated thru a surgical process creating a safe environment for graft placement. After healing (usu.6 mos) implants can easily be placed in more ideal locations.
Cosmetic/esthetic makeovers
-laminates/veneers that can create a “Hollywood smile”
-metal free restorations (inlays, onlays, zircon crowns
Cosmetic dentistry
Laminates/veneers
You no longer have to be a millionaire or Hollywood celebrity to look like one.
Veneers are wafer thin shells of tooth coloured material (ceramic) that are “cemented” to the front surface of teeth to improve their cosmetic appearance. Veneers are typically used to cover stained, misaligned or chipped and broken teeth. They are the treatment of choice used to create the “celebrity smile”.A patient who is seeking a new smile can have a rejuvenated look in a matter of two appointments with the help of porcelain laminates.
