This patient attended yesterday with a broken tooth in the smile area. This is an increasingly common finding with old fillings, crowns and teeth in people of all ages. We now have the perfect solution!
Our patient is a very busy business man and he was keen to get the problem resolved as soon as possible with the best solution involving minimum time. He was seen and completed his treatment the same day. He was over the moon with the whole experience.
At Parrock Street Dental Care (www.parrockstreetdental.co.uk or www.kentcosmeticdentists.co.uk) we are one of only a few practices in the country who have a Cerec Machine- one of the most advanced methods of designing and producing crowns/veneers and half crowns (inlays/onlays) to strengthen and improve the appearance of teeth.
The Cerec machine uses CAD-Cam technology (just like how they make cars) to manufacture these crowns and veneers the SAME DAY in just one simple appointment. No impression is required as only a picture is needed and no unsightly temporaries or the inconvenience of being numb and attending for a second appointment.
During the appointment you may relax and watch a film/play/comedy/documentary of your choice from our broad selection with our in chair dvd entertainment system.
In short it is the perfect way of having the perfect solution to an age old increasing problem.

Sometimes patients have the mistaken notion that if they have broken their denture they have to see a dentist to get a new one, however that is not always the case. On many occasions a denture can be repaired or added to without needing any impressions by the dentist.
Colin has been a dental technician for over 30 years and thoroughly enjoys his job. He works Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings and is available to help repair and add to any broken dentures or replace any missing teeth onto a denture.
You do not have to be registered at our practice in order to use the services of our dental laboratory. You can bring your broken denture to us and after Colin has made an assessment of the denture we can advise you of the proposed course of action needed in order to fix your denture.
Just like an optician we recommend two pairs of glasses, We recommend that our denture wearing patients always have a spare set of dentures made, in the unlikely event that their permanent dentures are misplaced, dropped, broken etc….. they will then not have to go without any teeth as the process of making a great fitting and looking new denture can take a few appointments over the course of a few weeks.
As a fixed alternative to dentures patients may want to consider implant supported dentures or bridges
