CROWN LENGTHENING:

Crown lengthening procedure is to improve a "gummy" smile because your teeth appear short. Your teeth may actually be the proper lengths, but they're covered with too much gum tissue.

During the dental crown lengthening procedure, excess gum tissue is reshaped to expose more of the natural tooth. This can be done to several teeth to expose a natural, broad smile.

GUM SURGERY:

Sometimes gum recession causes the tooth root to become exposed, which makes your teeth look long. This recession can happen as a result of a variety of causes, including periodontal diseases.

Gum graft surgery and other root coverage procedures are designed to cover exposed roots, to reduce further gum recession and to protect roots from decay.

In excessive gingival recession cases, gum grafts are used to cover the roots or develop gum tissue.

LASER GUM DEPIGMENTATION:

Gum depigmentation, also known as gum bleaching, is a procedure used to lighten or remove black spots or patches on the gums caused by melanin.

FRENECTOMY:

A labial frenectomy is a form of frenectomy performed on the lip.

The labial frenum often attaches to the center of the upper lip and between the upper two front teeth. This can cause a large gap and gum recession by pulling the gums off the bone. A labial frenectomy removes the labial frenum  and help with closing a front tooth gap.

Do you have discolored teeth or spaces between teeth ??

PORCELAIN VENEERS

Porcelain veneers

                           ✒ If you are looking for a dazzling smile, then Porcelain veneers could be the solution you have been looking for. Veneers can correct a multitude of cosmetic defects, from discolored teeth to slightly crooked teeth to gaps in your smile.

CORRECTION OF DISCOLORED TEETH WITH PORCELAIN VENEERS

                       ✒ But will the veneers look like my normal teeth? When bonded to the teeth, the ultra-thin porcelain veneers are virtually undetectable and highly resistant to coffee, tea, or even cigarette stains. For strength and appearance, their resemblance to healthy, white tooth enamel is unsurpassed by other restorative options.

                             ✒ Dental veneers are very thin shells made from tooth-like material designed to cover the front surface of teeth. Most veneers today are made of porcelain because this material resists stains better and has a light-reflecting quality similar to that of natural teeth. The veneers are placed on the front of the teeth, concealing imperfections and sometimes changing the size, shape, and length of teeth.

SPACING CLOSURE WITH
PORCELAIN VENEERS

✒ To make veneers look as natural as possible an impression is taken of your teeth and sent to a dental lab where the veneers are custom made. There are many advantages of veneers, such as:
                   
                     1. Veneers are made of material that mimics natural teeth and are individually shaped for each patient, so it’s nearly impossible to tell the difference between veneers and natural teeth.
                     2.Unlike other cosmetic options, porcelain veneers won’t be stained by cigarette smoke, coffee, tea, and red wine.
                    3.The color of veneers can be selected from many whiteness shades. But you may want to resist the temptation to choose the lightest shade, cautions Harms. Blinding-white veneers often don’t look natural.


For healthy teeth, veneers can be a good substitute for crowns (also called caps), which require removal of more of your natural tooth structure.
