Gentle , non invasive dentistry is a breakthrough cosmetic and essential restoration technique that preserves the original, healthy tooth structures and does not require painful shots. The procedure allows dentists to correct chips and rotated teeth and restore tooth erosion without using anaesthetic needles, drills, or temporaries.

Traditional tooth replacement or veneer techniques involve grinding away 1-2 mm or more of natural tooth, requiring injections. Removing this amount of tooth structure can sometimes damage pulp and potentially require a root canal. With the new non-invasive innovative bonding techniques, patients will no longer experience pain, discomfort, or sensitivity of conventional veneering methods.

This philosophy is nothing new to the dentists at Lane Ends Dental Practice with over 24 years of experience in non invasive and minimally invasive cosmetic dentistry as these techniques have always been the advanced cornerstones of their ethos in gentle dental care.

The recent developments in Non-invasive dental procedures encompasses a number of breakthrough in cosmetic and structural restoration techniques that preserve, strengthen, and protect the teeth while dramatically improving the appearance of smiles without the removal of sensitive tooth structure or the need for shots.

As age creeps up us on us faster than we would like, Gravity takes effect and our smiles are not immune. The upper lip begins to drop lower, hiding upper teeth in the smile. Lower lip drops too, showing more of the lower teeth. Teeth wear down, causing the jaws to close closer together, resulting in downward turn of the corners of the mouth.

We conceal these signs of ageing with hair colour and all kinds of anti-aging creams, but our teeth tell all. Old crowns and worn teeth can often use a “lift” to restore them to a more youthful appearance. Thanks to non-invasive dentistry worn teeth and dental work can be painlessly rejuvenated.
