Did you Know we can Sculpt your Perfect Smile in Liverpool?

Thursday, June 22nd, 2017

At Liverpool Dental Spa, we understand the importance of feeling confident, and we know the difference cosmetic dentistry can make. We have a range of cosmetic dental treatments on offer, so a beautiful smile is accessible to all. If you’re not completely happy with your smile and you dream of flawless pearly whites, we have the solution for you!

Smile sculpting

It’s very rare to have a naturally perfect smile. If you don’t have perfect pearly whites, don’t panic. The good news is that thanks to modern dental treatments, we can turn almost any set of teeth into a stunning smile.

We see patients on a regular basis who are unhappy with their smiles as a result of having chipped or worn teeth, teeth that are different shapes and sizes and a gummy smile. These are all fixable problems, and we have treatments that can sculpt your perfect smile.

Gum reshaping

Gum reshaping is a cosmetic procedure, which is used to tackle a gummy smile. A gummy smile won’t cause you any pain, but it can affect your confidence. With a gummy smile, you tend to see a lot of gum tissue when you smile, and this can make the teeth look small and short. Gum reshaping, also known as gum contouring, balances the aesthetic of the smile by removing a very tiny portion of gum tissue and changing the shape of the gums to make more of the tooth structure visible. The result is a healthy looking, attractive smile.

Tooth reshaping

If you have a tooth that is misshapen or your teeth are uneven in terms of size or length, we can use modern contouring techniques to improve the shape, alter the size and achieve a much more attractive smile.

If you’re not happy with your smile and you wish you could feel more confident when your teeth are on show, call us now! We have some fantastic treatments on offer and you’ll be amazed at what we can do in no time at all!

How Liverpool Dental Spa Can Sculpt the Shape of your Smile

Monday, April 10th, 2017

It’s very rare to have a naturally perfect smile. If you don’t like the shape of your teeth and gums, you don’t have to resign yourself to a lifetime of hiding your smile away. With innovative techniques like tooth reshaping and gum contouring, we can sculpt your teeth and gums and ensure you look and feel a million dollars every time you smile.

Tooth reshaping

Do you have a tooth that is longer than the others? Or do you feel like your smile looks unbalanced or uneven? If so, we can use tooth reshaping techniques to improve the shape of the individual teeth and adjust the size to create a beautiful, balanced smile. The procedure doesn’t take long, there’s minimal pain involved, and we have an experienced team on hand, so you can rest assured that you’re in the best hands.

Gum contouring

Do you have a gummy smile? Do you look in the mirror and think that your teeth look small and short? A gummy smile is not a medical problem. It doesn’t cause any physical pain and it won’t put your oral or general health at risk. However, it can affect your confidence and the way you feel when you smile. With a gummy smile, the gum tissue covers more of the tooth surface than normal, and this means that more gum tissue and less tooth tissue are visible when you smile. A gummy smile tends to make the teeth look short, and it affects the overall aesthetic of the smile.

Gum contouring is a technique we use to improve the look of the smile. It involves rimming away very tiny pieces of the gum tissue and reshaping the gums to unveil more of the tooth structure, making the teeth look longer and larger and giving you a beautiful new smile. The procedure is quick and we use the latest technology to minimise discomfort.

If you’re interested in our contouring or reshaping techniques, don’t hesitate to give us a call and find out more today!

Everything You Need to Know About Gum Contouring and Tooth Re-Shaping

Thursday, December 24th, 2015

Very few people have perfect teeth, but thankfully we have some incredible techniques that can help to improve the appearance of your smile. Whether you have a gummy smile or your teeth are looking a little run-down, worn or uneven, we can help!

About gum contouring

Gum contouring is a technique that we use frequently to treat gummy smiles. A gummy smile is the name given to the look of the smile when the gums cover a larger than normal portion of the tooth crowns. Although a gummy smile won’t cause you any physical pain, the teeth may appear small and you might feel self-conscious about the look of your smile. Gum contouring, also known as gum reshaping, can help to expose more of the tooth crowns, improving the balance of the smile by making the teeth look slightly longer. Contouring is usually a single-session treatment; simply remove very tiny portions of the gum tissue and reshape the gums to create a more attractive aesthetic.

What is tooth re-shaping?

Tooth re-shaping is a cosmetic technique that involves altering the shape of the teeth very slightly to create a more attractive looking smile. This technique is perfect for those who have teeth with worn or uneven edges, chips and some teeth slightly larger than others. Contouring improves the overall look of the smile and will ensure that you feel confident when you smile and speak in public.

Our cosmetic dentists are experienced in these techniques and use their expertise and creativity to produce truly stunning results.

If you’re not happy with the look of your smile and are interested in finding out more about simple techniques that will leave you beaming from ear to ear, call us today!

How Patients In Liverpool Can Treat A Gummy Smile

Friday, January 4th, 2013

Grab a mirror and have a look at your smile. Do your teeth seem small in comparison to your gums? Are you embarrassed when you smile because you think it’s displaying too much gum tissue? If you answer yes to either of these questions, you might have a gummy smile. You may already know that you have a gummy smile and this has been negatively affecting your confidence for some time. However, what you might not be aware of is how easy this problem can be rectified.

At Liverpool Implant & Aesthetic Dental Spa in the city of Liverpool, we can correct your gummy smile through the use of gum contouring or tooth reshaping. But, before we discuss how we can solve your problem and improve your confidence, let’s explain why this issue might be present in the first place.

What causes a gummy smile?

There are a variety of factors which can cause a gummy smile, one example of which is abnormal tooth eruption. Gummy smiles also occur as a result of hyperactivity in the muscle that controls the upper lip, leading to more of the upper gums being displayed. It is often possible to determine why you have a gummy smile based on dental history. For instance, if you have a gummy smile because of abnormal tooth eruption, you are likely to have other dental issues such as a misaligned bite.

No matter the reason for you gummy smile, we can treat it in one of two ways:

  1. Gum Contouring: Remove excess tissue from the gum line and lengthen the appearance of your teeth. This method works if your gum line hangs low over your teeth.
  2. Tooth Reshaping: If you feel one or more teeth are uneven along the biting edge, we can reshape it to improve the appearance of your smile and eradicate the unwanted gummy appearance.

While gummy smiles are common you don’t have to live with yours any longer. Get in touch today to set up a consultation and take a step to reclaiming your smile.

 

 

 

Patients in Central Liverpool are Happy with Their Beautiful Smiles Using Teeth and Gum Contouring Treatments

Monday, June 25th, 2012

The shape of the biting edge of the teeth and positioning of the gums around them can be very important to the symmetry of a smile.

If the bottom of the teeth are of an uneven length, or the gums hang too low over the teeth then a smile can appear less and perfect.

However, patients with biting edge and gum length problems can find the solution they need at Liverpool Dental Implant and Aesthetic with tooth and gum contouring.

What is tooth contouring?

Tooth contouring involves reshaping the bottom of the teeth to bring symmetry to the smile. Some of the teeth may be tooth long, or have a rough or slightly chipped biting edge, which are throwing off the balance of your smile.

This can be easily corrected, however, using tooth-reshaping techniques, which involve removing a small amount of tooth material to create a more in line smile.

What is gum contouring?

When the gums hang low over the tops of the teeth they can make a smile appear small, which may cause feelings of discomfort and embarrassment. Those who worry about their ‘gummy smiles’ needn’t worry about them much longer thought, as we offer gum contouring to help you review your beautiful teeth and smile.

Gum contouring involves cutting away the excess gum tissue that is covering your gums to reveal your complete smile. This will bring a greater sense of clarity and balance to the appearance of your smile and will show off your beautiful teeth.

If you would like any more information about what is involved in tooth reshaping and gum contouring treatments please contact the practice today. We serve people throughout Central Liverpool and beyond and can help you achieve the smile you always wanted.
