The Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry

One of the most common reasons people seek cosmetic dentistry is to improve the appearance of their smile. From minor flaws like stained teeth to more severe issues like crooked or missing teeth, there are many reasons why people want their teeth to look their best.

Another reason you might choose cosmetic dentistry is to close gaps in your smile. Whether you’ve lost a tooth because of trauma or decay, options are available to replace your missing tooth that will restore your smile’s appearance and ability to chew and speak properly.

If your teeth don’t fit together correctly, you can also benefit from using cosmetic dentistry to correct this issue. Misaligned teeth can cause problems with oral health; for example, this can lead to uneven wear on your teeth, an increased risk of cavities and gum disease, and even headaches. Using cosmetic dentistry can fix bite problems and get the straighter, healthier smile you deserve.

Cosmetic Dentistry Options

Veneers 

Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are made to fit over your teeth. They can change the color and shape of your teeth and correct minor damage or misalignment issues. They can also close gaps between teeth or change the shape of your smile.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are tooth-shaped restorations that fit over your natural tooth structure to restore its shape and size and strengthen it against further damage. They can be used to rebuild broken or worn-down teeth, cover misshapen teeth, conceal implants, replace metal fillings, and secure bridges.

Bonding

Composite resin bonding is a dental treatment that uses a particular type of tooth-colored plastic material to correct cracks, chips, discoloration, and other minor imperfections in your teeth. The compound is precisely molded and polished to fit your teeth and can be used to repair anything from minor damage to the surface of your tooth to an entire smile makeover.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is a safe, effective way to brighten the color of your teeth by several shades. We offer both in-office and take-home treatments depending on your needs and preference. Both can lighten stains caused by coffee, tea, soda, chocolate, and more.
