Crafting a truly natural and captivating beauty demands a meticulous focus on the finest details. By collaborating with esteemed dental laboratories and master ceramists in London, I have acquired the ability to artistically enhance smiles with stunning and authentic results throughout my years of practice.

Don't settle for a smile that doesn't make you feel amazing!


**Porcelain Veneers and Crowns**

Enhance your smile and boost your confidence with Porcelain Veneers, which can change the color, shape, and length of your teeth, providing a complete smile transformation. Crowns, or "caps," restore damaged teeth, making them stronger and improving aesthetics. They cover discolored or misshapen teeth, ensuring your restored tooth looks and functions like a natural one.

**Why Choose a Crown:**

A crown may be necessary if you:
- Require protection and sealing of a restored tooth after a root canal treatment.
- Have a cavity too large for a filling.
- Experience a cracked or weak tooth.
- Need to cover a dental implant or hold a bridge in place.

**Crown Procedure:**

Typically, two dental visits are needed for the crown procedure. The first visit involves numbing the tooth, removing decay, and preparing the tooth for the crown. A 3D digital scan or mold is taken for a custom-made crown. A temporary crown is placed while the permanent one is crafted. The second visit includes removing the temporary crown, checking the new crown's shape, color, and fit before permanently bonding it to your tooth.

**Materials Used for Crowns:**

Crowns can be made from various materials, including ceramic, composite resin, porcelain, or metal alloys. Your dentist will recommend the best-suited material for your tooth, ensuring color matching with your natural teeth.

**Benefits of Crown Treatment:**

Crowns provide functionality, allowing proper biting and chewing, while also transforming your smile by concealing broken or misshapen teeth, boosting your self-confidence.

**Post-Treatment Care:**

While you may be aware of your crown initially, any discomfort should subside within a couple of weeks. Good oral hygiene practices, regular dental check-ups, and following your dentist's advice contribute to the longevity of your crown.

**Special Care for Crowns:**

Maintain good oral hygiene through regular dental exams, professional teeth cleaning, and daily habits such as brushing with fluoride toothpaste, inter-dental cleaning, using an antibacterial mouthwash, and avoiding chewing hard foods.

**Laser Surgery **

- Soft Tissue Crown Lengthening
- Gingivectomy
- Crown and Bridge Impressions

Laser surgery offers numerous benefits, including a blood-free field, minimal post-procedure pain, no need for scalpels or sutures, and the ability to obtain a good impression in one visit.

**Inlays & Onlays**

These restorations are effective alternatives to complete porcelain crowns, suitable for moderate to severe decay or damage.

**What are Inlays and Onlays:**

Inlays and onlays, custom-made outside the mouth, fit the size and shape of the cavity. Inlays are suitable when the cusps are healthy, while onlays cover the biting surface, including cusps. They are typically made of porcelain or composite material, providing a stronger option than direct fillings.

**Procedure for Fitting Inlays & Onlays:**

Custom-made inlays and onlays usually require a single appointment. During a regular check-up, your dentist will assess the need for an inlay or onlay, remove decay, take an impression, and provide a temporary filling. The final visit includes fitting the inlay or onlay with a special adhesive and checking your bite for comfort.

**Benefits and Maintenance of Inlays & Onlays:**

Preserving the natural tooth structure, inlays and onlays are an excellent restorative treatment. They can last up to 10 years with regular maintenance through good oral care routines, a healthy diet, and regular visits to your dentist.

At Smiles by Una , our goal is always to maintain your natural teeth, ensuring the best possible comfort and confidence in your oral health.

**Dental Fillings**

Fillings restore decayed teeth to their normal appearance and function, using tooth-colored composite resin materials that match the color of natural teeth.

**Why You May Need a Filling:**

You may need a filling if you:
- Have a decayed tooth
- Have a broken or chipped tooth
- Need to repair old or damaged fillings
- Need to seal a root canal
- Need to build a core for a crown

**Procedure for Dental Fillings:**

A simple and common procedure involves numbing the area, removing decay, restoring the tooth with an appropriate filling material, and checking your bite for alignment.
