Teeth Straightening
At David Neal Dental Hastings we can transform crooked and crowded teeth into beautiful straight teeth and a smile you love -whatever your age.
Beautiful smiles with Invisalign clear aligners
We offer a range of teeth straightening treatments to help you achieve straighter teeth, including Invisalign clear aligners. Invisalign is the world-renowned near-invisible teeth straightening treatment that can start to deliver results in as little as 6 months. Invisalign aligners treatment is only available from dentists who have completed Invisalign specialised training.
How does Invisalign treatment work?
With Invisalign, you wear a series of clear custom made aligners that are specially created to correct crowded teeth. Each aligner gradually adjusts the position of your teeth until you achieve a straighter smile. Made from a clear, flexible plastic, the aligners are virtually invisible – there are no brackets or wires on show, unlike traditional dental braces.
The benefits of Invisalign clear aligners
A key benefit of Invisalign is that the aligners are easily removed, so you can take them out when you are eating and drinking, or cleaning your teeth.
Invisalign treatment also comes with free tooth whitening – so you really can have straighter teeth and whiter teeth – a stunning, bright new smile.
Ask your David Neal Dental dentist about tooth straightening today – we will find the right solution for you.
Teeth Whitening
Everyone’s teeth become less bright over time, in part due to lifestyle habits such as drinking red wine, tea and coffee.
Taking good care of your mouth with a routine that includes brushing, flossing and regular visits with dental hygienists, helps to minimise stains.
Professional teeth whitening helps to visibly lighten and brighten your smile quickly and safely.
If you’d love a whiter, brighter smile, your dentist at David Neal Dental Hastings offers a choice of tooth whitening procedures.
Boutique Whitening
We offer Boutique Whitening – a premium at-home teeth whitening procedure that delivers superior results.
A key benefit is that you’ll notice a whitening effect in just a few days.
Using a double action formula, Boutique Whitening gels remove surface stains whilst being absorbed deep into the teeth.
Your dentist will confirm your suitability at a consultation and will instruct you on how to use the trays and gels. Top up gel to whiten teeth after initial treatment is available to buy from the practice.
What does teeth whitening treatment involve?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dentistry treatment that uses safe, professionally approved whitening products that bleach your teeth to restore a brighter smile.
Your dentist takes impressions of your teeth to create custom made trays that exactly fit the shape of your teeth and gums.
They will show you how to apply the whitening gel at home, usually over the course of a few weeks.
Treatments can be in-practice with a dentist, at home using professional whitening kits, or a combination of both.
Can anyone have their teeth whitened?
Most adults are suitable for teeth whitening, but it is important to be professionally assessed and treated by a dentist. Always seek the advice of a dental professional.
Some people may be unsuitable, for example if they have crowns or gum disease.
Your dentist or dental care professional, such as a hygienist, will help you choose the best whitening treatment for you.
How white can I have my smile?
Every patient is individual, but you can expect the colour of your teeth to lighten by several shades.
Your dentist will show you a colour chart at the start and end of treatment so you can see the effect that whitening has had over the course of a few weeks.
Veneers
Veneers are a cosmetic treatment that can be used to enhance the appearance of a single tooth or the whole section of your front teeth.
A thin tooth-coloured shell is bonded onto the teeth to hide imperfections such as crooked, chipped or stained teeth.
It is a procedure where only minimal preparation of the treated tooth or teeth is required.
What type of veneers are available?
Porcelain veneers are a thin layer of porcelain that is placed over the surface of the selected teeth to give you a whiter, more symmetrical smile.
Composite veneers use a composite resin that is applied by your dentist over your normal tooth or teeth.
How long does it take to have veneers fitted?
Veneer treatment requires patients to attend two appointments with their dentist.
The first appointment is for the preparation of your tooth or teeth, and second for the veneer fitting.
Crowns and Bridges
Dental crowns and bridges are often used to enhance the look of your teeth and your smile. Crowns are made from tooth-coloured porcelain and protect weakened, decaying or heavily filled teeth.
They can improve your oral health by helping prevent the spread of infection to adjacent teeth and gums. They can also be used for cosmetic reasons and in restorative dentistry.
Bridges
Dental bridges are artificial teeth that are designed to fill gaps left by one or more missing teeth.
They are supported by the neighbouring (adjacent) teeth, whether natural or dental implants.
They remain permanently in place, so are not removable like dentures.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are a long lasting dental treatment for people looking to replace loose or missing teeth, or dentures.
The closest dental option to natural teeth, dental implants restore your oral health and your ability to bite and chew without pain or worry. They also give you back natural-looking teeth and a beautiful smile.
They are a good option for people preferring a “fixed” solution as they do not need to be removed at night for cleaning.
At David Neal Dental Hastings we offer the advanced All on 4 (Teeth in a Day) same day dental implant technique.
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically inserted into your jawbone to replace your natural tooth roots.
A single crown, or full bridge of artificial teeth, is then securely fixed onto the dental implants to replace your natural teeth.
They remain permanently in place, and are not removable like a denture.
Dental implants can be used to replace single, multiple or full arches of teeth.
At David Neal Dental Hastings we offer an advanced “Teeth in a Day” same day dental implant treatment which enables full sets of fixed teeth, your oral health and a beautiful new smile to be restored in just one day.
The Teeth in a Day technique is sometimes known as All on Four, smile in a day or same day teeth.
To learn more, speak to your dentist or book a free consultation today.
