Cosmetic Dentistry in Essex


The world of cosmetic dentistry continues to grow in leaps and bounds, becoming more accessible and more encompassing with every passing year. Many of the original concepts are the same, though tools, techniques, research, and materials have advanced far above what they used to be. With these rising technologies comes a rising cost for services, though statistically cosmetic surgery is more affordable now than it was thirty years ago. if you are considering one of the many options available to you today, a long and honest consultation with a proven professional will help you to discern what will and will not be suitable for your situation.

Cosmetic dentistry involves any condition or procedure that is not based on the health of your teeth, gums, or other oral parts. When a person presents with strong, healthy teeth, but is unhappy with their shape, appearance, alignment, or other aspects, this is when cosmetic dentistry comes into play. The most popular form of treatment along these lines is whitening, wherein the patient will opt for a procedure to improve the color of the teeth. This procedure is not for everyone, including those with sensitive, corroded, decayed, or otherwise weakened tooth enamel. Whitening weakens the enamel further and can be rather painful for those with preexisting issues.

Contouring has also become a popular alternative to other more costly and extensive procedures, such as braces and porcelain veneers. Those with overlapping, crooked, uneven, jagged, or otherwise unshapely natural teeth may opt to have the enamel filed down or shaved on some of them, while having a bonding agent applied to others, evening out and shaping the natural teeth so that veneers and braces are not necessary. This procedure has its risks, as often the dentin can be exposed and further troubles are possible. In all, this is considered as a safe and timely alternative.

Bonding plays a part in the cosmetic dentistry procedure described above, while other common treatments include dental bridges, veneers, and implants. The bridge is formed to fit between two existing porcelain or enamel teeth in order to create a missing tooth. Implants are perhaps one of the most invasive, though permanent, cosmetic elements performed today, entailing the screwing of manufactured teeth to the jaw in place of lost or removed natural teeth. Veneers are the most expensive cosmetic treatment for the teeth, but are also extremely dependable, durable, and natural looking.

The Truth about Cosmetic Dentures.


Cosmetic dentures may not always seem like the best option for most patients, as this denotes the permanent loss of all natural teeth at the upper jaw, lower jaw, or both. Many who are forced to think about this type of solution have been dealing with painful and humiliating tooth loss for years, and have concluded with the help of their dentist that full cosmetic dentures are the most cost effective, permanent, and painless solution available. With today’s advances in dental procedures and the building of false teeth, however, cosmetic dentures are no longer the frightening blob that used to sit in a cup on your grandmothers bathroom vanity.


Most people who are contemplating the fitting of dentures will need to go through a heavy extracting process before the healing and fitting procedures can begin. Most dentists will schedule one extraction appointment, offering heavy to full sedation throughout the procedure, and the patient will undergo the surgical removal of all remaining teeth and/or pieces of the natural structures. All nerves, roots, and live parts of the natural teeth will be extracted completely, leaving a pain free and clean area that will eventually support a new set of cosmetic dentures. This can be a scary thought to many patients, but once the initial surgery woes have gone, most patients are relieved of pains and aches that have plagued them for years.

Most dentists offer options to the cosmetic denture patient as far as the crafting and developing of their new teeth. Within reason, of course, patients are able to choose the new teeth that they would like to wear for the next twenty plus years. There will be a line drawn by your dentist in respect to extreme skeletal structures or other such limitations, but for the most part, the new cosmetic dentures that you end up with will be as close to your dream teeth as you ever dreamed possible.

There are also new methods of creating the teeth which offer a multidimensional build to the finish product, causing slight translucency changes, layers, and shades of color which mimic natural teeth very closely. In this way, it is guaranteed that the only people who will know you wear dentures are the people that you tell. With the help and guidance of your dentist, you will find that the process of gaining cosmetic dentures can be exciting and rewarding once the initial disappointment wears off.

Deep Bleaching Gives You A Super Bright Smile!


Deep Bleaching teeth is a technique to give you extreme tooth whitening that takes a certain period of time ie it is not an instant fix! It takes a certain amount of commitment on your behalf that will ultimately give you a dazzling white smile.

During the first dental appointment, impressions are taken and then sent to a highly specialised laboratory who make transparent , comfortable and especially self sealing so you dont have to worry about them falling out of your mouth during the night.

We advise you to wear them for at least for 14 nights straight until you see us again at our dental office.

These trays have small chambers or reservoirs pouches beside each tooth to catch and hold excess whitening gel thru the night.

The first 2 weeks may not give you the ideal result to start with but what you must understand is that you are getting oxygen into the teeth via the enamel before your final dental office visit.

You will still have to use the deep bleaching trays after the visit to give you the ultimate bright white smile in essex!

Men have square teeth to give them a masculine look whereas women should have rounder teeth to give them more of a feminine look.

Invisalign Braces in Essex-The Advantages and Disadvantages.


Modern day dentistry is changing with new devices like Invisalign which help to straighten your teeth very comfortably and easily. Many patients often want to know why they should pick Invisalign over traditional metal Braces or Brackets. I hope this helps you in making an informed decision.
The advantages of Invisalign are as follows.
1. Invisalign Braces are transparent devices or plastic aligners which means that no one will know that you are wearing them! Cool Eh??
Compared to the Ugly Betty Braces that some wear, the whole world and his dog will know you are wearing them. Yuk! Notice the term Invisalign: the ‘ Invis ‘ stands for Invisible.

2. Invisalign Braces are very effective. Invisalign braces are made of high quality plastic which produce enough tensile pressure to move your teeth very quickly as each aligner is changed every 2 weeks so that these forces are never reduced.

3. You can eat whatever you want as you can take them out whilst chewing food. There is nothing you cant masticate as the aligners are removed from your mouth.

4. The Invisalign aligners make the perfect shields to whiten your teeth as they are so closely fitting with high quality plastic that the peroxide can do its magic on your enamel and give you a sparkling white smile.

The Only Disavantage of Invisalign is that it is expensive due to the technological advances made by the company in aligning teeth. However, with interest free options now available at our practice we can make it a financial viable option to you.
