Cosmetic Dentistry in Bryanston
Feeling good when you smile is a true asset. Remember, your smile speaks before you even say a word!
We all know that having a bright, healthy and beautiful smile enhances our appearance and allows us to smile with confidence. Sometimes just a few minor changes make all the difference. In other cases, you may want to address many teeth or the whole mouth.
Dr Engelbrecht helps patients achieve the smiles they’ve always wanted. Using her vast expertise, she will recommend the treatments you need to achieve the smile of your dreams.
Dental Implants
Implants are a great way to replace damaged or missing teeth. They are artificial roots (usually titanium) that are surgically placed into the lower or upper jaw bone. The teeth attached to implants (usually ceramic crowns) are very natural looking and restore or often enhance a patient’s smile.
Dental implants are very strong, stable, and durable and will last many years. On occasion, they’ll have to be replaced or re-tightened due to normal wear. All dental implant cases are done with a multidisciplinary approach. Dr Engelbrecht works closely with implant specialists to ensure that patients receive the best possible results.
Ceramic Bridges
A ceramic bridge is one of many treatment options available for replacing a missing tooth. If for any reason, you have lost a tooth or teeth which have resulted in a gap between your remaining teeth, you are most likely a candidate for a bridge. The bridge will restore your smile and bring back the integrity of your bite, so you can feel confident and eat with comfort.
Ceramic Crowns
A ceramic crown is a great option if your tooth has fractures, severe decay, a root canal treatment, or you simply want to improve the tooth’s appearance. A dental crown covers the entire natural tooth and fits at the base of the gum line.
Our crowns are metal-free and completed in just one visit using CAD-CAM technology from CEREC®. Your crown will look and feel just like your own tooth and often even better – you won’t even know it’s there! Our ceramic crowns are also extremely durable, so they can last a long time, with proper hygiene maintenance, of course!
Ceramic Veneers
Ceramic veneers are a fast and effective solution for those who feel self-conscious or unhappy about the appearance of their smile. Veneers are extremely thin, custom-made covers made from ceramic. They are designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, improving the appearance of your smile. Veneers can change the shape, colour, size and length of your teeth. Veneers can be completed in just one visit using CAD-CAM technology from CEREC®.
Teeth Whitening
Let us put the sparkle back into your smile!
Have you tried over-the-counter teeth whitening toothpaste or whitening strips and been disappointed by the results? These teeth whitening options often don’t live up to their promises and can leave you sceptical of tooth whitening in general. Zoom whitening offers our patients a convenient in-office whitening solution. In just 90 minutes, we can lift stains and reveal a polished new look!
Another option of teeth whitening from our practice is a take-home whitening system. We create a custom tray for the whitening gel, and will advise you on how often to wear the trays. This method is easy to incorporate into your time at home while watching TV, reading or unwinding.
Clear Aligners
The clear alternative to braces!
Gone are the days of broken wires and flossing nightmares! Clear aligners are a proven way to achieve healthy tooth movement with ease of brushing and flossing, and without the unsightly appearance of metal brackets. There has never been a better time to straighten your teeth, and achieve the smile of your dreams!
