We hope you are all well .
The Chief Dental Officer has now announced that dental practices across England will be allowed to begin the process of reopening for all emergency and routine face to face dental care from Monday 8th June.
Throughout the pandemic, we have been clear that our first priority is the wellbeing of our patients and colleagues and this continues to be the case. As a result, Dental Elegance will be reopening on a limited capacity first to deal with emergencies.
It is likely that some treatments will be available before others as there are different PPE requirements for different treatments. We are working through the detail of this as quickly as possible and will be communicating directly with you soon with more information about when we will be open. In the meantime if you need advice, or if you are in need of urgent dental treatment, you should continue to contact the practice for help and advice .
We are determined to support patients who need care as quickly as possible and will be opening Dental Elegance to provide further treatments as soon as we are safely able to do so. We will keep you fully informed throughout this process.
Kind Regards
Dental Elegance team
An inlay is a small setting within the biting surface of the tooth. An onlay is a facing which restores and replaces the whole biting surface of the tooth. Inlays & onlays can be made of either ceramic (including porcelain) or gold.
Ceramics offer the advantage that they can be perfectly shade matched to the remaining tooth and also that it can be chemically bonded to the tooth, making it very strong. Gold offers the advantage that it can be made very thin and still keep its strength, and so can be useful in back teeth where there is very little space to restore the tooth.
Onlays offer the advantage of requiring less tooth cutting than for crowns, therefore preserve as much natural tooth surface as possible whilst being virtually as strong as crowns.
