Cosmetic dentistry

Patients are often concerned about visible fillings in the incisor area or teeth that have been painted over. Less commonly, patients dislike gaps between the teeth or misaligned teeth.

In this case, aesthetic tooth filling with high-end restorative materials or prostheses (veneers or crowns) can help.

There are several treatment options for aesthetic restoration of the incisors:

Composite or sealable material

The most cost-effective material for improving the aesthetics of incisors. Today, our clinic uses very high-end composite materials, so even with these materials today, amazing aesthetic results can be achieved. The new generation of composite materials also does not discolour over time, but unlike the above-mentioned types of restorations, the composite material may lose a little of its shine over time, but this can be easily regained by simply polishing the restorations created – usually, for convenience, patients combine polishing with a check-up or annual dental hygiene. It should also be mentioned that composite restorations have another major advantage that the above types of restorations do not – they can be created in one visit and there is no need to book multiple appointments.

Using a modern light-curing material, it is possible to quickly and aesthetically restore or improve the shape of existing teeth.

Dental veneers

The veneers themselves are ceramic plates that are fixed to the tooth with a special cement. Veneers can be used to change both the shape and the colour of your teeth. Ceramic veneers do not change colour over time and are durable. This type of restoration gives the most aesthetic and predictable results in the long term, but to restore teeth with veneers, the teeth must be relatively healthy to begin with – only small fillings or small carious lesions are acceptable. It should be noted that the final result is achieved only after several visits – first the diagnosis, then the teeth grinding and the fabrication and fixation of the temporary veneers, and then the fabrication and cementation of the permanent veneers.

Crowns

Zirconia or ceramic crowns in the incisal area are most often chosen when there is no possibility to place veneers – when there are existing large fillings or extensive carious lesions and there is little healthy tooth tissue left. Like veneers, crowns provide a very aesthetic end result, are durable and do not change their original colour over time. The stages of crown fabrication are very similar to those for veneers, so crowns are not fabricated in a single visit.

Dental onlay

Dental onlays are restorations used to repair and strengthen a damaged tooth.

Dental onlays are custom-made restorations, individual to each patient, made from materials such as porcelain or composite. They are designed to cover part of the tooth surface, for example in cases where the decay is too large to be replaced with a filling, but not large enough for a crown.

Onlays are made to restore the structure of the tooth – to strengthen it and preserve function. It is a conservative form of tooth treatment that preserves as much tooth tissue as possible (compared to crowns).

We make onlays from composite materials and ceramics.

The main advantage is that onlays require minimal tooth preparation, thus preserving as much of the tooth tissue as possible.
