Summer is upon us where we can bask in the warmth of the sun rays and enjoy the sound of birds among blossomed trees. It is a time of relief from winter where we go out smiling and show off our bodies in fashionable clothing.

While some of us may have already prepared for summer by losing some weight and doing exercise to firm our bodies, others may have had a smile makeover to enhance their natural beauty. Devonshire Square Dental Studio in the heart of London 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.

Patients In London Start The New Year With A New Smile

January 10th, 2013

If your smile is something that has always got you down for one reason or another such as not being white enough or not looking as perfect as everyone else’s, then why not treat yourself to a smile makeover and start the new year as you mean to go on, with a fantastic smile.

Smile makeover treatment

A smile makeover is where veneers are used to transform your current smile into a dazzling one than no one will forget. Veneers are thin sheets of porcelain, which are shaped and coloured to look exactly like regular teeth, that are placed on top of current teeth to make them look that whole lot better, and give you that little confidence boost that you may be lacking.

Porcelain veneers

Veneers themselves are an incredibly popular treatment in today’s society, with many Hollywood actors and actresses, models and a whole plethora of other stars having them done to give them those dazzling red carpet smiles.

The procedure itself is very straightforward and requires you to have small pieces of your tooth’s surface structure removed to create space for the new veneers. After this your dentist will take impressions of your teeth so your veneers can be created to your exact requirements. Whilst you wait for these custom made veneers to make their way to you, you will be fitted with temporary ones. Once yours are ready these will be removed and yours will be applied and bonded to your teeth using a strong adhesive.

Veneers are also helpful for other dental problems like chipped, discoloured, crooked or gapped teeth.

All this is done in just two sessions and they can last for several years, your dentist will advise you on how long you can expect them to last. However they can get damaged just like normal teeth, but small issues can be repaired. If you are interested in our cosmetic dentistry treatments then contact the team at Devonshire Square Dental Studio in the heart of London and get on the road to a whiter, brighter smile.

Overhaul Your Teeth and Gain New Confidence With A Smile Makeover In London

October 13th, 2012

If you have teeth in your smile zone that are discoloured or misaligned, they may be improved with porcelain veneers for the ultimate smile makeover. Celebrities and renowned personalities gain that star-like quality through having smile makeovers, such as with porcelain veneers. Nowadays, smile makeovers are affordable and accessible for all to have glam appeal and a perfect smile. Let’s look more closely at one of the smile makeover options available.

Porcelain veneers

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin laminated porcelain shields custom-made to fit over an individual’s teeth matching size, shape and colour. Any dental irregularities, such as tooth discolouration and misalignment, may be masked with porcelain veneers for a sculpted finish.

Investing in the latest technologies, materials and techniques, cosmetic dentists are offering individuals choices in porcelain veneers to correct minor tooth chips, wear, crookedness and gaps. Made to look just like natural teeth, porcelain veneers are bonded to existing tooth surface after minimal preparation for a flawless look.

Fine and thin in design, porcelain veneers are remarkably durable, giving added strength to the tooth surface by protecting the underlying dental enamel. Veneers are similar to normal teeth in that they may wear or become damaged. One or more veneers may be fitted depending on needs, and are easily replaced.

Teeth are initially prepared and dental impressions with images are taken so that the porcelain veneers may be made to perfectly fit over existing teeth. Temporary veneers are fitted while the permanent veneers are made bespoke for a person’s needs. When ready, the temporary veneers are removed and the permanent ones are bonded to underlying teeth using dental adhesive. After approximately two weeks, the dentist evaluates the veneers and polishes them for final finish.

Individuals benefit from the appearance-enhancing quality of veneers, boosting confidence with a beautiful smile. Porcelain veneers are usually the smile makeover of choice over composite white filler and crowns.

Patients From London Are Treated To A Hollywood Smile

August 18th, 2012

It’s that easy to have sparkly teeth. The treatment is named in reference to our favourite Hollywood celebrities who always seem to be sporting these almost unnaturally healthy smiles which gleam with more shine than the flash of the paparazzi camera. In fact, it’s getting harder and harder to spot a celebrity who doesn’t have a perfect set of teeth these days. Why? Because there are so many treatments available nowadays to enhance, correct and perfect a person’s teeth, not only for oral health reasons but for aesthetic reasons too. Treatments include teeth whitening procedures, laser gum sculpting, invisible braces and much more but we’re going to look at veneers in particular.

Veneer treatment for that Hollywood smile

A veneer is a wafer thin almost shield like covering made from composite plastic or porcelain. As with other composite materials, a composite veneer can be colour matched using a shade guide to fit in with the rest of the teeth so that you don’t end up with impossibly white teeth that look cartoonish. It’s no good after all, having a perfect smile if it doesn’t even look remotely natural as this will just detract from the intended results. Unfortunately they tend to stain more than Porcelain veneers.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are also stronger and much more durable and therefore last longer than the composite veneers. Because they need replacing less, this means they could end up saving you money in the long run, despite costing more. Porcelain veneers last between 5-10 years compared to the drastically shorter 1-2 year life span of the composites. It is important to note that not all dentists specialise in cosmetic dentistry so it’s important that if you want veneers and the perfect Hollywood smile to find a practice where cosmetic dentistry is the main forte. We offer Hollywood smiles at Devonshire Square Dental Clinic in London so do contact us for more information.

Patients in London Get a Smile Makeover for Beautiful Teeth

July 14th, 2012

A smile makeover can be used for a number of reasons, it can be to instantly give the appearance of straight, white teeth or it can be used to cover gaps between teeth. In fact there is a wide range of situations in which a smile makeover can be beneficial.

What treatments are used?

The most common treatment used during a smile makeover is the addition of porcelain veneers. Veneers are wafer thin sections of porcelain that are attached to the front of the existing tooth, or teeth. They will be carefully made so that they blend in with the natural teeth. In addition to having veneers fitted it is common for the natural teeth to be whitened in order to create a healthier, whiter smile.

What problems can veneers be used to cover?

Veneers can be used to cover a wide range of complaints such as chipped or broken teeth and can be used on heavily stained teeth. They can also be used on worn or crooked teeth as well as being able to hide gaps between teeth.

How long does the smile makeover take?

On average a smile makeover will require two visits to the dentist. This will usually be a week or so apart. During the first visit the dentist will prepare the teeth and take an impression of the mouth in order to create the veneers. In some cases temporary veneers will be fitted at the first visit to protect the teeth, however it is not always required. The second visit will be when the permanent veneers are fitted.

How long do veneers last?

Veneers just like normal teeth can chip or break however in most cases they are expected to last for 5 to 7 years.

Who is Most Suitable for the Inman Aligner in Central London?

May 17th, 2012

The Inman Aligner is an orthodontic treatment used to straighten the front teeth and is available to all patients in Central London. The treatment is relatively straightforward: after a consultation, a mould is taken of your teeth, and from this the desired movement of the teeth is simulated, in order to build an aligner designed specifically for your needs. The aligner itself is a removable, clear plastic mould, which fits over the front teeth. It works by using a spring on the lingual (tongue) side of the teeth to exert very gentle pressure, which works in addition to a bar in front of the teeth to ‘push’ the teeth into the desired position.

Is the Inman Aligner right for me?

The many advantages of the aligner mean it is a good orthodontic option for many people. First of all, the device is relatively transparent, and although it does use a small visible bar across some teeth, it is not as noticeable as traditional metal braces. In addition, treatment time involving the Inman aligner is usually between six and sixteen weeks (depending on your orthodontic condition). This means that the aligner does not cause as much disruption to your lifestyle as other traditional braces can, making the aligner a good choice for those who are conscious of this. Furthermore, since the device is removable, oral hygiene and eating are much easier than with other braces.

What are the Inman Aligners other advantages?

The Inman aligner also tends to be less expensive than other forms of ‘invisible braces’ treatments, and so is a great choice of treatment for people for whom cost-effectiveness is important. However, the device is not ideal for everyone, as it is restricted in exactly how much tooth movement it can achieve. The Inman aligner works well for adults who have experienced teeth ‘relapse’, but it may not be suitable in cases such as very crowded front teeth.

Wedding Day Smiles-Whitening Your Teeth in Time for the Big Day in the City of London

May 10th, 2012

There are many things to prepare for before a wedding. In the run-up to the big event, with all the stress and anxiety that comes with it, there is no need to feel even more worried due to your smile. Wedding photos are how people remember their important day, and the best thing you can do for your wedding day snaps is to show off your beautiful smile! If you are feeling self-conscious about your teeth, or that your smile is not worth showing off, tooth whitening treatments may be the perfect way to restore your confidence, so that looking happy in photos of the big occasion need not be a worry.

Why do teeth discolour?

Tooth whitening involves bleaching the teeth after they have become darker or stained. This discolouration is, to some degree, a natural part of growing older, as the mineral structure of teeth changes due to aging. However, the discolouration of teeth can be increased by smoking, as well as consuming certain foods and drinks, particularly tea and coffee. It can also be caused by bacterial build-up, as a result of poor oral hygiene.

How does teeth whitening work?

The ‘at-home whitening’ procedure involves the use of custom-built bleaching trays for your teeth. These should be worn on the teeth for around six hours a day, for between five and fourteen days, in order to see the best results – so some preparation time is needed before the wedding day. The chemicals used are oxidising agents, which can penetrate tooth enamel, due to its porous nature, in order to bleach internal stains. Eventually, the dentine (the tooth layer under enamel) also becomes bleached. The effects of this can last several months for teeth whitening patients in the City of London. The whitening agents should lighten your teeth, but not affect the colour of fillings or most other materials used to restore teeth.

Why More Men are Turning to Cosmetic Solutions in London?

April 21st, 2012

In the past, any kind of cosmetic procedure – from the most superficial dental treatment to major operations like liposuction – were the domain of women. It was women who were bombarded with images in the media of what they should look like and many now choose to use some cosmetic dentistry to improve their look. But it isn’t only females choosing this route.

We have also noticed a great proportion of men choosing cosmetic dentistry in London, but what is the reason behind this? Think about how male role models have changed over the last 25 years and you might get your answer.

Just by looking at footballers you can see the difference between the scruffy, moustachioed men of the 1980s, and today’s young players, who seem to spend as much time on grooming products and doing their hair as they do on training. Now men are being bombarded with images of what the perfect male physique should look like, in the same way that women have been for decades.

When it comes to cosmetic dentistry another reason seems to be that older men are feeling more marginalised in the workplace and believe that a fresh new look will make them appear more youthful and energetic. Some people have lost their jobs and are finding it hard as an older man to get employed again – so smoothing out those wrinkles and fixing a crooked or stained smile is a great way to make the perfect first impression at an interview.

A Smile in London Tells You a Story and a Half

April 7th, 2012

Of all the human expressions, a smile is the one that is easily and most commonly displayed. It is an expression that indicates happiness, a friendly attitude and a desire to communicate with the person receiving the smile. A smile is the most common expression in London and the world over, and is also an expression that most of us are very conscious about.

If you have been a regular smoker, then you may want to hide your stained teeth and this is sure to make you uncomfortable every time you smile. There are other factors as well that could make your smile imperfect. These problems could have been with your since birth or may have developed as you grow and for some it could have happened due to an unfortunate accident. The shape of your teeth matter greatly when you smile, so if they are crowded, crooked or chipped, your smile may look less than its best.

Cosmetic dentistry has been fixing smiles for many years now and has some excellent solutions for people who want to make their smile perfect. Investing in a perfect smile can have a direct impact on your relationships, employment or business and the overall quality of life. Crooked and crowded teeth can be fixed with braces, while stained teeth can be brightened using various teeth whitening techniques or by applying porcelain veneers.

When it comes to visiting a dentist, most people are either scared of the procedures or the high costs that could be involved. However, this is just a perception rather than reality and the fact is, with the developments that have been made in the dental world, procedures and treatments have become increasingly painless and cost effective.
