Dental Implants

Dental Implants can restore your smile and rebuild your bite and confidence.

An implant is an artificial replacement for a tooth root. Dental implants are a highly effective and long-lasting way to replace lost teeth.

Dental implants can be an effective solution for replacing a single missing tooth, a few teeth, or full mouth restoration. With various types of dental implants available, our Impantologist will discuss your best options and help you to make an informed decision about how best to restore your smile.

Implants are the most secure and long-lasting anchor for false teeth. Because dental implants anchor the denture in place, you can be assured there is no room for movement. Implants don’t require priming of the adjacent teeth and are therefore the most sustainable alternative to partial dentures and conventional bridges.

Dental implants are a great way to transform the shape of the face and slow down the appearance of ageing caused by loss of bone volume in the jaw.

Recreate your smile with dental implants

One of the most popular cosmetic dentistry treatments, dental implants involve permanently attaching tooth-like materials to the gums, acting as a replacement for missing teeth.

The common types of dental implants include crowns, bridges and dentures.

Implants are generally a type of screw in the jawbone on which the “new” tooth is placed.
are inserted when a tooth is missing (as a result of disease or trauma) or when one must be extracted naturally (because of substantial tooth decay) and replaced with an artificial one.

A reputable Morpho Advanced Dentistry dentist will give you the right guidance if you have any tooth loss or oral pathology that puts your dentures at risk.

We’ll assess the condition of your gums beforehand to make sure that there is sufficient bone mass prior to the treatment.

No, not always. If the implant has not sufficiently bonded to the bone and gum, it may migrate. In this situation, it must be taken off, and the expert will determine whether another can be worn.

In order to ensure that your treatment is effective and that your implants last as long as possible, you must practise good dental hygiene to keep your teeth and gums in good condition. Every day, carefully brush and floss your teeth and gums.
Additionally, it’s crucial that you make an effort to stop smoking if you haven’t already.

Similar to how you would typically wash and floss your natural teeth, clean the area surrounding each implant with the same methods.
To clean the area around your implant and teeth, you might require specialised floss or interdental brushes.

If properly maintained, dental implants can last a long time.

Since the implant and the tooth that is affixed to it are both artificial components, the sensation is different from that of the other teeth.
But neither the implant nor the replacement tooth must hurt or cause discomfort.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns help to cover and protect your teeth

Teeth can get damaged through dental neglect, normal wear and tear or an accident to your mouth.  Dental Crowns are like small tooth shaped caps which the dentist will place on top of your existing damaged teeth. These crowns will help to cover and protect your teeth whilst restoring the size, shape, strength, colour and to improve the appearance of your overall smile.

Dental crowns can be used for many dental issues, such as:

  • Covering dental implants
  • Covering a root treated tooth
  • Protecting a cracked tooth
  • Covering a mis-shaped tooth
  • Supporting a dental bridge

Whilst a full crown covers all of your tooth, there are other types of crown available, such as:

Onlays and ¾ crowns, where only part of your tooth requires to be covered.

Crowns can be made of various materials which is why you may come across a difference in price from Clinic to Clinic. At Morpho AD&A we strive to use only the best materials for our patients to give them the best service.

The crown gives the tooth back its original size, shape, strength, and look.

Your teeth may suffer damage over time. There are many potential causes for this, including tooth decay, trauma, or simple wear and tear. Teeth can also hange in size or shape. Dental crowns are “caps” that fit over your teeth and have the shape of teeth.

You may need a dental crown for several reasons, including:

  • To protect a weak tooth.
  • Hold a dental bridge in place.
  • Restoring broken or worn teeth.
  • Covering discoloured or misshapen teeth.
  • Supporting and covering a tooth with a large filling.

Dental crowns can be made from different materials such as:

  • Metal.
  • Porcelain-fused-to-metal.
  • All-resin.
  • All-ceramic or all-porcelain.
  • Pressed ceramic.

Bridges

Dental bridges are used to restore any gaps from missing teeth in your mouth. They are also used to support the existing teeth and to stop the movement of your existing teeth falling into the gap. Generally, the bridge will be constructed by crowning the tooth on either side of the gap and using an attached pontic (false tooth) to fill the gap. This procedure will assist the overall efficiency of your mouth will be improved; fewer bite issues, enhanced chewing of food, less self-consciousness from the missing teeth. Improved smile.

There are many bridge options which our dentists can discuss with you:

  • Traditional fixed bridge
  • Cantilever bridge
  • Maryland bridge
  • Implant supported bridge.

 

Dental bridges can last for five to seven years at the very least. The bridge might endure more than ten years with appropriate oral care and regular expert cleanings. Our dentists will discuss the best options for you.

You can speak and chew more easily thanks to dental bridges because they resemble natural teeth very closely. With proper dental hygiene, they are simple to maintain and can last for ten years or longer. Dentures and implants are two often used substitutes for dental bridges.

A dental bridge can often be used to replace one to four teeth. Dental bridges are rarely used to restore five or more missing teeth.

Veneers

Restore your perfect smile with dental veneers

One way to create your perfect smile makeover is having veneers fitted to replace broken discoloured or crooked teeth. An increasingly popular cosmetic dental treatment, veneers are layers of material resembling teeth, that are placed over each tooth to create a brand new smile. They can often be used as an effective solution for those who wish to alter the shape, size, proportion or colour of their teeth.

Your Morpho Dentist will discuss with you your suitability for the treatment, the advantages and what to expect.

Veneers should be looked after just like natural teeth, and when taken care of, can last over a decade.

Dental veneers can last between 10 and 30 years when properly maintained.
Dental veneers are not indestructible, so even if you can eat nearly anything, you should take necessary care. Because porcelain is a glass, it can break under strong pressure.

No! Most patients say they experienced no pain or discomfort at all while receiving treatment. This is due to how minimally intrusive the process is.

The only tooth preparation necessary for veneers is the removal of a very thin layer of enamel.

Veneers are just like strong natural teeth, but like natural teeth, veneers can also be broken with enough force or pressure. That said, veneers are so durable that breakage is quite uncommon. Although rather thin, porcelain veneers are very strong and are resistant to chips and cracks.

Periodontics

Cosmetic periodontal surgery is performed to create a more beautiful smile by correcting issues such as an uneven gum line, missing teeth and restorative procedures. Periodontics focuses on improving the health of your gus and jawbone, and the supporting tissues of your teeth.

One area of dental specialisation is periodontics. Periodontics is the study and treatment of diseases like periodontal (gum) disease, bone loss, and gum recession that affect the tissues “around your teeth.”

A periodontist can perform a wide range of periodontal treatments, including periodontal maintenance, scaling and root planing, and several types of periodontal surgery.

A general or family dentist prioritises curative and curative procedures. For instance, you visit your dentist if you require routine dental cleaning. Additionally, a dentist places restorations like dental bridges and crowns and fills cavities.

A specialist in gums is a periodontist. They concentrate on addressing ailments that impact the tissues supporting your teeth (such as your gums and jawbone).

A person could require the services of a periodontist for a number of reasons.
Some patients only need to visit a periodontist once. In other words, they might require care that falls outside the ordinary dentist’s area of expertise.

You might require a frenectomy, bone transplant, or gum graft, for instance. Some people might require regular visits from a periodontist. This also applies to those who are at risk for gum disease.

A periodontist handles problems with your periodontium that are related to dental health (the tissues around your teeth).

This includes:

  • Gingiva: Your gums.
  • Periodontal ligament: A group of connective tissue fibres that attach your teeth to your jawbone.
  • Cementum: A hard layer of calcified tissue that covers your teeth roots.
    Alveolar bone: The part of your jawbone that has tooth sockets.

 

Invisalign

What makes a beautiful smile?

  • Symmetry of your teeth (particularly your front teeth)
  • How straight your teeth are i.e. Not overlapping, crooked or spaced too far apart
  • Tooth proportion
  • Colour of your teeth
  • Spaces between the tips of your teeth
  • Smile width
  • Gum health and gum line
  • Shape, colour and fullness of lips

40% of people felt that straightening teeth was the most attractive improvement one could make to the look of the mouth.*

(*) Results from a survey of 300 respondents (50% male, 50% female) from across the UK, conducted on Tuesday 13th January 2015 by Positive Communications on behalf of Invisalign.

Invisalign is a fantastic way to straighten your teeth without the use of traditional braces. The clear almost invisible aligners will help improve your smile and your confidence.

Cosmetic alignment treatments – otherwise known as teeth straightening – can boost confidence immensely and give you a smile to truly be proud of.

Invisalign is an almost invisible discreet way to straighten teeth. By wearing clear aligners that are custom-made specifically for you, you can enjoy the benefits of teeth straightening without many people even noticing and because Invisalign aligners are removable, you can eat and drink during treatment by simply removing your aligners. Only Invisalign clear aligners are made of SmartTrack material, so they are more comfortable to wear and easier to take in and out when eating or brushing your teeth.

We offer an iTero 3D scan image to show you the possible outcome of invisalign whilst you sit in the chair. We also offer a QR code which lets you see the possibilities in 60 seconds on your smartphone, allowing you to show your family and friends too. Using the iTero scan saves taking physical impressions and allows you to see your progression at every appointment.

Straighter teeth can do more than give you a beautiful smile:

  • Having straight teeth makes brushing and flossing easier, helping you to maintain a good oral hygiene routine.

Treatment options

  • When considering teeth alignment, it’s important to choose the treatment that’s right for you.

Invisalign aligners:

The clear choice for a great smile.

  • The Invisalign System involves a series of clear and removable aligners that gently and gradually shift your teeth into position.

Your treatment may take longer or be shorter than someone else’s if you decide to use Invisalign. While that may be the case, there are several exceptions to the “norm” that an average Invisalign treatment will typically take between 12 and 18 months.

You’ll see the benefits of Invisalign more when you wear them for more than 20 hours per day. Ideally, you should wear Invisalign when you sleep.

It is perfectly fine to not wear your Invisalign for an occasion or special event. Although the more you wear them, the more benefit you will notice, you can take them out to enjoy a special occasion.

Smile makeovers

Dazzle with a smile that shines

For a smile that’s sure to shine, it’s worth exploring smile design, or as we like to call it – smile makeovers.

A Morpho Dentistry smile makeover may involve any single or combination of cosmetic dental treatments to create a bespoke smile makeover made totally to suit you. We’ll address any aesthetic concerns regarding your smile and discuss the different treatment options to create a smile you can be proud of.

Our smile makeover process is designed to be completely customised to you, your needs and your smile goals, to achieve your desired outcome and create attractive, natural-looking results you’ll be proud of.

 

 

Cosmetic dental operations call for consistent oral hygiene maintenance over time. For instance, to keep the colour of your teeth brilliant, you may need to repeat the process sometimes.

Veneers made of porcelain may crack or chip and require repair.
Permanent composite bonding can need to be improved upon or replaced if it gets stained.

Usually, dental crowns need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years. Over time, gummy grin improvements could also need to be improved.

To avoid cavities, restrict between-meal snacking and steer clear of sugary meals. To keep your grin stain-free, limit your intake of coffee, soda, tea, and other beverages.

Avoid overindulging in alcoholic beverages. Your dental work can be ruined by drinking too much.

Your smile makeover may include one or more of the following treatments:

  • Dental veneers
  • Composite bonding
  • Dental implants
  • Teeth whitening
