What is Cosmetic Dentistry in Adelaide?

• Different types of people need different types of
  dentistry. Some people need just simple fillings,
  others require crowns and bridges. Here are some
  photos to give ideas of some different types of
  treatments. (We have changed the names of the
  patients below for privacy reasons).

New Porcelain Veneers

• Susan had old and stained veneers with unsightly
  fillings around the veneers. We removed the old
  veneers using our laser which preserves the tooth
  structure underneath. The temporary veneers in
  the middle photo look terrific and are what Susan
  walked out with at the end of that first visit.

• The final photo shows the finished 6 veneers
  which are tremendous and a huge improvement on
  Susan's original appearance. This type of work is
  why we go to work each day. You can imagine how
  happy she was with the result!

Closing Gaps

• Rita has gaps in her lower teeth.
• We have placed bonded bridges on the lower teeth
  to fill in the missing teeth which detracted from
  her smile. A very simple procedure which involved
  some taking moulds or impressions of the lower
  teeth and then having the new porcelain teeth
  created. It was all finished in a week and a
  half.

• Ray wanted to improve his appearance. His front
  teeth were worn, brown and there were ugly gaps
  at the front. We placed bridges on the front
  teeth to rebuild his smile and close those gaps.
  This covered the brown teeth and changed the
  shape to a more pleasing shape. It is completely
  different in the before and after photos! He was
  much happier with his new smile and so was Ray's
  wife.

Smile Makeover 

• Sometimes there are many things wrong in a smile.
  It can be missing teeth, it can be the shape of
  the teeth or the colour. In the first photo below
  Jane has a denture replacing several missing
  teeth. The blue arrows highlight the denture
  teeth. We lightened her teeth prior to the photo
  and you can see the lower teeth are now lighter
  than the upper teeth.

• In the photo on the right we have removed the
  denture and you can see the difference that these
  gaps make to her smile.
• In the photo on the left we have removed the
  denture and you can see the difference that these
  gaps make to her smile.                           
                       
• In the makeover we try and bring the colour of
  the upper teeth closer to these lower teeth. A
  great final result!

After Smile Makeover Another Smile Makeover

• This lady wanted to get rid of her dentures and
  fix her smile. She thought her teeth were too
  uneven and needed a big change.

14

• It is important to assess crucial points of a
  smile before starting such as the lip line, where
  the alignment of the teeth are and what options
  are available to improve your smile there we aim
  to get rid of a denture that was ill fitting and
  provide a beautiful smile.Here is the finished
  result, a dramatic difference to the variety of
  colours and shapes above. The teeth are in
  harmony with the lip line, the colour is pleasing
  to the eye and the shapes of the teeth are nicely
  curved and reflect well on the patients overall
  appearance.

A New Smile with Fillings.

• Not everyone has an award winning smile but
  everyone wants to improve how they look. Mark had
  let himself go through too many sugary drinks and
  not brushing his teeth. As they started to look
  bad, he stopped brushing altogether. Mark wanted
  to fix his front teeth and get back to looking
  and feeling good. We removed the decay and then
  rebuilt the teeth using composite resin (white
  filling material). The end result is dramatic and
  has given Mark his self confidence back.

Another Smile Makeover using Fillings

• Sarah had worn her teeth down over a long period
  of time. We rebuilt her front teeth using
  fillings to gain the increase in length of her
  teeth that you see in the after photo on the
  right.   
• Michael had quite severe marks on his front
  teeth. He wanted them improved but had a limited
  budget. We put many fillings on his front teeth
  to make them look younger and whiter.
• Toby wanted his rough teeth look improved
  quickly. We placed several fillings on his front
  teeth and reshaped them. The difference is
  dramatic.

Can new dentures fix my teeth?

• Sometimes the problem is not the teeth but an ill
  fitting denture. Helen was disappointed with the
  gaps in her front teeth. We made a new denture
  for her and the gap was closed. A simple
  procedure that improved her smile.
