How City Dental Leeds Replace a Full Set of Teeth in One Day

Monday, July 24th, 2017

shutterstock_227755375Modern dentistry never ceases to amaze our patients and one service that never fails to impress is same-day tooth replacement. Did you know that we can replace a full set of teeth in just one day? If you’re missing your natural teeth or you’re looking for an alternative to traditional dentures, All-on-4 could be the solution you’ve been waiting for.

The ins and outs of All-on-4

All-on-4 is a same-day implant system, which enables us to replace an entire set of teeth in a single day. This system utilises four implants to secure a full arch of teeth. Two implants are placed at the back of the mouth and two sit at the front. Traditionally, the implants are placed at a 90-degree angle, but with All-n-4 the implants are the rear of the jaw are placed at a 45-degree angle. The placement of the implants takes full advantage of the strongest bone tissue in the jaw and enhances the functionality of the denture.

Usually, implant treatment takes several months, but All-on-4 patients can benefit from instant results, as the new teeth can be fitted on the same day as the dental implants.

Is All-on-4 the right choice for me?

If you’ve experienced problems with dentures in the past or you have a large number of missing teeth and you’re looking for an instant solution, which will provide you with a healthy, natural looking smile for many years to come, All-on-4 could be an excellent choice for you. To find out if this is a good treatment option for you, we recommend booking a consultation. This is an informal appointment, which gives our dentists a chance to have a look at your mouth and ascertain whether this could be a solution worth considering. It also gives you the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about the system and what treatment entails.

Did you know Veneers could Transform your Smile Dramatically?

Thursday, June 1st, 2017

shutterstock_571312708In this day and age, we’re bombarded by images of people with perfect smiles. Whether you’re watching a film or browsing your news feed on Instagram, there are flawless sets of pearly whites everywhere. In the past, veneers were associated with celebrities, but today, they are accessible to all. If you dream of a bright white, beautiful smile, we can make your dreams come true, right here in the centre of Leeds.

About veneers

Veneers are tooth-shaped pieces of incredibly fine laminated ceramic material (usually porcelain), which are fixed onto the surfaces of the natural teeth. Each veneer is fitted individually, and the outcome is a stunning new smile. As well as porcelain veneers, we also offer Componeers, which are a cheaper option. Componeers can be bonded directly onto the teeth and they are composed of a mixture of materials, including composite. If you’re worried about the cost of porcelain veneers and you want results fast, Componeers may be the best solution for you.

Veneers are very versatile and they can be used to treat a multitude of imperfections. Very few people have naturally perfect teeth, but you don’t have to let chips, worn surfaces, discolouration or gaps between your teeth get you down. With veneers, we can transform your smile dramatically and make you feel much more confident when your pearly whites are on show.

What does veneer treatment involve?

If you’re interested in veneers, the first thing we recommend is booking a consultation. During your consultation, we’ll give you all the information you could possibly need about veneers and answer any questions you have. We’ll also examine your teeth and have a chat with you about what your dream outcome would be. We can also show you some images of smiles we have created using veneer treatment. If you choose to go ahead and have veneers, we can usually complete treatment in two sessions. During the first, we’ll prepare your teeth and create impressions, and when your veneers are ready, we’ll invite you back and secure them onto your teeth.

Did you Know we can Sculpt your Perfect Smile with Dental Bonding?

Monday, May 29th, 2017

shutterstock_386744668Have you ever wondered if there’s a simple and affordable solution out there for minor problems like misshapen teeth or chips? Sometimes, people assume that cosmetic dentistry will out be out of their financial reach or it’ll take too much time or involve too much pain. In reality, there are plenty of treatments, which may be a lot cheaper and more straightforward than you’d expect. One of our most impressive treatment options is dental bonding, a single-session treatment, which can transform your smile with no pain at all.

What is dental bonding?

Dental bonding, also known as composite or cosmetic bonding, is a cosmetic dental procedure, which is capable of sculpting and reshaping the teeth to create a beautiful, flawless smile. If you have chipped teeth, worn surfaces, uneven teeth or misshapen teeth, this could be the solution for you.

The bonding process takes around an hour and there is no pain involved at all, so you won’t need any injections or anaesthetic. Your dentist will use material called dental composite to sculpt your smile and carry out running repairs to teeth are not shaped perfectly. At room temperature, composite has a similar consistency to putty, and this enables your dentist to shape and mould it. They will use their skill and experience to reshape the teeth, making minor adjustments that will make a massive difference to the overall look of your smile. Once the composite is in the right place, your dentist will use a curing light to make it firm.

Is dental bonding the right choice for me?

Dental bonding is an effective treatment for patients who have minor aesthetic imperfections. It is a quick, affordable and painless procedure, which can be used as an alternative to veneer treatment. If you like the sound of bonding, and you’d like to find out more, call us and book an appointment today!

City Dental Leeds offers choices in smile makeover treatments to bring out stunning looks and to create attractive appeal.

Cosmetic dental treatments available

Cosmetic dentistry treatments such as porcelain veneers aim to improve dental function in an aesthetically pleasing way. Porcelain veneers are an alternative to invisible braces and teeth whitening. Mildly misaligned teeth may be straightened with dental veneers and tooth discolouration may be masked for a beautiful-looking smile.

Smile makeovers are available throughout the year for that perfect impression at special events and meetings. Where once treatments such as dental veneers were only an option for celebrities, smile makeovers are now available for all who desire to bring out the best in their expression.

Custom-made of ceramic porcelain, the veneers fit over the teeth like wafer-thin shells. Each person chooses the shade and shape of their veneers for their unique smile design. Using the latest technology, porcelain veneers are sculpted to cover damaged or discoloured teeth, fill in tooth gaps, and neatly align teeth that are visible when we smile.

Smile makeovers improve tooth quality and refresh our expressions. The boost in confidence from a smile makeover may be life-changing. Get in touch with us to see before and after results of a smile makeover so that you can see the difference porcelain veneers can make to your look.

Magical Makeovers for Your Smile!

529808_blogMost people agree that nothing is more attractive in another person than a beautiful smile and with our amazing cosmetic, restorative and orthodontic treatments, we can create stunning smiles and cater for all your cosmetic dental needs. Being unhappy with your smile can affect your confidence and hold you back, but we are ready to transform your smile and give you the confidence to achieve your dreams!

Our smile makeovers

Smile makeovers are cosmetic treatments that work together to produce a perfect smile. With a smile makeover, we use a sequence of treatments of your choosing to create your ideal result. Our clients have different needs and therefore every makeover is slightly different. Some of our patients need purely cosmetic work, while others require restorative or tooth straightening treatment. We can also provide tooth replacement treatment to fill gaps in the smile.

We offer personalised treatment and treat every patient as an individual. We work together with our patients during the planning phase to decide which treatments to use and design the new smile.

Treatments we can offer as part of a smile makeover include the following: porcelain crowns and veneers, white fillings, teeth whitening, cosmetic bonding, gum reshaping, cosmetic braces, dental implants and dental bridges. The treatments you select will depend on what you want from your smile makeover, the look and condition of your teeth and also your budget and the time you want to devote to treatment.

How long does a smile makeover take?

The length of treatment varies hugely according to the types of treatments you choose. Some treatments only take an hour, while others can take several months. When you see your dentist they will chat to you about the different options and they can take your time restraints into consideration when making recommendations. If you need braces or are interested in dental implant treatment as part of your makeover, the treatment may take months, while other cosmetic services tend to be much quicker.
