Cosmetic Dentistry
Your health is your dentist’s number one priority; however, your dental team also wants you to feel confident that your smile looks its best.
If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your teeth, you should know that modern cosmetic dentistry offers a solution for almost any flaw. Discuss your cosmetic goals with your dentist so that we can design a comprehensive treatment plan just for you!
Teeth Whitening
Whitening your teeth is one of the simplest and most cost effective improvements you can make. Drugstore whitening kits may be easy to find and cheap, but nothing beats a professional whitening service.
Veneers
When you see a movie star with perfect teeth, there’s a good chance that veneers were used to craft that smile!
A veneer is a thin piece of porcelain or composite resin that is bonded to the front of your tooth. Veneers can be used to correct cosmetic problems by improving the color, shape, length, or size of a tooth. You can get one veneer or multiple, depending on your cosmetic goals.
Cosmetic Fillings
If you need a filling, there are two main materials that can be used to do the job – amalgam or composite resin. Both are safe to use and effective.
The difference is the cosmetic result.
Amalgam is a traditional metal filling that looks like a very visible silver or gray spot against the white of your tooth. Composite resin fillings, in comparison, can be created to exactly match the shade of your natural tooth.
Composite resin can also be used in a process called bonding. Your dentist will apply the material in a putty-like state to the surface of your tooth to give it the perfect shape. The material hardens, and then your dentist trims and polishes it further to achieve a flawless appearance.
