 This gentleman was unhappy with the appearance of his smile and needed to greatly improve his appearance as he was dealing with the media.

He was also finding it progressively more difficult to eat effectively due to the presence of several loose teeth.

After a lot of discussion regarding his options the possibility of dental implants was not an option due to financial reasons.

We removed all of the loose teeth and then placed cosmetic dental crowns and bridges to improve the appearance of his front teeth. These were shaped to ensure they fitted in perfectly with his smile and the colour selected that he was happy with. Once these were fitted a partial, cosmetic denture was used to replace the missing back teeth.

Once the denture is fitted it completes the final appearance of a new upper arch of teeth. The patient was delighted and could now eat far more effectively and the appearance was a complete makeover of his smile !

It is a great way that different types of dentistry such as crowns, bridges and dentures can be used to provide a solution where implants may not be suitable.

Mark has been the principal of Park Place Dental for 15 years and has a wide experience in cosmetic and restorative solutions to improve patients smiles.

Smile Gallery – Case 2

This lady had an unfortunate accident and chipped the biting edge off her upper central incisor and fractured the porcelain veneer on the adjacent lateral incisor. The aim of her treatment was to restore her smile so that all the cosmetic work was invisible and no other damage was done to her teeth throughout.

To restore her smile we were able to replace the broken porcelain veneer with the latest E-max cosmetic veneer. Then we were able to use a highly aesthetic bonded white composite filling material to restore the biting edge of her chipped central incisor. This was shaped and polished to blend in with her natural tooth.

The final result shows her beautiful smile restored with the two broken teeth repaired with no further damage to her teeth.

This is an example of how white fillings can be used to cosmetically restore chipped, worn or broken teeth.

The countdown to no-smoking day 2015 has begun! If you’re thinking of giving up then let March 11th 2015 be your day!

Let’s face it there’s not much kudos in smoking these days. Over time your health deteriorates and your wallet feels the burn too.

Quitting won’t be the easiest thing you’ll ever do but here at Churchill Dental we reckon it will be up there with the best.

Smoking is also a risk factor for oral cancer as well as many other cancers.

Did you also know that a person is more than twice as likely to have oral cancer if they smoke and drink alcohol?

Smoking also increases the risk of periodontal disease, reduces the benefits of periodontal treatment and increases your chance of losing your teeth.

Become a healthier you – the benefits of stopping smoking start straight away.

• After 20 minutes your heart rate and blood pressure return to normal
• Within 8-24 hours nicotine and carbon monoxide start to leave your body and oxygen levels return to normal
• 24 hours and your lungs start to clear out mucus and other smoking debris
• 48-72 hours later your sense of smell and taste both improve
• 2-12 weeks exercise becomes easier and your breathing improves
• 3-9 months any coughs, wheezing and breathing problems are reduced as your lungs repair
• After a year your risk of coronary heart disease is now half that of a smoker

The other really satisfying thing about quitting is the benefits never really end. The financial benefits of quitting soon add up too!

If you’re a 20 a day smoker you will save:

• £8.50 in 1 day
• £59.50 in a week
• £255.00 in 1 month
• £765.00 in 3 months
• £1,530.00 in 6 months
• £3,102.50 in 1 year

Think of all the things you could treat yourself to with £3,102.50!

There is help out there to quit. We offer smoking cessation advice here at Churchill Dental or you can sign up to local services, consider quitting aids or venture online to www.nonsmokingday.org.uk
