Teeth Whitening

Following a thorough facial analysis and detailed discussion of the proposed treatment plan, the treatment can be started straight away, but often a separate appointment will be booked. Injections are used to administer the filler into the skin with a very fine needle causing little discomfort. However, dental local anaesthetic can be administered to provide completely pain free dermal filler administration. The gel is injected into the skin in small amounts immediately lifting and smoothing out wrinkles with the natural volume it provides.

A CBCT scan is a simple procedure. The patient is carefully positioned (this takes a couple of minutes), asked to keep absolutely still, and the machine then rotates 360-degrees around the head while capturing a radiographic image. The computer software then uses this information to reconstruct a 3-D image. The scan time varies depending on the image required, but generally takes around 10 seconds to complete.

CBCT scans are crucial to vusualise and plan complex dental treatment. This is particularly helpful when placing dental implants and complect root canal treatments, as the Cone Beam/CT scan images provide exellent detail of tooth and jaw anatomy.

All treatment plans will be discussed with you at the examination appointment, along with associated costs.

Complex treatments, may need multiple visits to complete the investigations needed prior to providing an estimate. This will be printed at reception, or if preferred emailed to you.
