SMILE DESIGNING

Most people are surprised to know that modern dentistry and techniques can help to reshape their teeth, smile and entire appearance and help them lead a more confident and joyful life.

Designing a smile requires an expert doctor with years of experience and the creativity and skills to deliver good results. Smile designing includes coming to the dentist with a vision of what you want the smile to be like . the dentist then performs a series of exams on your teeth like evaluating the bite, the colour of the rest of the teeth, the shape etc and will take digital pictures of what they currently look like. Then by using designing softwareand incorporating the patient's desires, they are able to create an " after" image to show the patient what they could look like after the treatment has been completed. The patient can then either accept the changes or in turn suggest some more specifics and once the final look has been agreed upon, the treatment is commenced and the end result is achieved as close to the 'mock-up' as possible. This way , the patient is able to get a fairly good idea of what they could look like prior to going in for any major reconstructive work.

We also do full mouth reconstruction /rehabilitation which involve

* Severely Flourosed teeth which are malformed and discoloured
* Severe Bruxism cases where teeth have been ground down leading to sensitivity or exposure of the nerves - here the bite is re-established and sensitivity eliminated by use of crowns and occlusal guards to discontinue the habit
* In deep bite cases wherein the bite can be opened orthodontically or via strategically placed crowns
* Tetracycline staining , Diastemas, Malformed teeth, Crowding of teeth etc can all be corrected with Crowns, veneers and Laminates.

In today's world of improved technology, confidence and aesthetics can be largely improved upon by utilizing the techniques available from expert hands...we at Wockhardt strive hard on providing our patients that option..
