One aspect of dental care that people rarely take into consideration is the dental laboratory and its technicians. At A Better Smile Dental Centre, we have the advantage of having our very own lab onsite. Our dentist and technicians work closely together using moulds and impressions of your teeth to create the appliances such as mouth guards and bridges, dentures, crowns and veneers to help you get the Hollywood Smile you’ve always wanted.
Working in such close proximity gives us the ability to have quality control over the products created in our laboratory. If for example, you were having dentures fitted created for whatever reason they weren’t quite comfortable, we don’t have to send it away to be altered. There’s no lengthy delays waiting for couriers. We get the problem sorted, straight away.
With our technicians working in the same building, if necessary, they are able to take part in the consultation process. They will be able to recommend the perfect shade of white for your new smile so that it complements your existing teeth and skin colour.
Another advantage of having our laboratory onsite is, it enables us to keep our prices lower. We’re not making multiple visits to an offsite lab or using urgent couriers to ensure our service is fast and efficient. It also saves you from having to come back, time and time again or phone to see if your dentures, mouth guard or veneers or retainers are ready for collection.
ORAL SCANNING
Our dental scanner uses exclusive technology to generate 3-D images of dental structures, soft tissues, nerve paths and bone in the craniofacial region in a single scan. Images obtained to allow for more precise treatment.
DENTAL 3D PRINTING
After an oral scan, we use the software to plan the modifications we will make in surgery.To test our results, we print our new design and send the diagnosis to the dentist, who will then explain the patient's treatment plan and demonstrate how will work in the patient's mouth. This gives us a significant advantage since the patient will have a better idea of what to expect.
DENTAL PORCELAIN VENEERS
Our team can create a precise set of porcelain dental veneers to cover the surface of your natural teeth and improve your smile.Unlike crowns, veneers cover only the visible parts of your teeth. Always with a natural look and always personalized to adapt to your smile.
DENTAL BRIDGES
Our dental technicians can also create a dental bridge composed of two crowns for the teeth on each side of the space, joining the gap created by one or more missing teeth.
DENTAL CROWNS
We build dental crowns which are made-to-measure restorations that fit over the existing prepared natural tooth and replace the natural crown.
CUSTOM MADE SPORTS MOUTHGUARDS
If you practice a sport and need to protect yourself in A better smile, we create custom-made mouth guards that are affordable, of high quality and offer the best protection and comfort.
ORTHODONTIC RETAINERS
When the braces are removed, the teeth tend to want to return to their original position. Our dental technicians create custom retainers to maintain their position.
CUSTOM MADE MOUTH GUARD FOR BRUXISM OR TEETH GRINDING
We offer a selection of custom-made guards to help with different severities of grinding.
