White or tooth coloured fillings provide a healthier, more natural alternative to traditional silver amalgam fillings. They also allow for a minimally invasive restoration meaning more of your natural tooth can be preserved.

White filings can be used in the front or the back of the mouth. They are the ideal, natural-looking way, to restore strength and function to damaged teeth.

Your dentist can build up cracked or chipped teeth with a white filing to restore each tooth to its original look and feel or, it can be used to close gaps, reshape uneven or short teeth and filling cavities caused by tooth decay.

At Dawley Family Dental our white fillings are available in a wide range of shades and opacities. Our team of highly trained dental professionals are able to build up white fillings through a complex ‘layering technique’ to create beautiful restorations that blend into the rest of your smile

White fillings can offer a quick and affordable way to correct a variety of dental situations such as:

• Cracks
• Chips
• Closing gaps between teeth
• Reshaping short or uneven teeth
• Tooth decay and the filling of cavities
• Discoloration
• Replace metal or amalgam fillings

Many of us had braces when we were younger but the teeth may have since moved. Many people have thought about having braces but have been busy with other aspects of their lives and too busy to attend a dental clinic.

We offer a range of options from removable clear aligner system, removable metal appliance to fixed clear brackets and white wires to align the teeth to achieve your desired goal.

We will work with you to achieve the desired result in your time frame and at your budget. A thorough assessment of all teeth is required and a full and comprehensive treatment plan will be devised to outline the goals and type of treatment that is required.

Average treatment times of only six months……..
Six Month Smiles® is a modern twist on tried-and-true orthodontics. There is little debate within the orthodontic community that braces are the most widely used and most effective method to give patients straight, healthy teeth and a beautiful smile.

Six Month Smiles has taken the best aspects of braces and modified the treatment and the materials to give adults a common-sense, cosmetic solution that fits your lifestyle.

Q: How can teeth be straightened in only six months?
The Six Month Smiles technique employs the latest technology and techniques in dentistry to move your teeth quickly and safely. The key components of the treatment are the use of unique, clear braces and a primary focus of moving the teeth that show when you smile

Q: Six months sounds good, but will I still have a mouth full of metal for the whole time?
No! Six Month Smiles uses clear braces that are barely visible to gently straighten your teeth.

Q: How are Six Month Smiles braces more comfortable than regular braces?
Six Month Smiles uses low force to move teeth more comfortably. Many people think that the accelerated treatment means simply “tightening” regular braces to get the teeth moving, but that is not true. Six Month Smiles utilizes standard orthodontic mechanics, but with an emphasis on the cosmetic appearance of your teeth rather than the position of your bite.

Q: Do Six Month Smiles braces damage the teeth, roots, or gums?
There are no more risks of root damage or other issues than those associated with traditional orthodontics. Since the forces used with Six Month Smiles braces are lighter and teeth are seldom extracted, there are actually even fewer risks involved with Six Month Smiles.

Q: Will I have to wear a retainer?
Yes, as with any teeth-straightening treatment a retainer is necessary to maintain the straighter position of your teeth. If you don’t want to wear a removable retainer, you can have a bonded retainer placed. There are a variety of options that you can choose from according to your personal preference and situation.

Q: What’s the catch?
There is no catch. If you are an adult (16 years and older) with crooked or spaced teeth and you’re not looking for a major alteration to your bite, this could be the solution for you! Most adults ARE candidates for Six Month Smiles.

Before and after smile gallery

Teeth are an important part of your daily life and play an important role in both aesthetics and function. It is unfortunate when teeth cannot be restored to function and require removal.

We use the latest dental implant technologies and techniques to recreate your smile to restore function and aesthetics. It is highly predictable and with one of the highest success rates in medicine and dentistry (over 98% over five years) you can be confident that you will get the next best thing to teeth.

It does not matter how long the teeth have been missing, your age, the size of the defect or the location in the mouth. We can restore single spaces, larger spans to full mouth rehabilitation. There are normally a few options for methods of tooth replacement and all options will be discussed, a full written report produced and all costs will be explained in advance.

We offer an in house finance option which you can spread over 5 years to make paying for treatment easier to manage.

The dental implant procedure is carried out under under local anesthetic and sedation can also be used. For simple cases, over the counter pain killers for a few days is sufficient to keep you comfortable, and if larger surgical procedures are required then appropriate pain killers and advice will be provided.

All out treatments come with a complete peace of mind. All costs are provided upfront and there are no surprises. Any treatment carried out at out clinic is guaranteed for one year and there is ongoing protection after this time for a small fee. The fee will cover a full replacement if the implant is lost for any reason (excluding for cancer treatment, or other medical condition for which an implant will be contraindicated) and implant assessment twice per year including any necessary radiographs.

A crown is simply a robust protective cover for a tooth. It completely caps or encircles a tooth and is most commonly bonded using a dental cement. We can produce crowns in a number of different materials and finishes, depending on your individual requirements. Typically, heavily filled teeth which can be prone to chipping and breaking are crowned to protect them.

Typically, heavily filled teeth which can be prone to chipping and breaking are crowned to protect them.

Furthermore, using a white porcelain finish can greatly improve the visual quality of your smile.

How our procedure works :

• After an initial examination the teeth are prepared, and impressions are taken of the tooth to be crowned.
• These impressions are sent to the laboratory where they are prepared and sent back for fitting

Bridges

A bridge is used to replace a missing tooth by joining permanently to adjacent teeth or dental implants. There are different types of bridges, depending on how they are made and the way they anchor to the neighboring teeth. Everybody’s mouth is different, and we will ensure we choose the right materials and methods which best suit your needs
