Question 9

gel or liquid product is applied to the tooth surface, following the whitening process, to subdue any painful responses to the irritating lightening agents

Answer 9

Tooth desensitization

Question 10

after tooth surfaces are roughened with a gel etch, a matching shade of composite material is applied to prepared teeth, smoothed and polished

Answer 10

Tooth bonding

Question 11

tooth surfaces are covered with a porcelain material using one of two techniques:

Answer 11

Veneer or laminate application

Question 12

similar to tooth bonding, but roughened teeth are covered with a white porcelain, rather than a composite material

Answer 12

Direct application

Question 13

on a first visit, a small amount of enamel is removed from the teeth, and an impression is taken. The impression is used to make the new veneer cover, and during a second visit, this new covering is applied.

The amount of gingiva is either surgically reduced, or teeth are treated to give the gingivae a reduced appearance:

Answer 24

Gingival reduction

Question 25

surgically shaping the gingivae to remove unwanted surplus of gingival tissue

Answer 25

Gingival contouring

Question 26

exposing more tooth structure, providing the appearance of reduced gingivae

Crown lengthening

Question 27

surgically excising (cutting) tissue over the crown, to expose the tooth

Exposing un-erupted teeth

Question 28

Abnormal gingival tissue can be reconstructed or repaired with the addition of more tissue, to provide the appearance of more gingiva:

Answer 28

Gingival augmentation

Question 29

extracting oral or palatal (palat-al) tissue and ‘relocating’ it to the required gingival area
