        "text": "A cosmetic dentist is a doctor that is focused on improving the aesthetics of the teeth and gums. It is a field that is not taught at dental schools due to undergraduate training being focused on maintaining dental health. Those who choose to undertake further education and rigorous training can learn about the complex field of cosmetics after carrying out general or routine dentistry for a period of time. It is important to note that all dental practitioners are trained in retaining health, but the expertise and knowledge in aesthetics is variable and is not quality assured by any one body or academy. There are academies such as the BACD and the BAAD, which are both tentpoles of exceptional dental clinical standards. Our reputable cosmetic dentists are some of the best in the country, and have passed the rigorous tests to be Accredited by the British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry."

        "text": "The best cosmetic dentist is judged by you, and could be considered the person you are most comfortable and confident that can deliver the dental results you are looking for. \n\nIn absolute terms, there is not a 'best cosmetic dentist' as it is a subjective assessment based on many factors, such as aesthetic results, treatment philosophy, efficiency, chairside manner, communication, visual and tactile accuracy to name a few. The British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry operate and maintain a list of a approved and qualified Cosmetic dentists on their Accredited panel. This is a small group of the best cosmetic dentists, as judged by the academy over an in depth analysis of five clinical cases, judged anonymously. There is an Accredited Fellowship which sits one level above Accreditation, involving five further complex cases, executed to the highest possible standard involving management of issues arising from gum disease, orthodontics, bite related complications, remedial treatment from dental tourism, failed teledentistry, hereditary conditions such as weak enamel or dentine and complex tooth replacement. \nThis is perhaps the only measure of the best cosmetic dentists in the country and we are confident in the abilities of all the dentists listed as Accredited and Accredited Fellows in the link below. \nhttps://bacd.com/accreditation/"

      "acceptedAnswer": {
        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "There are three options for missing teeth: \n\nDental Implants: This is our closest replacement for a tooth, involving a metallic fixture attached to the bone with a tooth screwed to it. They last up to 25 years. \n\nDental Bridges: This uses the support of a neighboring tooth to replace a tooth. They are faster and more affordable than an implant, but last for 10-15 years and rely on the strength of an adjacent natural tooth/teeth. \n\nDental Dentures: This is a removable tooth replacement that is the fastest and often least costly option. Dentures can replace many teeth in one treatment but can cause accelerated tooth loss by worsening of gum health, and are difficult to tolerate as they rely on significant adaptation to removable teeth."

        "@type": "Answer",
        "text": "Whilst it is physically possible to have teeth pulled out for dental implants, it is advisable to keep and save natural teeth where possible. Dental implants are excellent replacements for teeth, but they will never be as good as a natural tooth! \nDental implants are occasionally promoted as lasting forever and being permanent, however, it is important to note that they do have a finite lifespan and at the end of their life cycle, dental implants can be complex and costly to replace. It can involve advanced and comprehensive treatment that can require bone and gum grafting as well as several months of healing time. \n\nIf your teeth are severely affected by gum disease, tooth decay, accidents or trauma you may benefit from having your teeth removed in favour of dental implants. If you have a choice between a healthy or serviceable tooth and an implant, we would urge you to consider working with the natural tooth with a veneer or crown in order to maintain its aesthetics and function for the long-term."

These four elements are combined together over one appointment of approximately 90 minutes to reduce the gummy smile by a maximum of 2mm, as well improving the shape and colour of the smile. \n\nGummy Smile Makeover with Bone Contouring: For those with moderate-severe gummy smiles of who have had gum lifts before, bone contouring is a variation of a Gummy Smile Makeover that allows us to position the gum more accurately and predictably in the desired position. We are not limited by the 2mm maximum and this is suitable for those who would like a more significant gum lift. The appointment lasts up to 2 hours and includes the tooth contouring, stain blasting and home whitening elements to boost the overall smile."
