Crowns

Crowns are used to restore both anterior and posterior teeth that have been broken or are at high risk of doing so due to oversized fillings or fractures. There are a variety of materials available to construct these, either porcelain bonded to metal or all-ceramic.

Bridges

Bridges are fixed, non-removable prosthetics constructed to replace one or more missing teeth. Either one or both of the teeth adjacent to the space are used to anchor the bridge, restoring function as well as aesthetics. Like crowns, bridges can be made from porcelain bonded to metal or all-ceramic materials. Because this involves the adjacent teeth, more people are opting for Dental Implants as an alternative, rather than working healthy teeth to support a bridge.

Veneers

Porcelain laminate veneers are, quite literally, a shell covering placed over the front surface of the teeth to enhance or correct their appearance. Whether to close spaces, increase size, change colour or straighten teeth, veneers are the most conservative way of bringing about a dramatic change to the appearance of your teeth.

Bonding

Composite resin bonding is used to repair fractures, change shape, close spaces, and laminate (or cover) teeth to enhance their appearance, as a simpler alternative to veneers. These procedures are completed in one appointment with little or no discomfort.

Bleaching

Teeth whitening is one of the simplest and most rewarding treatments we offer. At Dental Solutions, we use Boutique Whitening: a custom-made tray is fabricated to fit the surfaces of your teeth, then worn at night filled with a bleaching agent over a course that typically runs around two to three weeks. Some patients space treatment out a little longer if they experience sensitivity, which your hygienist or dentist can help you manage. The results are impressive, with little or no irritation to the teeth when properly fitted and controlled. The lightening effect lasts several months and can be topped up when needed.

If you've found us through a whitening search specifically, you can book an initial whitening assessment directly with our hygienist, without needing a full check-up first. See Teeth Whitening: What Works (and What Doesn't) for more detail, including the legal and safety side of professional whitening.

Dentures

Dentures, whether full or partial, are a removable solution for replacing multiple or completely missing teeth. This is the treatment of choice if there are insufficient teeth to support a bridge. Dental Implants are increasingly becoming an alternative to dentures. If dentures are the right solution for you, there's no need to have teeth that look false. With careful planning, even full dentures can be made to look natural.
