Services
Invisible Braces
Invisible Braces offer a discreet orthodontic solution using removable, transparent trays that gradually align teeth. Ideal for adults and teens over 14, they eliminate the discomfort of metal braces while maintaining oral hygiene. Treatment typically lasts 4-8 months with 8-10 weekly tray changes, ensuring a straighter smile without compromising aesthetics or function.
Porcelain Veneers
Custom-crafted porcelain veneers enhance tooth shape, colour, and alignment by bonding thin shells to the front surface. This treatment addresses gaps, chips, discolouration, and misalignment, delivering natural-looking results that last up to 15 years. Each veneer is tailored to match individual preferences, providing a durable, stain-resistant smile transformation.
Tooth Whitening
The ZOOM 2 laser system achieves dramatic whitening in one hour by activating a bleaching gel with light technology. Effective against stains from coffee, wine, or smoking, this in-surgery treatment ensures immediate, safe results. Patients receive aftercare guidance to maintain brightness, with options for touch-ups using custom trays from our in-house laboratory.
Dentures
Our GDC-registered laboratory creates MDD-compliant dentures using premium materials for natural aesthetics and comfort. Full or partial dentures restore chewing function and confidence, with same-day repairs available. Custom fittings ensure stability, while our team provides ongoing adjustments to maintain optimal fit and oral health.
Crowns
Crowns restore damaged or weakened teeth with bonded porcelain, ceramic, or gold restorations. These durable caps protect against further decay while improving appearance, lasting up to 15 years with proper care. Each crown is colour-matched to adjacent teeth, ensuring seamless integration with your natural smile.
