Aesthetic Dentistry
Denison Dental, provide aesthetic dentistry (also referred to as cosmetic dentistry), which is the best way to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
Our aesthetic dentistry services
An increasingly popular form of treatment, aesthetic dentistry includes teeth whitening and veneers, and is often used as a way of enhancing already healthy teeth.
It also acts to restore damaged teeth, as porcelain crowns, composite veneers, and porcelain veneers are all types of aesthetic treatments.
Over time, aesthetic dentistry has grown to incorporate a variety of different treatments, including zirconium bridges, dental implants, teeth whitening, and prosthodontics (dentures).
If you think you might need a dental crown, or would like your old amalgam fillings replaced, visit Denison Dental in Kingston for services you can trust. As part of our aesthetic dental treatment provision, we can fit tooth coloured crowns to achieve a natural look and subtly enhance your smile.
As well as blending in with your existing teeth, crowns will strengthen them and restore their natural shape, while straightening poorly positioned teeth.
You may require a crown for various reasons, some of which are listed below. If you think you might need this treatment, please get in touch with us to schedule an appointment.
Reasons you might need a dental crown:
- A heavily filled tooth where the existing tooth structure is too weak to support the filling
- Fractured teeth
- Root canal treatment – after this procedure, a tooth can be at greater risk of fracturing
- Enhancing aesthetics – improves the appearance of discoloured, malpositioned, and malformed teeth
- Extensive loss of tooth structure due to decay
- Bridges – when a tooth is lost, the adjacent teeth can be crowned and connected with a pontic to replace the missing tooth
- Implants – crowns are placed on top of an implant to replace a missing tooth
At Denison Dental, we offer metal-free crowns that are strong and durable, so you can rest assured that you’re receiving quality care with long-term results.
Dentures from Kingston’s top dental clinic
For anyone who has missing teeth, dentures are a great way to restore your smile. There are two choices available:
- Full dentures: these replace all of your teeth
- Partial dentures: these replace only some missing teeth
Immediate dentures are also an option for patients who can’t be without teeth immediately after having them extracted.
At Denison Dental, we can fit whichever type of dentures are most suitable for your needs, and will discuss this with you before commencing treatment.
How do dentures work?
Made from chrome or acrylic, dentures act as a substitute for your missing teeth. Full dentures fit over your gums, while partial dentures will be supported by remaining teeth. Once fitted, it takes a little time to adjust to your new dentures, but our friendly dentists will advise you on what to do.
Eating, drinking and speaking will become easier as you get accustomed to your dentures and, if well maintained, they can last for several years. Due to natural changes in the mouth over time, they will have to be replaced at various stages of your life to ensure they remain properly fitted.
If you choose the chrome denture framework, you can enjoy a much less bulky denture than the acrylic option. It’s also lighter, doesn’t affect taste when eating, and has less impact on speech.
Please speak to our team if you think dentures may be an option for you.
If you have missing teeth or use dentures, then titanium dental implants may be the ideal solution. Used to hold one or more false teeth in place, dental implants are essentially titanium screws which are fitted into the jawbone to take the place of the tooth root.
When you come to Denison Dental, we’ll assess your oral health and determine whether your jawbone is strong enough to support an implant. If so, we will move forward with treatment.
What is implantology?
Getting a dental implant can be a more effective solution to your dental problems than fitting a bridge or dentures. When you meet with our dentists, we will establish the best type of treatment for your needs and discuss your overall oral health goals.
Implantology offers a more permanent solution to replacing missing teeth and, if cared for properly, can last for many years. Once the implant has been inserted into the jawbone, the false tooth is then fitted on top and anchored in place by the implant. In the same way, implants can be used to stabilise dentures.
Whether you need one missing tooth replaced, or are missing multiple teeth which require implants and false teeth, Denison Dental can provide the service you need. Give us a call if you would like more information about our implantology services and get one step closer to achieving that perfect smile.
At Denison Dental, we offer free consultations for patients who are interested in Invisalign.
What is Invisalign
Invisalign consists of using nearly invisible aligners, which are removable and convenient to use.
Orthodontics in Kingston Tasmania are the most effective way to straighten crooked or malaligned teeth, and are more often used to correct children’s smiles. If you’ve always wanted to improve the look of your smile however, it’s never too late, as orthodontics are also effective for adults.
As well as straightening teeth, orthodontic treatment can also correct an improper bite, such as an overbite or crossbite. By moving or straightening teeth, we can not only make your smile look better, we can also improve the health of your teeth and gums. For excellent Orthodontics in Kingston Tasmania, you cannot go past Denison Dental.
If left uncorrected, problems such as overbites can wear teeth away and put added pressure on the jaw, straining it and causing joint and muscle problems. We recommend early intervention if needed in children.
Revolutionary alignment
At Denison Dental, we have an innovative way of perfecting crooked smiles, as we now use Invisalign. These ‘invisible braces’ offer an efficient and effective way of straightening teeth, without the need for metal braces.
We have the very latest treatment and techniques available in the field of Orthodontics in Kingston Tasmania, so there’s no reason to delay if you would like to enjoy straighter teeth. Get in touch to find out if orthodontics are right for you.
If you’ve always wanted whiter teeth, the teeth whitening treatments at Denison Dental are exactly what you need. Over time, the natural brightness of our smile fades, due to things such as wear and tear, food, drinks, and smoking.
Alternatively, you may brush every day but still have naturally yellow teeth. For a brighter smile, teeth whitening can lighten the shade of your teeth, transforming your appearance with very little inconvenience. Whether your teeth are stained, or you simply want a cleaner smile, whitening treatments are the answer.
Professional teeth whitening
At Denison Dental, we offer our patients in Kingston expert teeth whitening treatments, guaranteed to enhance your smile. Our dentists are all highly skilled in delivering this treatment, which is safe but should only ever be performed by a professional.
While it’s an effective way of lightening your natural tooth colour, it is important to note that teeth whitening is not suitable for false teeth, dentures or crowns.
With brighter, whiter teeth only an appointment away, why not talk to our team about teeth whitening today to achieve your perfect smile?
What are dental veneers?
Dental veneers are very thin porcelain layers or composite that can be fitted onto your front teeth to improve their appearance. If you’ve always wanted to transform your smile and achieve a more streamlined look, veneers are the perfect choice.
Used to create a cleaner and more refined smile, veneers are fitted on top of healthy front teeth which may be discoloured, chipped, or broken. They can also be used as a way of correcting small gaps between teeth, as they create a better outline for the tooth.
Thanks to recent innovations in dentistry, the latest veneers are now much thinner and less invasive, which means your natural teeth are more protected during and after treatment. Traditionally, when veneers are fitted, a small portion of the natural tooth is filed away in order to achieve an exact fit.
You may need dental veneers if you have:
- Heavily restored teeth with discoloured fillings
- Intrinsically stained or discoloured teeth
- Broken or chipped teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Misshapen or crooked teeth
If you’ve always dreamed of having a perfect smile, getting veneers may be the right choice for you, as it is a non-invasive way of achieving the look you desire. With minimal intervention, you can transform your smile and with good oral hygiene, you can maintain it well into the future.
