Smile Of The Month – February 2020
Smilefast is a new method of dental treatment which offers a smile makeover in a simple; fast (hence the name!) and cost effective manner. Brightside Dental’s dentists Dr Ketan Shah and Paarth Darbar have undertaken training to provide this exciting treatment option.
Ketan Shah was one of the first 100 dentists in the UK to become a Smilefast accredited dentist. He recently carried out treatment for a long-standing patient of the practice. Pooja was unhappy with her smile, despite undergoing various dental treatments in the past including orthodontic treatment; teeth whitening and composite bonding.
She was soon to be getting married and wanted a treatment option that could give her a smile to be confident for her wedding and treatment that could be completed in a short time and in a cost-effective manner. Smilefast gave her all of the above. We were able to improve the positions of Pooja’s upper front teeth which were slanted; along with the shape and colour.
The treatment involves initially planning so that patients can see how their new smile could look before committing to treatment. the second phase is a trial smile whereby a matrix is made and the planned new smile created in the mouth with a temporary filling material, which allows the patient to see how their new smile will look and if needed, any further changes can be made at this stage. The final stage is the Smilefast treatment itself, where composite (tooth coloured) filling material is used in a custom made matrix to create the new smile. This visit can take as little as 1 hour and the patient leaves with their brand new smile.
