CHOICES AVAILABLE……
VENEERS
Many people wish a brighter, more attractive smile, but have discoloured, chipped, spaced, or crooked front teeth. Porcelain Laminate Veneers can provide an improved and dazzling smile in just a few appointments. Veneers are thin sections of porcelain bonded on to your tooth and feature on many television Smile make-overs.
METAL FREE CROWNS AND BRIDGES
The latest generation of all porcelain crowns and bridges have increased strength and now can be placed anywhere in the mouth. Metal free restorations are inert in the oral environment, so your gums will be pink and healthy.
INLAYS
Porcelain or Composite materials are ideal for replacing amalgam fillings. They are more aesthetically pleasing and are kinder to the opposing teeth.
IMPLANTS
An implant is used to replace a tooth that has been lost or removed. Made of titanium, the implant is inserted in the jaw bone and enables crowns, bridges or dentures to be anchored firmly in position.
METAL CERAMICS and GOLD RESTORATIONS
For excellent aesthetics and maximum strength Lincoln Ceramics are able to offer traditional metal ceramic crowns and bridges made in precious or yellow precious alloy. Also with a rim of porcelain to avoid marginal discolouration. We also produce Gold shell crowns, Gold inlays and onlays with only high quality alloys.
TOOTH WHITENING
Tooth whitening can be an effective way of lightening the natural colour of your teeth without removing any of the tooth surface. As we get older our teeth become more discoloured and your tooth surface can be stained by smoking, food and drink such as tea, coffee and red wine.
Professional bleaching by laser or gel are the most common form of tooth whitening. Your dentist can advise you if you are suitable for the treatment, and will supervise if you are.
TOOTH COLOUR MATCHING
Our smile designing studio incorporates the latest digital technology including the Shade Vision System, easyshade from Panadent and digital camera equipment. This allows dentists and laboratory technicians a method to improve the accuracy of dental prosthesis colour matching with difficult shades. Shade vision provides accurate coloured images of teeth versus single “shade guide” colour values to help the technician achieve a better quality restoration for your patient.
The colour match takes place in our shade imaging studio where cross infection procedures apply.
IMPORTANT In the anterior region certain cases can be demanding, so we recommend a CUSTOM SHADE FINISH before fitting in the surgery. Challenging cases may require subsquent appointments to meet your patient's expectations.
Private Cosmetic Consultation
You may visit the laboratory for a Private cosmetic consultation with the technicians producing your restorations.You may preview our complete product range. As we use premium products the lab can offer you up to 5 years warranty on most of the work we supply. Your dentist can spend more time discussing your case and providing you with quality care.
WHY DO THE ALTERNATIVES TO THE NHS COST MORE?
The government does not contribute to any part of your Private treatment plan. The latest products cost more because of the significant investment and research involved in developing these premium products. Your dentist can spend more time providing you with quality treatment.
