Take care of your teeth and your look

Your teeth are a vital part of your life. They allow you to choose from the incredible range of foods in the world. They are instrumental in speaking clearly. They also form a central part of your look – your smile. With all that in mind, it’s worth looking after them so that they can continue to serve you for years to come.

All that being said, the world takes its toll on our bodies. Even if you have a good dental hygiene routine, it’s possible that one or two holes have started to appear in your teeth. Dental decay can be exacerbated by certain foods and drinks, lifestyle choices and problems with the alignment of your teeth. When you visit us at Leamington Spa Dental Practice, we will do an examination of your mouth to check whether your teeth need any attention.

White Fillings in Leamington SpaFillings in Leamington Spa – the basics

If you visit your dentist regularly, they can check for signs of cavities. Caught early enough, they may be able to be repaired without fillings.

If you do need a filling, the more you know about the process, the better prepared you will be. Fillings are one of the most basic dental treatments. They have been around for a long time.

In order to fit a filling, your dentist will drill away the area where you have decay. A filler material is then added to the appropriate spot to plug the hole and protect the tooth. This substance hardens quickly and becomes durable enough to withstand the rigours of everyday use.

Why white fillings in Leamington Spa?

You will have a choice when it comes to the filler material that is used for any fillings you need. Traditionally, a silver-coloured material, composed of mercury and other metals, are used. These are still common today and usually available on the NHS. They are called amalgam fillings. They are hard wearing but visible in the mouth. Some patients do not like these fillings being obvious when you open your mouth.

White fillings are also available. They are designed to blend in with your teeth and so they are actually more tooth-coloured. It used to be that white fillings were not quite as durable as amalgam fillings but there are materials available now that give comparable longevity.  Many patients now choose white fillings as a more aesthetically pleasing solution.

Brighten your smile quickly and easily

The quickest and easiest way to give your smile a boost is by removing stubborn stains with teeth whitening. This is probably why teeth whitening is the most popular of all cosmetic dentistry treatments.

At Leamington Spa Dental Practice, we provide two different ways for you to give your smile that lift, which can also lift your self-esteem, and make all the difference to how you interact with the people around you.

teeth-whiteningWe also offer two different brands of teeth whitening treatments: Pola and Enlighten. Enlighten is the only brand to guarantee a B1 shade for your teeth (this is the brightest white you can achieve).

The quickest treatment option is to come into our clinic for teeth whitening in Leamington Spa. What makes this option so fast is that we do the teeth whitening for you in the dentist’s chair. You will be treated by either Dr Samantha Kutty, our principal dentist, or Dr Sanjeev Kutty or Dr Pamela Kainth, our two associate dentists. Support will come from one of our four dental nurses: Lydia Brooker, Chantelle Field, Rachael Broughor Monica Chand. These six, plus our hygienist, Amneet Sidhu, make up our friendly dental team.

With in-chair teeth whitening, we protect your gums and lips with a special barrier before applying the whitening gel to your teeth. The gel does not start bleaching your teeth until it is activated by a UV lamp. Once our dentist has turned on the lamp, all you need to do is relax for an hour. Once the treatment is complete, you will be amazed and impressed with how clean and bright your teeth look after only 60 minutes.

If you prefer, we can also offer you a kit for home whitening. For this, you need to come in for an appointment with us to be fitted with a tray that exactly matches the contours of your teeth. Once this has been custom made, you take it home and fill it with whitening gel. It will fit snugly over your teeth. You will need to wear it for a few hours every day, or overnight. This is a gentler way to whiten your teeth, and the results will start to show after a couple of weeks of regular use.

We will offer a number of suggestions after this and discuss them thoroughly with you. You will then be in a great position to make a well-informed choice about what you want to do next. The final decision is yours and we make sure that you feel in control every step of the way. We achieve this by offering a detailed timetable of treatments, explaining what will happen at each appointment and by letting you know about all costs up front.

You can experience one of our favourite gadgets when you have a smile makeover in Leamington Spa at our clinic – a sneak preview of your smile. We gather together all the information we need from your mouth including, where necessary, x-rays and feed it into the computer. This will create a 3D image of you smile that we can then apply treatment plans to so that we can all see what will happen. For some patients, this is the motivation to start because they have been able to see just how good it will look in the end.
