Whether following celebrity trends or following your heart, you want to look your best—and there is nothing like a beautiful smile to help create a sense of confidence and readiness to face the world.
“Hollywood smiles” is a term used for what most people perceive to be a perfect smile, but Dr. Faraj Edher, prosthodontist at BC Perio Dental and Implant Centre, says “perfect” is subjective.
“We uniquely create each person’s smile based on their facial structure, desires and expectations,” Edher says. “This can be achieved using porcelain veneers with very minimal (or sometimes no) reduction of the teeth, professional bleaching, or cosmetic restorations.”
BC Perio Dental Health and Implant Centre has revolutionized the way dental care is delivered in the Lower Mainland. It brings multiple services and skillsets together under one roof, so patients receive the most up-to-date and efficient service and, if needed, the expertise of a team of doctors.
Cosmetic and surgical restorations include dental crowns to cover the tooth and restore its shape, size, and strength and improve its appearance. Bridges—removable or fixed and made from alloys or porcelain—replace missing teeth and change the way your mouth looks and functions. Veneers provide immediate improvement to the overall aesthetics of your smile, adding a thin porcelain shell that bonds directly to the front surface of a tooth to enhance its natural appearance.
Often referred to as Immediate Function Implants, Teeth in One Day allows you to receive an implant and a crown, or dental implants and a fully-functioning set of teeth in just one day, providing the ability to enjoy your new smile immediately after your dental implant has been placed.
In many cases, the restorative team uses a combination of different services to give clients the beautiful smiles they’re looking for. As a restorative specialist, Dr. Faraj is providing these services on a daily basis.
“It is remarkable to witness someone regain their confidence and smile proudly for the first time in years—or sometimes, ever,” he says. Restorative services also offer life-changing benefits, like restoring proper chewing function, talking ability and oral health.
BC Perio uses the most advanced digital technology available to recreate smiles in the most efficient and predictable way. “We use virtual smile design, augmented reality and artificial intelligence to give our clients the unique ability to see a prototype of the proposed smile and give us their input before we start,” Dr. Faraj says. “Having an in-house fully digital dental laboratory allows us to control the quality of everything involved in these procedures and complete these services much faster than we normally could.”
