An assessment of your teeth, your bite and your oral health
It all begins with your consultation at the clinic.

A smile designed around your face
Veneers and whitening, planned from photographs of your teeth and face, and checked with you for shape, colour and fit before anything is finished.
Ceramic veneers
Also called porcelain veneers. Each one is tried in, for shape, colour and fit, before it is cemented.
E-max veneers
Veneers in E-max. Ceramic or E-max: the choice follows an assessment of your teeth, your bite and what you would like to change.
Teeth whitening
Whitening works on your own teeth, with nothing fitted over them.
Generally
- Whitening generally brightens the natural colour of your own teeth.
Laser whitening
Whitening with a laser, at the clinic.
Generally
- In laser whitening, a whitening gel is usually applied to the teeth and a light is shone onto it.
- It is usually done in one appointment of around one to two hours.
Closing a gap between teeth
A small diastema can be closed conservatively with composite (partial composite veneers or composite restorations).
Generally
- A diastema is a gap between teeth, most often between the two front teeth.
- How a gap is closed usually depends on its cause.
Restoring teeth
Teeth that work and look like your own
Whether a tooth is rebuilt or replaced is decided after an assessment of your teeth, your bite and your oral health.
Dental implants
Offered at the clinic in Mina, and planned after your assessment.
Generally
- An implant generally replaces the root of a missing tooth; once it has healed, an artificial tooth is attached to it.
- The bone usually takes three to nine months to fuse with an implant, depending on how quickly you heal.
Zirconia crowns
Crowns made in zirconia, planned after an assessment of the tooth and your bite.
Generally
- A crown is a tooth-shaped cap over the whole tooth, generally used to restore a weak, broken or decayed tooth.
- Zirconia is a ceramic that can take heavier biting forces than other ceramics used for crowns, with less wear on the teeth it bites against.
- A crown is usually made to measure by a dental laboratory, which often takes two to three weeks.
Root canal treatment
Done at the clinic, planned after your assessment.
Generally
- Root canal treatment removes an infection from inside a tooth; the tooth is then usually cleaned, filled and sealed so it does not become infected again.
- It usually takes two or more appointments.
Fillings
Everyday care for your teeth, at the clinic.
Generally
- A tooth-coloured filling is usually placed directly in the tooth, in a single visit.
Healthy teeth
Cleaning, the base of every lasting smile
Regular professional cleaning looks after your own teeth, and any veneers you have.
Looking after veneers
Professional scaling and root planing approximately every 6 months, as clinically indicated; brushing twice a day; water flossing as part of your daily routine; and, if you grind or clench your teeth, the recommended night guard, worn consistently.
Scaling and cleaning
Professional scaling, as clinically indicated, for your own teeth and for the work you have had done. Ask us when you are due.
WhatsApp usGenerally
- A scale and polish usually removes the plaque and tartar that build up on the teeth.
- For adults, the time between check-ups is usually set by each person’s own needs, anywhere between three months and two years, rather than one rule for everyone.
