I can see a black line on my crowns

 

This patient came to Dr Dixit for a consultation because she was unhappy with her smile.  The front crowns that she had did not match the rest of her teeth and the black line near the gum was very visible when she laughed.

Dr Dixit decided to replace the old crowns with all ceramic emax crowns.  This was considered to be the best match with the patients own natural teeth.  The transparent colour and life-like appearance ensured that it was unlikely to be noticed amongst her own natural teeth.

Emax crowns are a type of all ceramic crown with an appealing translucent colour which is combined with strength and durability.  There is no metal alloy base which means no unsightly looking grey/black  line.

The patient was extremely happy and satisfied with the final result.

 

TESTIMONIAL

 I have been with this surgery for many years and have always had ” first class”  treatment from Dr Dixit.  The staff are very friendly and professional.

Discoloured and uneven front teeth

  

This gentleman did not like the appearance of his upper front teeth.  He had very heavily filled teeth which were very discoloured and uneven.  The patient wanted a smile that would boost his confidence and one that he was not embarassed about.

To improve the appearance, the teeth were whitened, using the teeth whitening system and all ceramic crowns were made to protect the heavily filled teeth, enabling us to even them up.

The patient was very satisfied with the final result.

  

I WANT TO IMPROVE THE COLOUR OF MY FRONT TOOTH

 

This  charming lady was very unhappy with her smile and was seeking ways to try and improve it.  She wanted to lighten a discoloured front tooth that previously had been root canal treatmented.

We decided that the least destructive way of improving the colour of the tooth was with a technique known as internal bleaching.  The existing filling on the back of the upper front tooth was removed and then a special whitening gel was carefully placed inside the tooth. This gel was applied repeatedly over a few days. She also had the rest of her teeth whitened.

As you can see results were astounding, leaving her very happy with her new smile.

 

TESTIMONIAL

“Last day of my whitening teeth treatment.  The result is amazing.  Thank you so much.  This is such a great team and I just enjoy coming here.  Never thought I would enjoy going to the dentist before!

Thank you again.”

Mercury Amalgam Removal

A routine treatment for dental decay is to use fill the area with an amalgam filling. But what is decay?

Using higher magnification and powerful lighting, it is easier to detect decay at an early stage to prevent excessive tooth damage. When cavities are small, they are much easier and less expensive to treat.

Early tooth decay does not tend to show many physical signs. Sometimes the tooth looks healthy, but we may be able to see from an x-ray whether you have any decay under the enamel, any possible infections in the roots, or any bone loss around the tooth.

If the decay is not too serious, our cosmetic dentist will remove all the decay and restore the tooth with a white (tooth coloured) filling.

We can also safely replace silver amalgam fillings with white tooth coloured fillings. Here’s a video that shows this process and the possible results:

My teeth make me lack confidence

      

This very pleasant young lady from Harrow came to see Dr Dixit because she was unhappy with her smile. Every time she laughed she would raise her hand to cover her mouth. The gaps in between her front teeth had made her less confident and she thought the colour was uneven and dull. All she really wanted was a smile to be happy with.

Treatment options were discussed with the patient and a decision was made. The teeth were whitened  to get a brighter, whiter smile. Minimum preparation veneers were made and fitted to close the gap and match the new colour of her teeth.

The patient was delighted with the final result. She got the smile she always wanted. The patient is now bursting with confidence and is proud to show off her new teeth.

Testimonial

I am normally terrified of coming to the dentist for any treatment but since having my consultation, I felt at ease and have found all my treatments very relaxing, and now have an amazing smile to be proud of !

Dr Dixit and all the staff at the surgery are so kind and professional.

Many Thanks

Rapid Tooth Movement with the Inman Aligner

We’ve found the Inman Aligner to be a revolutionary new way to straighten teeth.

So if you are unhappy with your smile with crooked or uneven teeth and want the fastest result then the Inman Aligner is for you. Here’s a little video that shows some results:

Click to watch on Youtube
We love the Inman Aligner because its:

  1. Rapid, in around 10-18 weeks it can straighten your front teeth.
  2. Removable, you need to wear the aligner for 20 hours a day, but can remove it for eating and important social occasions.
  3. Comfortable, the Inman Aligner uses a revolutionary new way to gently pull and push at the same time with minimal discomfort.

The aligner works by an innovative mechanism which pushes and pulls your teeth at the same time

The Inman Aligner isn’t suitable for moving back teeth, or for moving teeth great distances however for general orthodontics on the front teeth it is often ideal and provides a rapid orthodontic solution

Length of Treatment

Inman Aligner treatment typically takes 10-18 weeks. Simple cases can complete in a little over 1 month and more complex cases might take 4 months or so.

We’ll will give you a realistic guide of what to expect. Normally lower front teeth move a little faster than uppers.

However, because the Inman Aligner is so highly efficient, when a case is suitable, it works much faster than alternative orthodontics techniques. This is what makes it so revolutionary and moves the Inman Aligner into the realms of cutting edge Cosmetic Dentistry.

What do Gum Disease and Whoopi Goldberg have in common?

Gum disease can progress painlessly on the whole which means you might not notice the damage it is causing to your gums and bone.

However, active bacteria can make your gums quite sore which can lead to gum abscesses. If Gum Disease is not treated over a number of years, the bone supporting the teeth can be lost. If the disease is left untreated for a long time, treatment can become more difficult.

There are now also links between gum disease and your overall health, as Whoopi Goldberg discusses in this videoi
