      <image:caption>An air polish is used to gently remove deep staining on or between the teeth using a specialist instrument that uses high pressure air/water and a fine powder. It is often used prior to any tooth whitening to ensure the best result however some patient like to have this done as part of their 6 monthly checkup to fully remove any stains. An air polish offers enhanced stain removal compare to a scale and polish because the air/water and power can penetrate deeper in between the teeth to fully remove stains.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Implants - Implants</image:title>
      <image:caption>Dental implants are used to replace a missing tooth or teeth. They are small metal screws (usually made of titanium) that are placed into the jawbone to act like artificial tooth roots. Over time, they fuse to the jawbone and a restoration is fitted on top. Dental implants can be used to replace a single tooth (an implant crown) or many teeth (an implant bridge or implant denture) People are often surprised with how little discomfort is experienced during treatment. Just after the dental implants are placed in the mouth, any discomfort can usually be managed at home with normal painkillers. Some minor swelling occasionally occurs and is normal, this subsides within a few days after surgery. Provided you look after your mouth, maintain good oral hygiene and see your dentist regularly, dental implants can last many years. Implant treatment is akin to having a hip replacement – you would expect the artificial hip to last 10-20 years and then it may need re-treating and it is important that you look after your dental implants for the very best, long-lasting results.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>At Strathbungo Dental we are pleased to offer both anti wrinkle infections (aesthetic injections) and Dermal fillers treatments as part of our facial aesthetics. Aesthetic injections are used to relax muscles around your face and prevent the formation of lines/ wrinkles on function. This is most commonly used to treat lines around the eyes whilst smiling (crows feet), frown lines around the eyebrows or wrinkles in the forehead that occur when raising the eyebrows. The amount required will depends on the number of areas being treated, the severity of the lines and also the patients wishes. Dermal fillers is the use of injections to help restore volume to the face and diminish any lines that are present at rest. Often this is used to treatment folds that occur between the nose and edge of the mouth (nasolabial folds), those that occur between the edge of the mouth and the chin (Marionette lines) but it can also be used to add volume to the lips to improve their profile. The amount of filler required will vary from patient to patient so feel free to book a consultation appointment to discuss this with one of our team.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Root canal Treatment - Root canal treatment</image:title>
      <image:caption>Root canal treatment is designed to eliminate bacteria from the infected nerve of the tooth (at its centre), prevent reinfection of the tooth and save the natural tooth. When one undergoes a root canal, the inflamed or infected pulp (nerve) is removed and the inside of the tooth is carefully cleaned and disinfected, then filled and sealed. A modern root canal treatment is nothing like those old sayings! It’s very similar to a routine filling and can usually be completed in one or two appointments, depending on the condition of your tooth and your personal circumstances. Getting a root canal is painless and extremely effective. You’ll be back to smiling, biting and chewing with ease in no time. Saving your natural tooth has a range of advantages: Effecient chewing Normal biting force and sensation Natural appearance Protects other teeth from excessive wear or strain</image:caption>

      <image:title>Tooth whitening - Tooth Whitening</image:title>
      <image:caption>Tooth whitening is a simple, effective and safe means to achieve an improvement in your smile. To achieve this impressions or a scan of the your mouth are taken and thin, custom made bleaching trays are constructed. Bleaching gel is then placed into these trays and used nightly for around 2 weeks. The effectiveness of this is most noticeable at the end of treatment and how long it last varies relating to habits such as smoking, diets heavy in staining food/ drink such as red wine, coffee or tea, and if any top up is required new whitening gel is purchased through our practice.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Composite bonding - Composite bonding</image:title>
      <image:caption>Composite bonding (also known as tooth bonding or dental bonding) offers a solution for gaps in between teeth, improving the shape of teeth or fixing minor damage such as chips or fractures. A composite resin (white filling material) is bonded to a tooth and shaped to restore its appearance. The colour of the resin is matched to your teeth, so it will appear as though it is a natural part of the tooth. The benefits of composite bonding are that it can usually be carried out in one visit, is cheaper than crown or veneer treatments, usually requires no local anaesthetic and is more conservative than other treatment because it does not required removal of any tooth structure. Provided regular brushing and good oral hygiene is maintained your composite bonding should last for many years.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Dentures - DENTURES</image:title>
      <image:caption>Dentures are used for replacing the teeth and soft tissues with a prosthesis that can be removed. They can replace a full arch of teeth (complete dentures), or a number of individual or grouped tooth spaces (partial dentures).  Complete dentures are held in place by forming a seal against the palate and saliva can help significantly with this process. However to significantly improve their stability complete dentures can be held in by implants, in which there is component in the denture which locks into a corresponding component on a dental implant. Partial dentures can be held in place by design (i.e. they are made to sit into areas which prevent it from falling out), or they can have a metal base with little clasps which sit against the teeth and prevent dislodging. As partial dentures often cover large surfaces in the mouth it becomes more important than ever to ensure excellent oral hygiene routines are followed at home to prevent decay, infections or gum disease.  In all cases, the experience of the patient plays a big part in how the dentures are managed. Many people think that constructing dentures is a quick and easy process, whereas it is often the opposite. It requires experience and skill, both on the part of the dentist and the technician. Dentures can often require up to six visits by the patient, however the process can also take longer if certain stages need to be re-recorded or repeated.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Invisalign - INVISALIGN</image:title>
      <image:caption>Invisalign is the leading brand of orthodontic aligners having treated over 12 million smiles worldwide . It is used to move teeth to improve a patients smile, correct abnormalities in their bite or facilitate more treatment such a veneers or composite bonding. Invisalign aligners are thin, clear plastic aligners that the the patient wears and changes weekly. Each one of these aligners is a slightly different shape to the patients teeth which encourage the teeth to gently and predictably move. The advantages of Invisalign as compared to other orthodontic treatments are that they are practically invisible, can be removed for eating, drinking and most importantly cleaning and are far more comfortable than traditional braces. Whatsmore at the beginning of your Invisalign treatment your dentist will be able to provide you with a 3D, digital mock up of what your teeth should look like at the end of treatment. Use the link below to book in for a free consultation to discuss treatment, or if you have a question that isn’t answered by our FAQ’s below feel free to contact us.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Veneers - Veneers</image:title>
      <image:caption>A veneer is a relatively thin piece of ceramic or composite (white filling material) that is bonded onto the surface of a tooth. They can be used to restore damaged teeth, rotated teeth, or to improve aesthetics. Usually an amount of tooth preparation is required for the veneer to 'sit into' but modern techniques allow veneers to be made that stick straight onto the tooth surface. Modern porcelains also allow for an excellent final appearance, indistinguishable from a natural tooth. Whereas composite veneers offer an excellent, cost effective alternative for improving aesthetics.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Crowns/Onlays - Crowns and onlays</image:title>
      <image:caption>Crowns or onlays can be used to restore the form and function of heavily broken down or compromised teeth. They are typically made by a dental technician in a laboratory after preparing the tooth and taking impressions.  Crowns are often referred to as 'caps'. They cover the remaining parts of the natural tooth when a large amount of structure has been lost. As such, they provide what is known as 'full coverage'. Crowns can be constructed from many different materials, ranging from an all-metal gold crown, through to a high strength ceramic crown. The type of crown depends on the amount of tooth left, the tooth type and the patient preference. An onlay is similar to a crown, but it only covers the cusps of a tooth. They are particularly useful if the tooth needs to be strengthened or reinforced. They can also be used to make the tooth longer/higher, which is useful if a worn dentition is being built back up again. A permanent crown can last between five and 15 years, depending on your habits, lifestyle and oral care routine. Teeth grinding can put pressure on a crown, leading to cracks and possible damage.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Periodontal treatment - Periodontal treatment</image:title>
      <image:caption>Periodontal treatment is the treatment of periodontal disease (gum disease) by removing hardened on plaque, known as calculus, from above and below the gum line and most importantly spending adequate time instructing the patient on how to correct clean their teeth. This treatment is then reviewed on a 6 monthly or 3 monthly basis depending on the severity/ activity of the periodontal disease. The calculus removal is done using specialist instruments and occasionally with local aesthetic in order to minimise any discomfort during the procedure, as such it may be done over one or two visits depending on how much calculus removal is required. The second aspect of treatment, instructing the patient how to clean their teeth, may sound simple but is actually the most important part of the treatment. If the patient is not show how to do this the calculus will continue to reform and their periodontal disease will continue to progress. The old saying of 2 minutes brushing, twice a day is often misleading as this applies to the average patient with minimal dental work in their mouth. Quite often patients have crowns, large fillings, bridges, dentures or implants which may well need additional tools such as floss, interdental brushes, or water flosses to adequately clean around.</image:caption>

Your dentist will also discuss you current oral hygiene routine with you and if necessary will provide tips to improve. This is often carried out as part of your 6 monthly checkup.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Fixed Orthodontics - Fixed orthodontics</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fixed orthodontics is a treatment aimed at moving the teeth using wire and brackets attached to the teeth. This is carried out to improve a patient smile, correct an abnormality in the bite, or to facilitate additional treatment and is the treatment most commonly associated with treating abnormalities in a child’s bite. Modern fixed orthodontics is much more discrete than in the past and often white wire and brackets can be used to minimise the visibility of it during treatment. Often fixed orthodontics is used to correct more severe abnormalities in the bite as its ability to move teeth is generally considered greater than aligners, however it can also be a more cost effective way to move teeth. The treatment can take between 6 and 24 months to complete depending on the type of bite but your dentist will be more accurately able to advise on this so feel free to have a look at our FAQ’s below and book in for a consultation.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Bridges - Bridges</image:title>
      <image:caption>Bridges are made to restore gaps between natural teeth and are fixed in place. They can be made to look exactly like the surrounding teeth and should therefore be very discreet but require excellent oral hygiene in order to last as long as possible. How long a bridge lasts depends on many factors. The minimum expected lifespan without issue or falling out would be 5 years but in favourable circumstances they may last 15-20. Bridges are be held in by a crowned tooth or can be stuck onto the an adjacent tooth by a metal wing, with an adhesive. Sometimes bridges are held in place on either side of the gap (conventional), sometimes on just one side (cantilever); it depends on the size of the gap and how the teeth function.</image:caption>
