Porcelain Veneers
If you have crooked, discoloured, wrong shape, size, worn down, damaged and unwanted spaces between teeth porcelain veneers can be custom made to give you a smile you love. Porcelain is a strong, translucent porcelain material, and is a great alternative to composite resin restoration; porcelain veneers are stronger and will wear better.

Teeth Whitening
There are two types of teeth whitening services: our home whitening programs and in-house whitening treatment. You don’t need to wait in our practice to achieve a brighter smile. We have tried numerous teeth whitening systems on the market and believe that the simple, conventional way of self administered bleaching trays done in the privacy of your own home provides the most consistent results in a fraction of cost of in chair whitening. For convenient whitening treatment services, talk to one of our dentists for our home whitening treatment. We will prescribe you a program aligned with your desired result, making sure you get a treatment that matches your requirements.

Tooth Coloured Fillings
Restorative – Fillings
When a tooth has a decay or is broken, you may experience discomfort, pain or temperature sensitivity. Your dentist will assess the extent of tooth damage and if the nerve remains healthy, a tooth-coloured filling can be placed to restore a tooth’s former strength, function and appearance.
Traditionally silver fillings (amalgam-an alloy that contains silver, tin, copper, zinc and about 50% mercury) has been used for nearly 160 years for restoring teeth. We do not offer silver illings as more aesthetically pleasing alternatives are available. Our clinic offers filling materials such as composite, Glass ionomer cement (GIC), ceramic such as crown fillings. However, composite can stain overtime and need to be replaced due to wear or recurrent decay. GIC filling is mainly used for children’s filling and it’s generally weaker and may not be as close to match to your natural tooth colour compared to composite fillings. Book Appointment to find out which filling is more suitable and durable.
