Aesthetic dentistry

The modern aesthetic dentistry is a whole complex of different methods, used for improvement of the external view of teeth. The friendly smile, demonstrating flawless white teeth, is an essential element of the positive self-esteem of a person and his attractiveness for other people. Such smile is capable of making any face beautiful – that is why nowadays the field of aesthetic dentistry is so popular.  

Apart from the above-listed methods of dental enamel whitening, the doctors of the Dentistry Department of Oxford Medical clinic also practice other methods for making the dental row beautiful that allow not only getting rid of enamel darkening, but also masking chips or visually rectify the uneven dental row. Such methods include:

1. Composite veneers. This method consists in the application of special polymeric material of the needed color on the tooth (the closest natural shade is selected as per the shade scale). Under exposure to UV radiation, the material hardens, firmly amalgamating with a tooth. The duration of the procedure is 30-60 minutes for each tooth, the shell life is 3-10 years, after which the correction is possible. With the help of bonding, we can solve several problems:

• improve the appearance of teeth;
• restore teeth, affected by tooth decay;
• mask the cracks and chips of enamel;
• close very wide interdental spaces and create protective covering of the root when recessing the gum (recession).

2. Porcelain veneers placement. The dental veneers represent the ultrathin plates (up to 0.5 mm thick), made of porcelain. These plates are glued to the tooth surface with a special two-component cement that allows getting rid of the following defects:

• chips, erosion, enamel abrasion;
• deformation of teeth and disproportion of the dental row;
• undesirable changes of enamel color, which cannot be whitened;
• slight curvatures of one or several teeth.

Except for veneers, there also exist thinner dental on-lays, called the lumineers. You should know that the placement of veneers and lumineers have some contraindications – inflammation of periodontal tissues, bruxism, occlusion disturbance, considerable destruction of front teeth.
