Tooth whitening (bleaching) is a highly effective yet simple method of lightening the colour of the teeth, without the need to remove any tooth structure. In this procedure, revolutionary photo cosmetic technology is used to
return your smile to its natural lighter shade in one 40 minute in-surgery session. Gel is applied to your teeth and a whitening light used to activate the gel. You may also choose to have the more economical and equally effective
home whitening kit to brighten your smile.

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of porcelain designed to cover the front side of teeth. You should know that this is usually an irreversible process, because it's necessary to remove a small amount of enamel
from your teeth to accommodate the shell. Porcelain veneers are extremely versatile and can be used to close gaps, align crowded or protruding teeth, or lighten tooth colour.

Fillings are placed to stop the progression of decay and tooth damage caused by bacteria, and to restore the tooth’s size and function. White fillings can be used to make the teeth natural looking as well as restoring
size and function. Silver (amalgam) fillings can also be replaced with white fillings to improve the appearance of the teeth.

A crown, also known as a “cap”, can improve the appearance and function of your tooth by restoring its normal shape and size, and making it stronger. A crown can cover and support a tooth with a large filling when there
isn't enough tooth left. It can also be used to protect a weak tooth from breaking or restore one that is already broken down. A crown is a good way to cover teeth that are discoloured or badly shaped, too. Most crowns,
like veneers, are made entirely of porcelain and look very natural leaving no black line at the gum margin as seen with some traditional crowns.

Inside each tooth is the pulp which provides nutrients and nerves to the tooth. It runs like a thread down through the root. When the pulp is diseased or injured, usually due to decay or trauma, the pulp tissue dies.
If you don't remove it, your tooth gets infected and you could lose it. In root canal treatment, the pulp is removed and the root canal is cleaned and sealed off . A filling or crown is then placed on top of the tooth
to protect it.
