Cosmetic dentistry refers to dental treatments that are designed to enhance the smile and correct chipped, cracked, discolored, and unevenly spaced teeth. From porcelain veneers to tooth-colored fillings, patients can choose from a variety of dental solutions to restore the health and vitality of their smile.<\/p>\n
Aesthetic dental treatments can be performed to correct everything from minor flaws in the smile to severe tooth discoloration, missing teeth, and uneven spacing between teeth.<\/p>\n
The following is a list of common aesthetic dentistry options:<\/p>\n
Gum Contouring: Do you have a gummy smile or uneven gum line? Gum contouring treatments can reshape your gum line to produce a more beautiful smile.<\/p>\n
Porcelain Veneers: Ceramic shells applied to the front of the teeth to conceal cracks and chips, overlay gaps, and create a whiter appearance to a person’s smile.<\/p>\n
Teeth Whitening: There are two methods for whitening teeth: laser teeth whitening (performed in the cosmetic dentist’s office) and at-home teeth bleaching (involving the use of take-home bleaching kits).<\/p>\n
In addition to improving the appearance of the teeth, the following procedures restore and repair teeth that have been damaged as a result of tooth decay, gum disease, or injury.<\/p>\n
Dental Bridges: A sturdy structure composed of two crowns and a prosthetic tooth. Dental bridges are used to “bridge” the gaps where teeth are missing.<\/p>\n
Dental Crowns: A dental crown, or cap, is used to repair badly decayed or damaged teeth. The crown is created from a mold of the original tooth, and then applied after the decay is removed and the tooth is prepared. Dental Fillings: A composite resin material matched to the natural shade of your teeth. Tooth-colored “white” fillings are an attractive alternative to silver amalgam fillings. Dental Implants: Artificial roots that are embedded in the jaw and are each topped with a prosthetic tooth.<\/p>\n
Dental implants are a restorative and cosmetic dentistry solution for missing teeth.<\/p>\n
Inlays\/Onlays: Durable and attractive restorations used to repair cracked or otherwise damaged teeth. Inlays and onlays require less tooth reduction than fillings or crowns.<\/p>\n
Orthodontic Treatment Orthodontic treatments improve the symmetry and alignment of the teeth and jaw. Popular orthodontics treatments include<\/p>\n
Invisalign\u00ae: An orthodontic solution for unevenly spaced, overlapping, or gapped teeth. Invisalign\u00ae is a popular teeth-straightening solution for adults who want to avoid orthodontic braces.<\/p>\n
Braces: Braces can be used to correct severely overcrowded teeth and other orthodontic problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
