Different treatments are sometimes combined to remodel the smile line. We consider individual requirements, unique facial features, and any occlusal issues to offer personalised treatment harmonious with your facial aesthetics. Our crown-lengthening treatments ensure results are completely natural-looking.

We use 3D scans for more accurate assessments and to simulate results. With on-site printing facilities, we can precision-print porcelain crowns and veneers. Perfectly fitted for functionality and comfort, they will feel natural to wear. You may require gum contouring before crowns and veneers get placed.

Gingivectomy achieved with laser gum surgery, apical repositioning, and pressured root eruption can lengthen crowns. With state-of-the-art surgical facilities and the expertise of our resident periodontists and oral surgeons, you can experience safe, comfortable, and effective procedures. We also offer IV sedation for better relaxation during surgical treatment.

What is composite bonding?

Composite bonding uses tooth-coloured composite resin to build tooth structure and improve its proportion to lengthen teeth. Dentists can sculpt, shape, and bond the material to the tooth for a seamless and natural look. Composite bonding can also restore chipped, cracked, uneven, decay-damaged, and discoloured teeth and fill minor gaps between teeth.

How long do results last?

Dental bonding can last 5-10 years, after which retouching is necessary. Crowns and veneers can last up to 15 years. Results from gum surgery are usually permanent.
