Bonding
Bonding is a composite resin filling placed
in the back teeth as well as the front teeth. Composites are the
solution for restoring decayed teeth, making cosmetic improvements
and even changing the color of your teeth or the reshaping of
teeth.
Bonding will lighten any stains you may have,
close up minor gaps and can be used to correct crooked teeth.
Basically, bonding will cover any natural flaws applying a thin
coating of a plastic material on the front surface of your teeth.
Smile Enhancement Procedures
A
smile enhancement procedure is one of the most popular options
in dentistry today. The soft tissue gums are re-shaped to allow
for less of a gummy smile, allowing for more of your teeth to
shine through.
Natural Crowns and Veneers
If a tooth has a significant breakdown or has been weakened by
a large filling, a crown will restore its strength and natural
beauty. Porcelain veneers are strong and durable facings for teeth
that are the most natural looking restorations available in dentistry.
If teeth are chipped, cracked, discoloured or
poorly aligned, veneers will restore the natural beauty to your
smile.
Dental Implants
When a tooth has been removed to severe breakdown, an implant
is the perfect choice. Implants are used to replace missing roots
with a post placed in the jawbone that will bond with the bone
around it. This allows for one or more false teeth to be held
in place.
Implants are permanent replacements for missing
teeth and are a strong, durable, and comfortable option to restore
function and beauty.
Provisional Restoration
A provisional restoration is a temporary crown that looks and
feels great. It is then taken off when the custom made permanent
crown is ready to be put in.
Naturally Beautiful Dentures
Very often dentures can look artificial. Dentures are prosthetic
teeth that replace missing teeth supported by hard and soft tissues
of the oral cavity.
We take great pride in our ability to make very
natural dentures that fit comfortably, function, and look great.
TMJ Treatment
If you have experienced jaw joint pain (TMJ), clicks, clenching,
teeth grinding, headaches or tooth wear, chances are these conditions
are related to TMD (Temporomandibular joint disorder).
Many of these conditions can be predictably improved
or eliminated with simple measures.
Teeth Whitening
Naturally teeth range from light grey and yellow tones. Teeth
naturally darken with age and are affected by stains on the surface
of teeth from food, drink, or tobacco.
Surface whitening and bleaching are services
offered that will lighten your teeth several shades.
Tooth Grinding
Also referred to as Bruxism that involves clenching or grinding
of the teeth. Bruxism is caused by the activation of the reflex
chewing actions most of which happens during sleep or during a
nap.
This condition can be treated with a mouth guard
that helps prevent tooth abrasion.

Dr. Thordarson is the founder of “Fio
Joy (to become joyful)”, Oakville’s first makeover
story. Susan was our “Fio Joy” Journey candidate for
2005. Please visit our special Fio Joy website at www.fiojoy.com
for a detailed story about Susan and a complete set of Susan’s
transitional photographs.
FioJoy Makeover Story
Excellent Results in Oakville
Susan is a young woman of 27 years who was missing
15 teeth from birth. She had jaw joint clicking in the right jaw
joint, misaligned lower molars and wear patterns caused from the
misaligned teeth as a result of numerous spaces.
Susan’s first visit was for a thorough
dental examination including x-rays and photographs. Plaster models
were made followed by a wax model of the perfect set of teeth.
Once the analysis was complete, Dr. Thordarson and Susan mapped
out a treatment plan to accomplish their goals.
By looking at Susan’s “before”
picture, you immediately notice the missing teeth and the large
gaps that remain. Orthodontic braces were used to straighten her
upper teeth and to move them closer together.
Once her teeth were aligned, we began the restorative
work. Dr. T prepared all the upper teeth in one appointment. He
then prepared temporary crowns.
The next visit was to prepare all the lower teeth
and insert temporary crowns. The reason we create temporary crowns
and bridges is to allow our clients to visualize the look and
to decide if the shade and the shape of the teeth are appropriate
for the face. It also allows the client to “try the teeth”
to see if any changes or refinements need to be made. Only then,
are final crowns and bridges made and placed.
When the temporaries were inserted, Susan was
very pleased with her new look. Throughout her life Susan developed
the habit of smiling in a way that would hide her teeth. She needed
to learn to smile again. She had to learn to smile widely and
show off her lovely, new smile. She could now share it with the
world but it would take getting used to.
The temporary crowns are so comfortable that
many of our clients ask if they can keep them instead of changing
to permanent crowns. Susan was no different. She was very pleased
with her temporary smile but she knew that these were only to
check for bite shade and shape. Once we are sure the crowns are
correct and the client can speak normally, we have the crowns
and bridges made by the artists at our dental laboratory.
Susan’s next appointment was to insert
the crowns and bridges, making sure that they are perfect in colour,
shape, size and occlusion. Dr. Thordarson again checked the way
Susan spoke and pronounced her words. The final appointment was
a few days after the insertion appointment. At that time, her
bite was checked again and her speech rechecked. On November 10,
2005, Dr. Thordarson presented Susan to the public at a special
Fio Joy Gala for over 200 people at the Oakville Club. The Mayor
of Oakville was in attendance to see Susan’s transformation.
Susan was delighted with her new look!
