Aesthetics and dental prostheses
Whitening
Over the years, teeth lose their natural color, causing the smile to lose its attractiveness and youthful appearance. The solution for most of these cases is
With teeth whitening we achieve a lightening of the shade of the teeth while preserving that difference in tones making a brighter and more natural smile.
>Recommendations
Before whitening, a dental cleaning and the removal of carious processes are recommended.
>Anaesthesia
Teeth whitening does not require anesthesia as it is a painless procedure.
>Treatment
This technique can be performed at home or in the dental office , the latter being the one we recommend. A 60-minute visit is necessary and the whitening effect must be reinforced with a treatment that is given for home.
In-office whitening is done in three steps:
- Lip and gum protection
- Application of the bleaching substance.
- Activation by the whitening gel in different ways depending on each case (laser, LED…)
For the home treatment, splints will be made that are filled with gel and will be kept at home for an hour on the days specified by us.
>Aftercare
The days immediately after whitening, certain precautions should be taken such as not eating foods with dyes such as wine, coffee, tea…
If tooth sensitivity appears, it should be treated with special liquids to make the sensitivity disappear.
>Results
In more than 95% of cases the result is excellent, in those cases that are not very favorable the result will also be satisfactory.
>Frequently Asked Questions
Is teeth whitening good for whitening any tooth?
No, there are some discolorations in which the same level of whitening is not achieved as in normal teeth, such as tetracline discoloration. This should be assessed by dentists specializing in Dental Aesthetics. Even so, you will always get a brighter color than before the treatment.
How long does teeth whitening last?
Whitening does not go away over the years. It is true that over the years the tooth continues its aging process and will lose shine, so over the years a reinforcement may be needed that can be done comfortably at home.
Veneers
One of the most commonly used treatments in Dental Aesthetics are porcelain veneers. Veneers are made in the dental laboratory to the exact measure of the preparation that is carried out in the dental office. This preparation involves minimal wear and tear on the tooth surface intended for the space that the ceramic will occupy.
This method that we use at Clínica Bajo is highly effective as it corrects imperfections and visibly improves the appearance of the teeth in a simple and minimally invasive way.
The placement of the veneer or crown will depend on the degree of preparation required by the tooth, since this minimum preparation is not always possible to hide the defects of the denture. In severe cases , crowns will be placed with the same technique and materials as the veneer. They are pieces that are attached to the tooth and once placed they have the same resistance as natural teeth.
>Recommendations
Good gum health is necessary before veneer preparation.
>Anaesthesia
It is performed under local anesthesia.
>Treatment
After a thorough study of the case, the pieces involved are prepared and an impression is taken with a high-precision material that allows the laboratory to work on this measurement for the production of the veneers.
In most cases, it will be necessary to make temporary veneers for a period of 10 days. After this time, the veneers will be permanently cemented.
>Aftercare
Tooth sensitivity may appear that will disappear in a short period of time.
Over the years or due to bone loss, sometimes unsightly spaces between the teeth appear. This causes the appearance of black triangles when smiling that greatly detract from the smile.
At Clínica Bajo we offer you in a single session the removal of these black spaces in a very conservative way without touching your tooth enamel or the need to send anything to the dental laboratory that would make the treatment very expensive.
Over time, teeth lose shine and luminosity and wear down, resulting in a dull and aged-looking smile. At Clínica Bajo we have techniques to make you recover that youthful smile.
To recover the luminous tone we have a number one teeth whitening system in the world: ZOOM Professional Whitening System. Hydrogen peroxide is the active ingredient in such a system and has been used safely and effectively for years. In just 45 minutes your teeth will be noticeably whiter.
To restore the worn edge of the teeth we use adhesive techniques and without having to almost touch the tooth we recover that youthful appearance of the smile that we lose when the incisial edges are worn.
We also have microinstruments and with the help of a microscope we perform gum disinfection to prevent bone loss and recover that pink tone of the soft tissues that also give an unhealthy appearance to the smile.
A dental prosthesis is an element that is placed in the patient’s mouth on the tooth or on the previously placed dental implant. This helps us to restore the anatomy, both in aesthetics and functions, of a tooth or several teeth.
The objective is the functional recovery and replacement of teeth that cannot be treated conservatively.
There are several types of dentures:
>Fixed prostheses on teeth
There are several types of fixed prostheses on natural teeth, which can be veneers, crowns or bridges. Unlike veneers, crowns are full tooth covering and are also made with ceramic materials.
Bridges, on the other hand, are used to replace a missing tooth, leaning on adjacent teeth, although it is a technique that is used less and less, with dental implants being the ideal solution in these cases.
>Fixed prostheses on implants
It is the most comfortable, effective and practical solution for the patient with dental implants. With this type of prosthesis we recover the masticatory and vocal function and we will be able to show off a perfect smile again.
There are fixed prostheses both for complete arches that have been left without teeth, and to replace several or a single tooth. To place them, the prosthodontist will have to perform several tests in the patient’s mouth, to make sure that the color or shape, among other things, are correct.
Prostheses on implants allow the recovery of masticatory and aesthetic function, also helping the patient to regain self-esteem.
>Removable dentures
They are those that the patient can remove and put back on at any time. They usually rest on the gums, mucosa or surrounding teeth and nowadays they are used less and less since fixed prostheses are usually the best solution in most cases.
