Latest Update on Dental Whitening

May 11th, 2011

Tooth Whitening is the most common cosmetic dental procedure. On the National and Regional news recently tooth whitening has been a hot topic for discussion. Thousands of people have their teeth whitened every year in High Streets and shopping centres, by staff with no formal dental training. The General Dental Council are calling for tougher controls on who is allowed to carry out tooth whitening in the UK.

The General Dental Council is an organisation that regulates Dental Professionals in the UK. Their purpose is to protect the public, and they do this by registering qualified professionals, setting standards of dental practice and conduct, assuring the quality of dental education, ensuring professionals keep up-to-date, helping patients with complaints and working to strengthen patient protection.

After complaints about poor treatment, the council says teeth whitening is a dental procedure so only dental professionals should administer it.
However, teeth-whitening companies say it is a cosmetic not dental process.
A non- dental professional has no knowledge of dental disease and cannot diagnose any problems in patients that could potentially have a detrimental effect to their teeth if they carry out the whitening. Common complaints are stripping of the enamel, whitening of the gums, extreme sensitivity and in some cases teeth becoming yellow instead of white! At Creative Smiles we have seen some of the these complaints from patients who have had their teeth whitened on the High Street.
The General Dental Council successfully prosecuted the director of a national chain of tooth-whitening salons in March this year – and is warning it will bring similar proceedings in the future. Its view is supported by the Department of Health, which says tooth whitening should be performed by a suitably trained and competent dentist or dental-care professional.
At Creative Smiles we appreciate that tooth whitening is a very beneficial treatment. We will gladly discuss individual needs and expectations. We can only advise our patients of the safest options for tooth whitening. It is a very simple and effective treatment when carried out by qualified registered dental professionals.

An Interesting Trauma Case at Creative Smiles!

February 8th, 2011
BEFORE
AFTER

Here you will see from the photographs an interesting Trauma Case treated with both Orthodontics and a combination of High Quality Porcelain Restorations!

This Gentleman came to Creative Smiles after Sustaining Trauma to his Upper Front Teeth.
Due to the extent of the Trauma his Upper Left Lateral Incisor Tooth (right side on photograph, 2nd tooth along) had to be removed leaving a gap.  His other front teeth were broken and discoloured due to nerve damage resulting from the trauma also.  This patient had protruding teeth to begin with which he was constantly aware therefore self conscious of so instead of just restoring the broken teeth resulting from the trauma, we suggested to take this prime opportunity to treat the protruding teeth and utilise the space produced by the missing lateral incisor tooth in order to achieve this!
The Front Six Teeth were retracted using an upper removable brace which brought them onto their natural position.
Whitening was carried out after alignment.
The case was then finished using a Combination of  High Quality Porcelain Crowns, Veneers and Bridgework to restore the discoloured and poorly shaped anterior teeth!

The Art Of Smile Design using Porcelain Veneers

January 31st, 2011

 SMILE DESIGN  MAKE-OVER AT CREATIVE SMILES!

 This lovely lady came to see us at Creative Smiles extremely self conscious about her smile.  She felt that her teeth looked too small and she showed too much gum.  She was mostly aware of her smile when talking to people, so much so she covered her mouth with her hand and would never attempt to smile in a photograph!
We got to work on designing a new smile for our patient!
Porcelain Veneers alone here would not change the Gum Levels that she was so concerned about so we had to organise for a Minor Gum Surgery Procedure to be carried out on the front 6 Teeth to decrease the gum level height to give the teeth more length and character.  While the Gum Surgery was healing, all the teeth were whitened using  our Zoom 2 AP Power Whitening System (completed in one hour). 
Each stage of this Smile Make-over was carefully planned between our Dentist Mr Gilbert and The Technician/Artist at our Dental Laboratory with the use of state of the art Dental Photography, Smile Design Models and Equipment.  This meant that on the day of preparation of the front 6 teeth, our patient was leaving with Temporary Veneers placed that were based on the end result, so she knew EXACTLY what the end result was going to be!!  This in- between stage between preparation and fitting is known as ‘the Trail Smile’ .  It means nothing is left to chance!  We often find a lot of our patient’s wanting to know why they cannot keep their trail smile and do they actually have to have them taken off for the Permanent Veneers to be fitted!! 
Once Mr Gilbert and our patient was happy with her ‘Trial Smile’ we then gave our Technician the go ahead to make the permanent Veneers with High Quality Porcelain.  These were then fitted just over 2 weeks after the teeth were prepared.  We used Cosmetic Bonding on both the Upper 1st Pre-Molar Teeth to bring them into the Smile more to finish off the makeover!
Since the Smile Make-over this lady has given us so much positive feedback.  It has been a life changing experience for her.  She bought her family a portrait seating as a gift and had the confidence to join them in getting a photograph taken (with her mouth open).  She looked, and more importantly felT amazing!  She has also had the confidence to go for a new job (which she was successful at getting) and her boyfriend says he is dating a new woman!

Create a New Whiter Smile for 2011!!

January 20th, 2011

Thursday 20th January

A New Year has begun and with it another opportunity to reassess and go forward!

Many of us will by now have started a new health regime involving healthy eating or a form of exercise plan to shake off the festive excess!  What a better way to boost your confidence and start the New Year in style than with a sparkling white smile!!

 Whitening your teeth can be a low cost, simple way of really making you feel better about the way you look.  One of the major benefits is that it is a very  non- invasive Treatment!

 At Creative Smiles we are keeping our Christmas Tooth Whitening Offer Prices until the end of February and are offering Complimentary Consultations to assess your suitability!

 We provide Zoom 2 whitening at Creative Smiles!  (As seen on extreme make-over) This is the latest, most advanced and successful way to whiten your teeth.  The advantage of the Zoom 2 procedure is that it is carried out in the dental chair in one hour using a special light which activates the bleaching agent on your teeth.  The Zoom 2 procedure investment is £399.
We also offer Tray-kit Whitening. This technique can be used on its own and is the most common form of tooth whitening. Custom made trays are made based on accurate impressions taken of your teeth. These are then processed at our laboratory.  Upon their return we fit your individual trays and provide you with all required instructions with a full bleaching kit which you administer for 20 days on a daily basis for 4 hour sessions. We monitor your progress throughout the whitening procedure, and take before and after photographs.  The investment for this treatment is £299.
After many years of carrying out whitening treatments here at our practice, we have found best results are achieved from using both of the above treatments together.   This is called ‘Combination Whitening’ This involves initially having the Zoom 2 procedure carried out then continuing with the tray system as explained above to ‘top-up’ immediately after  Zoom 2.  The advantage of this is the tray system can then be used for further bleaching you may like to carry out further down the line in six months time for example or for a special occasion as there tends to be a slight fade-off with any bleaching system after a long period of time.  Combination Whitening provides the best treatment for long-term results.
Combination Whitening is priced at a discount investment of £479.
We offer Various In-house Payment Plans at Creative Smiles which allows our patient’s to spread the cost and achieve the smile you desire!  This means you can have Zoom 2 Whitening for £39.90 per month (as little as £1.33 per day!)

We offer ‘Complimentary Assessments’ in order to assess suitability for our whitening systems!

We also have Gift Vouchers Available upon request!

The new you starts here at Creative Smiles!
