Restoring your beautiful smile

There are Options available!

For anyone looking to make a major change to the look and quality of their teeth, it’s important that you use the right kind of treatment plan to keep your teeth developing right. We provide a variety of treatment options ranging such as: 

Veneers

What are Veneers?

As stated by the American Dental Association, Porcelain veneers are thin pieces of porcelain used to recreate the natural look of teeth, while also providing strength and resilience comparable to natural tooth enamel. They are placed directly overtop of your existing teeth to create a beautiful natural looking smile. 

How can Veneers help you?

  • Make sure that your teeth can find better balance

If you ever look at your teeth and notice that they lack the straightness that you would wish for, this can help to correct that problem. Porcelain veneers can help to protect or limit a crooked tooth from getting worse, or help to provide balance to make it look less obvious.

  • No more stained teeth

From excessive sugar intake to smoking, you can find that your teeth can have an almost unnatural look to them, with veneers we can eliminate the stains and leave your smile shining

  • Manage chipped teeth

 This helps to hide the chip and offer extra strength and solidity to the tooth.

  • Gaps in your teeth

You can use our dental veneers to help fill in the gaps and leave you with teeth that line up better and look more balanced naturally.

Crowns

What Are Crowns?

A dental crown, also known as a cap, is a natural looking, durable covering that is molded to fit perfectly over the top of a damaged or weakened tooth. A crown can be made of either porcelain, zirconia, or gold, and will cover the entire tooth, creating a strong and visually pleasing finish. By protecting your tooth with a crown, you can help to ensure that the tooth stays healthy and is protected from further damage or decay.

Do you need them?

Damage from cavities, fractures, cracks, and root canal therapy can cause teeth to become weakened and damaged. If damaged teeth are not sufficiently protected, then they may deteriorate to the point where they need to be removed completely. If you have a tooth that is either structurally weak or aesthetically damaged, then a Crown is a great solution for both strengthening and visually restoring your tooth.

At Parkway Smiles, we can provide a perfectly fitting crown that will protect your tooth and restore your smile. We can also combine the use of crowns with veneers to make full cosmetic modifications to your teeth.

Bridges

What are Bridges?

Not only do missing teeth affect your smile, they can also lead to a number of dental issues such as misalignment, an inability to bite properly, and in some cases even affect your speech. Having a dental bridge fitted is a very effective solution, and will ensure that both your smile and teeth remain in great condition. As an alternative to a dental implant, a bridge offers a way to replace one or more missing teeth. A dental bridge can enhance your smile, chew more effectively, and even improve speaking.

How Do Bridges work?

A dental bridge uses the teeth on either side of the area you missing a tooth and connects them all together. It is permanently fixed in place. The procedure involves preparing the teeth at either end of the gap in order to make room for the bridge to be fitted onto them. After taking an impression of your teeth, a natural looking prosthetic bridge is made by a dental lab. The bridge can then be permanently cemented onto the prepared teeth, creating a seamless look that completes and restores your smile.

Implants

What are Bridges?

A dental implant is the most effective and long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth. They are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. Unlike other solutions, implants do not affect any of your other existing teeth, as they are made to fit perfectly into the space available. 

How Do Bridges work?

Dental implants are made up of two key components which work together to form strong and durable replacement teeth. The first component consists of a small titanium post which is surgically implanted into the jawbone. The post then acts as a tooth root substitute, to which a new synthetic tooth is then permanently fixed to.

should you fill the gaps in your mouth?

Tooth loss can cause immediate problems with eating, speech, and other basic activities that may worsen with time.

When you lose teeth, it disturbs the interplay between teeth and bone. Gum and bone are no longer stimulated well enough due to the missing teeth. Which means the jaw bone starts shrinking and your gum pulls back. As shown in the image below, this can weaken neighbouring teeth until they collapse or begin to move into the gap.

Missing teeth can also lead to significant changes in the structure of your jaw bone, which can lead to unpleasant visual changes to your face. People sometimes don’t realize just how much your teeth can effect the way your face looks. Below you will be able to see a depicted.

Composite (white) fillings are a great solution when there is a small cavity or area of the tooth that needs to be restored. However, if the cavity becomes larger, or if the face of your tooth becomes damaged, filling material cannot provide the adequate strength to support the needs of your tooth. Unlike fillings, crowns and onlays are made of stronger materials, and cover the damaged area as oppose to simply filling it. This provides a seal around the tooth which helps it to stay intact. In fact, many studies have shown that a tooth with a crown will last much longer than a tooth with a large filling.

Whether you’re missing one tooth or several teeth, both dental bridges and dental implants are great ways to restore your perfect smile. With this being said, bridges can in many cases be a less invasive and a more cost effective solution. Bridges are also very effective at replacing larger rows of missing teeth, as a dental bridge only has to be fixed to the teeth at either side of the gap. Don’t worry if you are undecided on which solution is best for you. At Parkway Smiles, we will answer all your questions so that you can decide which option best suits you.

If you have an area with a number of missing teeth, then a fixed-implant-retained bridge is the perfect solution for you. This procedure involves placing a dental implant at either side of your gap, and then fixing a bridge to these implants instead of any of your existing teeth. Using this method, both your smile and your dental health will be restored without compromising any of your existing teeth.
