Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments
Cosmetic dentistry treatments are dental procedures carried out to improve the appearance of the teeth either by enhancing what is already present or by providing replacement of tooth structure that improves the smile. Cosmetic treatments are generally carried out after the mouth has been rendered healthy by your dentist. At Kingscourt Dental we provide a large range of cosmetic procedures to keep up-to-date with the demands of today’s society. A cosmetic consultation is FREE OF CHARGE so call today or book an appointment below.
Teeth Whitening
Tooth Whitening is a highly successful and simple method of lightening the colour of your teeth without removing any of the natural tooth surface. The degree of whitening varies from patient to patient and on consultation with your dentist at Kingscourt Dental Practice you will be advised whether or not you are suitable for tooth whitening. The whitening product is applied to your teeth via custom made bleaching trays that can be worn for 2 hours or overnight depending on your needs. It is a simple way of improving the appearance of your teeth and as a result gives you confidence in your smile. Ask your dentist for more information.Tooth coloured fillings
Say goodbye to dark silver fillings! A filling replaces a part of the tooth that has been destroyed by decay or through accidental damage. While there are many occasions where a silver amalgam filling is an option, more commonly people are aware of their dental appearance and prefer tooth colored or ‘white fillings.’ At Kingscourt Dental Practice we have a variety of shades that can be colour matched to your tooth. Quite often a tooth needs less preparation for a white filling than a silver one. The result is a more natural reflection of the previous tooth shape. Ask your dentist for more information.Veneers and Onlays
Just like a false nail fits over the existing nail, a veneer is a thin layer of porcelain/white filling made to fit over the front surface of an existing tooth. This can be done in two ways – a matched colour ‘composite’ material placed by the dentist or a laboratory made piece of porcelain. Veneers can improve the colour, shape and position of your teeth. A precise shade of porcelain can be chosen to give the right colour to improve a single discoloured or stained tooth or to lighten front teeth (usually the upper ones) generally. Veneers can also be used to close small gaps, when orthodontics (braces) are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others. An onlay is a custom made ‘tooth coloured’ material (made from a variety of materials) as an insert to replace lost or weakened tooth – for functional and aesthetic reasons. It fits like a jigsaw into a prepared back tooth.of crowns available at Kingscourt Dental Practice, metal crowns, metal fused to porcelain and metal-free aesthetic crowns. Ask your dentist for more information. A bridge is a restoration made by the lab to replace missing teeth in the arch. The materials used for bridgework are similar to those used to construct crowns. Bridging utilises the teeth adjacent to the space to bond to and they are fixed in the mouth by cement. Bridging is only possible if you have strong teeth with no gum disease either side of the space.Dentures
Dentures are a method of replacing missing teeth. They are removable and are normally made from acrylic or chrome. Modern materials mean that dentures have the capability of closely resembling natural teeth and there are a various different price structures depending on your personal budget. At Kingscourt Dental we have a dedicated clinical technician here has over 30 years experience in this field. Clinical Dental technicians provide a full range of solutions for patients missing some or all teeth, including cosmetic full and partial dentures, palate free, implant retained and flexi dentures, denture repairs and relines.

Dental Implants are a method of replacing one or more teeth that have been lost from any part of the mouth. They are carried out by specially trained oral surgeons and involve placement of a small titanium screw into the position of the missing tooth. The suitability of an area of the mouth for an implant depends on several factors therefore an assessment and special x-ray is often needed to determine the quality and quantity of bone available to take the implant. Good after care of the implant is as important as good care of actual teeth and the implant should be examined with the rest of your teeth as part of your routine examination.CFAST Tooth Coloured Braces
CFAST is a simple, gentle, minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that corrects tooth alignment. It deals with issues in the top and bottom front six teeth, thus satisfying the needs of the vast majority of adult patients who seek orthodontic treatment. It is a cosmetic adult brace so the wire and brackets are tooth coloured. If suitable for this type of orthodontics, the treatment only lasts 6 months. At Kingscourt Dental Practice we offer a free consultation for CFAST cosmetic braces and also include whitening as part of the process at no extra cost.First class service
