Another smile transformed.

This lady had be seeing me for several years. A couple of years before I first saw her she had a suffered a fall and had damaged her upper front teeth. She was due to get married earlier this year and wanted to transform her smile so she could have the confidence to smile in her wedding photographs.


Here is a picture of her before we started doing any dental work.




After an extensive consultation we decided on the following treatment options. First, my patient felt her teeth were rather dark, we therefore decided to carry out some tooth whitening of both her upper and lower jaws. Second, we both felt that the appearance of her two upper central incisors could be improved. They had been damaged in a fall and had been rebuilt using white filling material. However, over time, these had discoloured and no longer looked brilliant. We decided that we would rebuild these teeth using porcelain veneers. Porcelain veneers are thin facings of porcelain that are adhesively bonded to a patient's tooth to improve its appearance or to protect a damaged tooth surface.


Our patient had two further visits and two porcelain veneers were placed on her upper central incisors.


Here is a picture of our patient's finished smile.





Our patient was delighted with her new smile, and she looked great for all the photographs taken at her recent wedding.

Does this sort of treatment interest you? We would be delighted to hear from you, to  see if we can help enhance your smile at The Spicer Road Dental Practice. You can contact us via our website here.

Maybe I should write about some dentistry, work done by me at Spicer Road Dental Practice

Today marked my return to work. I've only worked a day and a half since the 17th December. I have had this short break because I was due to have an operation but unfortunately this was cancelled at short notice. My nurse had booked leave so I was only able to work when other dentists were away from the practice freeing up members of support staff.

2009 was a year of big change for the Spicer Road Dental Practice, a long time member of the team left, and a new dentist started in August. As a business owner 2009 was hard, but things have begun to settle down. The management team have been working with a management coach and now have a clear idea of our future vision, purpose and goals. 2010 is the beginning of a new decade and a new beginning for the Spicer Road Dental Practice.

I am looking forward to another year in dentistry, working with my great team, restoring and
rebuilding smiles, giving our patients the confidence to dazzle their families with their new smiles.

If you are interested in seeing us for a dental health and smile check, please take a look at our website at www.spicerroaddentalpractice.com , and contact our brilliant reception team for an appointment. Your new smile awaits.

This is a sample of some of our work.
