Cosmetic dentistry involves any dental procedure done mainly to improve a person’s appearance. This is done by improving the shape, size, surface or alignment of teeth, gums, and sometimes even bone. MunjalCarere Dental strongly believes that everyone deserves a winning smile. Hence, we take great care to give our patients the latest and most effective tools and procedures in cosmetic dentistry. At MunjalCarere Dental, your smile is our priority.
The procedure requires the placement of very thin white porcelain veneers on the teeth to improve their shape and surface appearance. They can even fill small gaps between teeth. Veeners are a permanent alternative to tooth-coloured restorations which require periodic maintenance.
BONDING
Bonding is the application of white resin or plastic material to teeth to change the size, shape, or colour of a tooth. Your smile can often be your most important feature as it is the first thing people notice about you. If you'd like your smile brightened or straightened, MunjalCarere Dental is the right cosmetic dentist for you.
Veneers are stain-resistant, even from coffee, tea, or cigarettes. They have a natural appearance and are designed to be long-lasting.
Less invasive than crowns, Veneers can have better colour retention than dental bonding. They can return structural integrity to damaged teeth and possess a translucence similar to that of natural teeth.
The placing of veneers is usually irreversible because it is necessary to remove a small amount of enamel from your teeth to accommodate the shell.
Over time, as teeth become more absorbent, they can become dull and discoloured from things like coffee, tea, wine, berries, cigarettes, medication, excessive fluoride, and normal aging.
Munjal Carere dental offers in-office teeth whitening. This choice is best for healthy, original tooth surfaces, especially if the undesirable colour is yellowish. Zoom2 lightens enamel and dentin. Naturally, it will not effect caps, crowns, or other artificial surfaces, so the colour needs to be carefully monitored.
At Munjal Carere Dental, we use the Zoom2 teeth whitening system – the ideal solution for busy professionals. The process is short (just under an hour). This teeth whitening method is fast, long-lasting, and especially gentle on sensitive teeth and gums. Why's that? Controlled application of a whitening gel in a custom-made tray results in a better outcome with minimal post-operative sensitivity.
ZOOM 2 PROCEDURE
There is a short preparation to protect lips and gums. Then we apply the Zoom2 whitening gel and turn on the Zoom2 light of a certain wave length to increase the power of the gel.
After 15 minutes, you’ll have a short break, followed by two more 15-minute sessions.
During your sessions at MunjalCarere Dental, you may listen to music, or read your favourite book.
INVISALIGN®
Invisalign® clear braces are non-metal alternatives to traditional braces, with no uncomfortable brackets or wires. Like traditional braces, the Invisalign® system can help improve issues such as crooked, overlapping, crowded teeth, wide spaces, over-bite, under-bite, and cross-bite. Invisalign® is a discreet option for those who are looking to address these issues.
Unlike traditional braces, they are transparent and are removable for brushing, flossing, eating, or even taking a break to attend a special occasion.
HOW DOES INVISALIGN® WORK?
Invisalign® uses a series of clear, removable aligners to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets. Each aligner is custom-made for your teeth.
Each set of aligners is worn for about 2 weeks. They are easily removed, only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you change to each new set of aligners, your teeth will gradually move closer to an ideal situation.
HOW LONG DOES THE INVISALIGN PROCESS TAKE?
Depending upon the complexity of the case, it may take anywhere between 6 months to more than a year to get the desired outcome.
OTHER BENEFITS OF INVISALIGN
You can enjoy all your favourite foods, since you won’t be wearing your aligners while you eat.
x-rays, cleanings, and some other procedures previously not possible while wearing metal braces are not prevented by Invisalign®.
Since aligners are upgraded every two weeks, the process is comfortable, gradual and painless.
Dental bonding is a technique that helps repair decayed areas of your teeth with a composite resin. The composite resin is available in a variety of shades to match the colour of your teeth.
WHAT CAN BE FIXED?
- The size, shape, or color of teeth may be improved.
- Restoration of chipped teeth.
- A short tooth may be lengthened to go with its mates.
- Gaps between the teeth may be eliminated.
Dental bonding is also a less-invasive alternative to crowns. Bonding makes possible the re-contouring of your whole smile. It can be done in one appointment when time is a concern.
HOW IS DENTAL BONDING DONE?
The dentist prepares your teeth and then applies the bonding agent to repair defects. After application, the composite material is exposed to a light of a certain wavelength, which cures and hardens it. At that point, the area is sanded, buffed, and polished to appear and feel like the surface of your natural teeth.
ADVANTAGES OF DENTAL BONDING
Although the materials used for dental bonding are not as durable as the materials used for veneers or crowns, there is the advantage that the bonding procedure can usually be completed in one appointment.
Another difference is that bonding can be accomplished without the services of a separate dental laboratory.
With a relatively simple procedure, minor defects can be corrected. The material blends in with your natural teeth, so there is no interruption in your smile.
