Added Dimension Denture

Dr Nick Mohindra first became interested in this field when he was treating patients who were suffering from what is known as TMD syndrome. This is a group of symptoms including sore facial muscles, tense neck and shoulders, or back and head pains, often caused by jaw relationship problems. It occurred to him that the technique he was using to treat these patients could also benefit denture patients. This lead to the Added Dimension Denture™ technique, which is based on restoring the lower facial height lost by denture wearers.Dr Mohindra was encouraged to publish his findings in a scientific paper and this was published in the British Dental Journal in 1996. Since then he has treated hundreds of patients with the technique and recently made the decision to give up general dentistry - Dr Mohindra was previously principal of a four-man practice in Kent - in order to devote all his time to Added Dimension Dentistry. He plans to teach other Dentists the technique at his Added Dimension Dentistry Clinic in central London.

Added Dimension Dentistry was set up in central London in 1999 to add a new dimension to dentistry.Cosmetic dentistry as we know it is all about improving the smile—by tooth whitening, tooth straightening, crowns, veneers, cosmetic dentures. However, the smile is not just about lips and teeth. When you look at it as part of the bigger picture i.e. the face, we have to consider other aspects:

• The eyes- do they smile too?
• The corners of the mouth - how much do they lift up when we smile?
• How much tooth and how much gum show when we smile?
• How do our teeth look when we are talking?
• How does age affect our smile?

These are the extra dimensions we look at when we are designing your smile at Added Dimension Dentistry. Improving the smile is not just about restoring the teeth but improving the muscle tone and the slackness of the face. Our Dentalfacelift and Oralift procedures address these issues.
