the a.b.c. concept
-
Alignment of teeth is achieved with orthodontics, where individual teeth are moved towards their ideal position with either fixed braces or removable aligners. We are then able to achieve the best smile we can, conserving as opposed to compromising healthy enamel in following steps, brighten and contour.
-
Clear Fixed Braces
Traditional braces have been combined with modern material science to create porcelain braces. This option offers both aesthetics and classic mechanics, making it unparalleled in terms of efficiency.
Each tooth is fitted with a uniquely designed porcelain bracket that perfectly matches its anatomy and is precisely bonded to the tooth's surface with the desired position in mind.
Clear Removable Aligners
Clear aligners are one of the most discrete ways to straighten your teeth, utilising 3D modelling to create aligners that gradually move your teeth to their desired final position.
A series of custom-made clear aligners are designed for your teeth, each worn for 7-14 days before being replaced by the next in the series. This gradual progression allows for a step-by-step movement towards the projected final position.
-
Teeth whitening is an effective and minimally invasive way to enhance your smile. With precise assessments, photography, and prescription-strength whitening agents in custom-made trays, we deliver consistent and proven results for natural teeth.
The treatment is a gentle, gradual process performed at home using our prescription serums and custom whitening trays or retainers.
Whitening works by removing stains and discolouration, always ensuring a naturally brighter appearance as it does not add artificial white to the teeth.
-
Carbamide Peroxide, the active ingredient in our prescription whitening serums, releases oxygen molecules that penetrate the teeth and break down stain particles into smaller, colourless compounds to deliver a brighter, whiter smile without affecting or damaging the mineral content of the teeth.
-
The contouring phase of our a.b.c. concept is where we truly elevate your smile. Through our eye for natural aesthetics and artisanal clinical touch, we sculpt the silhouette and surface reflections of teeth with subtle and delicate use of composite resin or porcelain to achieve the youthful finish.
-
Composite Resin
Contemporary composite resins have advanced beyond cavity restoration to reshape and refine anterior teeth without removing natural enamel. Composed of 75–80% glass and ceramic particles, the resin matrix acts as a scaffold, bonding these materials for strength, durability, and aesthetics..
Porcelain
Porcelain, in most of our cases Lithium Disilicate (e.max), remains the material most closely resembling natural enamel in both appearance and strength. Ideal for suitable cases or replacing older dentistry, it offers unmatched versatility, creative freedom, and long-lasting results. Crafted layer by layer with our ceramist, it delivers truly bespoke aesthetics.
Gums
The gums can often be overlooked as part of a smile but in most instances, it plays an important role. Using precision lasers, gum contouring is a quick and painless treatment to reduce gummy smiles, reveal more enamel and improve symmetry.

Our 3-step concept to align, brighten and contour teeth allows us to achieve highly aesthetic and natural results with your dental health at the forefront.
-
The foundation of healthy oral health goes beyond aesthetics — robust back teeth are key to efficient function, nutrition, and confidence.
When large fillings are failing, teeth are heavily worn or crowns are no longer reliable, we combine contemporary techniques with a deep understanding of bite mechanics to restore strength and balance.
Through phased and carefully planned treatment sequencing, we provide clarity and reassurance for lasting results no matter the complexity.
-
Optimal gum health is fundamental to both the aesthetics and long-term stability of teeth, as well as the success of fillings, crowns, and other restorations. Healthy gums provide essential support, enhance symmetry, and frame the smile beautifully.
Emerging research also highlights connections between gum disease and systemic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s, emphasizing its impact beyond oral health.
Prioritising gum health safeguards dental function and appearance while promoting overall wellbeing—making it a cornerstone of modern care.
-
Replacing missing teeth maintains dental function, lower face aesthetics, and long-term oral health. Gaps can lead to shifting teeth, bite issues, and bone loss over time that makes future options more complex.
Both dental implants and bridges are accessible and straightforward solutions for replacing missing teeth. The choice depends on your oral health, the desired outcome, and personal preferences. With our expertise, we carefully assess your needs to guide you towards the most suitable option for lasting function and aesthetics.
-
If you’re a dentist looking to collaborate on a case requiring our cosmetic and restorative results, we’re here to help. We regularly partner with General Practitioners and Specialists, including Orthodontists and Periodontists, to deliver outstanding results.
Our process includes clear communication, comprehensive documentation, and post-treatment scans and photos to support your records and ensure your continuity of care. Get in touch at enquire@abc.dental.
