COSMETIC DENTISTRY

When referring to cosmetic dentistry we refer to a branch of dentistry that involves treatments that improves the appearance of a person’s teeth and smile. A smile is a powerful way for people to communicate in our days and here at Cyprus Happy Smile we offer a wide range of techniques to achieve the smile you dream.

WHITE FILLINGS

  1. Composite resin fillings. Resin is a tooth-colored plastic and glass mixture used to restore decayed teeth at the front and back .
  2. Composites can also be used as “veneers” in cosmetic improvement of a smile by changing the color of teeth, reshaping of disfigured teeth or closing gaps in a less invasive way.
  3. Porcelain inlay/onlay white fillings: These are custom made porcelain fillings. After the tooth is cleaned from the decayed substance the dentist will prepare the tooth to take a precise impression of the tooth and send it to the dental laboratory along with the relevant data. Two to three days later the porcelain inlay will be ready to be placed and bonded permanently to the tooth.

VENEERS

In dentistry Veneer is a thin layer of material placed over a front tooth to:

a) Improve the aesthetic of a tooth (color, shape, size)
b) Protect the tooth’s surface from damage or worn out as people age
c) Restore a broken tooth
d) Close small gaps

1) Porcelain Veneers

Is a less invasive method than the crowns. The dentist has to remove only half to one millimeter of the outer layer of the enamel only on the front side of the tooth. A local anesthetic may be used to make sure there is no discomfort. After the impression is taken is send the technicians laboratory along with all the necessary information (color, shape, size). A few days later the veneers are ready to fit in place. They are bonded with a special light-sensitive resin glue.
Sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures due to the removal of that thin layer of enamel or the chemical glue may occur. This typically disappears within a few days.
Porcelain veneers must be treated as your own teeth with daily brushing and flossing. Although they are very strong, veneers are also brittle. You should avoid excessive stress as you would with your original teeth. Don’t bite your fingernails, chew ice or open bottles!
If you have the habit of grinding and clenching your teeth your dentist may fit you with a night-time bite guard so you don’t damage your veneers.

Nowadays the new materials of monolithic zirconio in combination with adavanced technology of Computer Aided Design and C0mputer Aided Mashining CAD/CAM offer excellent results which you can hardly distinguish from the natural teeth. CAD/CAM technonogy can provide us with very thin porcelein facings which means very little to no preparation of the tooth.

2) Componeers – A Smile to go

Componeers are polymerized, prefabricated, composite enamel shells, thin as a contact lens. It’s a new, easy-to-use system for restoring anterior teeth .They combine the advantages of laboratory veneers and direct composites offering dentists and patients a new economic perspective in just one session.

FULL CERAMIC CROWNS

If your front teeth are too much damaged or discolored that white fillings, veneers or whitening can’t give you the smile you dream there is always the solution of a full crown free of metal crown . All ceramic crowns offer superior aesthetics where cosmetic appearance is the utmost concern. In recent decades a number of companies have developed new processes and material for fabricating all-ceramic crowns. In our clinic we use eMax, Monolithic Zirconia and layered Zirconia all-ceramic crowns which all embrace the concept of computer-assisted design and computer-assisted machining to fabricate an all-ceramic crown.
