Veneers make a huge change to a smile and even to a persons face. Have had a few people asking what is involved and how they work
veneers are a porcelain covering on the surface of a tooth. They can be used to change the dimension, and shape of a tooth and even change the colour of a tooth and if several are done they can change the smile completely
How long do they last – veneers can last up to 10-15 years and in some cases even longer dependant upon how well they are looked after and maintained.
How are they made and what is involved? – a initial visit to consult and assess the smile and give you the best options and design the smile based on your preferences. Once this is completed then this can then be replicated in the mouth.

Whitening – Power whitening or Professional Tray Whitening
Whitening is one of the simplest and least expensive ways to light up your smile.
It can be done at home using trays custom–made by your dentist ( at lifestyle dental these can be made within 40 minutes on the same day) and filled with one of today’s sophisticated whitening gels. The trays are worn for several hours each day until, over a period of weeks, your teeth reach the degree of whiteness you prefer. Short visits to your dentist during the whitening process help monitor the condition of your mouth and verify your progress.
For those who want faster results, “power whitening,” done in the dentist’s office can brighten your smile in just one or two visits.
In either case you will probably need to touch up the whitening yearly to maintain your new look.
Whether whitening is done at home or at the dentist, it’s very important to make sure your gums and teeth are healthy before you start. It’s also important to think carefully about exactly how white you’d like your teeth to be. Whitening is very effective on teeth that are naturally dark or have been stained by things like coffee, tea, tobacco and certain medications.
so if you have any more questions about whitening pleae give us a call on 01772 717316 or email info@lifestyledental.co.uk
You may be thining well it takes a few years and would involve metal train track braces on your teeth which dont look very good.
well there are alternatives. well quite a few alternatives lets look at the options
If you have slightly twisted or crooked teeth at the front of your mouth which just ruin your smile and lower your confidence then you could have the Clearstep brace or the Invisalign brace – these are a series of aligners which are clear and invisible (well not noticable) and when you wear each one this exherts a small amount of pressure on to the teeth and this gradually pushes the teeth into position. The degree of crowding or overlapping of your teeth will determine how long the treatment takes but even severe cases can be treated in 2 years or less.
