At Dental In Focus Pimpama, our cosmetic dentists in Pimpama use advanced materials and digital planning to make sure your new smile blends seamlessly with your facial features.
Veneers and ceramic crowns are individually shaded and layered to mimic the translucency of real enamel. Composite bonding and contouring are sculpted chairside so shape and texture match neighbouring teeth. Friends and family usually notice radiance rather than spotting ‘work’.
Furthermore, advances in digital technology such as intra-oral scanning, digital smile design and 3D-printing look set to create more accurate, repeatable and aesthetic results for your smile.
Caring for Your Smile
Longevity depends on the procedure and your care. Professional teeth whitening can stay bright for one to three years with good oral hygiene and limited coffee, red wine or other staining foods and beverages.
The longevity of veneers can vary, with porcelain shown to be the most durable. The average lifespan of veneers is between 7-10 years, however with proper care some veneers can last longer! Composite bonding usually needs touch-ups after five to seven years as the resin collects stain faster than porcelain, and can wear down more quickly.
Abnormal jaw conditions such as grinding or clenching can shorten the lifespan of veneers. Wearing a nightguard if you grind teeth and avoiding opening bottle caps with your mouth can also protect your investment.
Routine check-ups allow us to polish surfaces, replace aged sealant and adjust bite pressure so restorations serve you longer. Good oral hygiene with correct brushing and flossing habits is essential to prevent decay or gum disease from affecting your dental work.
