At Tindale Smile Studio, we strongly believe, as dental professionals, that cosmetic dentistry must prioritise health, function and the long term wellbeing of your teeth and gums. Our Clinical directors are committed to provide responsible, minimally invasive and appropriate care individually tailored to your needs.

What is a dental veneer? Veneers are a great option for creating a more uniform and symmetrical smile. This is great for people whose teeth are roughly in the right position and are concerned about chips, stains and misaligned teeth. A veneer is a thin facing that is glued to the front of the teeth. They can be made of porcelain or composite materials.
Veneers

• Repair broken or chipped teeth
• Improve the colour of teeth
• Change the shape of teeth
• Improve the position of misaligned teeth
• Close spaces between teeth
• Mask discoloured fillings
• Hide stains

We offer two types of veneers — composite and porcelain.

Porcelain veneers are our premium option for veneers. These are made of custom thin shells of porcelain. They tend not to stain or wear easily and offer a longer-lasting solution than composite veneers.

Composite veneers are carefully created directly onto your tooth using a tooth-coloured composite material. These are a lower investment than porcelain veneers, however, they may last shorter.

Composite bonding is a wonderful option for patients concerned about minor cosmetic issues such as chips, gaps between teeth and small discolouration. Bonding involves the use of modern composite materials that blend with teeth to change their shape, size or colour. The advantages of this technique is that no tooth reduction is required and it is easy to repair and maintain. This is often best when used in conjunction with tooth whitening.

Tooth whitening is a simple and inexpensive way to transform your smile.
We have found that at-home whitening trays consistently yield the best results. For those patients in a hurry, Zoom whitening is available.

What are the advantages of a tray-based home whitening system over an in-office process?

• It delivers equivalent, if not better, results.
• Initial and subsequent treatments are inexpensive.
• The process yields less sensitivity.

Home Whitening – What Can I Expect?
At-home whitening protocols such as Boutique involve several easy steps. It’s super easy to fit your whitening routine around your normal day-to-day activities, which is one of the reasons our patients love at-home whitening so much.

Our premier whitening system is the B1 kit from Boutique Whitening Systems© . This system utilises custom made trays and 16% carbamide peroxide whitening gel. We have chosen this solution not only for the superior results, but also due to the reduced risk of sensitivity and the longevity of whitening. When worn for a minimum of four hours a day for twenty days will deliver guaranteed significant improvement in shade.

1. Initial consultation
An initial consultation is required. Your dentist will need to check your teeth over to make sure there are no underlying issues like decay or gum disease before treatment. Prior to tooth whitening an EMS Airflow© clean is essential to remove any existing stains. We will answer any questions you have about treatment.

2. Creating Your Whitening Trays.
Your dentist will scan your mouth using a state-of-the-art Trios© digital scanner. These scans are sent away to the laboratory, where bespoke whitening trays are constructed. At this appointment you will also be issued with Black Diamond Toothpaste which you will use
daily in preparation for the whitening process.

3. Whitening Your Teeth (The At-home Part):
We will provide you with your trays once they arrive back from the laboratory. You can begin whitening your teeth at home. We will show you how to administer the 16% Carbamide peroxide whitening solution to your trays, using plastic whitening syringes.
