Improve Your Smile With Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry treatments are primarily elective treatments that aren’t necessary to maintain the health of your teeth. Many people choose cosmetic dentistry treatments because they want a more attractive smile. A cosmetic dentist usually focuses on improving the look of the teeth with certain dental procedures.

Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental treatment. It is a simple procedure that can brighten your smile in several shades. Your dentist can whiten your teeth using a whitening solution or by applying a whitening agent directly onto the surface of your teeth.

Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is a procedure that involves applying a tooth-colored resin material to the teeth. It is often recommended as a restorative procedure for teeth that are chipped, stained, cracked, or have minor gaps. The procedure can be completed in a single office visit.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin, tooth-shaped shells that are attached to the front of the teeth. They are designed to mask imperfections such as stains, chips, cracks, and misalignments. They can correct a number of dental problems that detract from the appearance of a smile.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are tiny metal posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone. Titanium is used because it is biocompatible to the body. The posts will fuse to the jawbone, creating a permanent anchor for the replacement teeth. The replacement teeth, or dental crowns, look and function just like natural teeth. They are a permanent solution for problems such as missing teeth and issues with dentures.

Gum Lift

A gum lift, also known as a gingivectomy, is an oral surgery procedure that reshapes the gum line to correct for excessive gum tissue. Often, gingivectomy is used to treat cases of “gummy smile” that show too much of the gums.

Crown Lengthening

Crown lengthening is a cosmetic dental procedure that is performed to fix a diastema, or gap, between teeth. This gap occurs when a tooth is congenitally missing or removed.

Crown lengthening is a minor surgical procedure that consists of removing a portion of the gum and bone tissue to expose more of the tooth.
