Cosmetic bonding is a treatment that can be used to change the appearance of your teeth. This cosmetic method involves material that is placed on the surface of the teeth; then the material is sculpted to create the desired size and shape of the tooth. Once the ideal shape has been formed, then the material is hardened and bonded to make it look natural.
If you are looking for a conservative way to overcome blemishes on your teeth, then you might consider the benefits of tooth bonding. This treatment is often used for dental problems such as misalignment, gaps or spaces, poor shape, discoloration or stains, cracks, and chips.
The goal with dental bonding is to create a natural appearance, creating a cover-up for smaller dental problems. Typically, the cosmetic bonding treatment can be completed in one appointment. It is a fast and cost-effective way to improve the appearance of your smile.
One of the fastest ways to transform the appearance of your smile is with dental veneers. This treatment can help you overcome dental problems and create the smile that you have always dreamed about! When you choose porcelain veneers as a cosmetic dental treatment, you can talk with the dentist to choose the length, shape, size, and color of your teeth. Teeth veneers can be used to overcome minor imperfections such as cracks, gaps, chips, and more.
Dental veneers are designed for aesthetic purposes, so they fall within the category of cosmetic dentistry. During your first appointment, the dentist will prepare your teeth and then a mold is created to shape the veneers. Then, you will need to come back to the office for a second visit, and we will bond the porcelain veneers to your teeth. The final result is a natural, beautiful smile because the dental veneers will be visible when you smile and open your mouth.
An uneven gum line or a gummy smile can have a negative impact on the overall appearance of a person’s smile. When you smile, you want to show people your beautiful teeth instead of a smile with unattractive gums. We can use a laser treatment to contour the gums in the right way to match your teeth.
The benefit of using a laser for gummy smile contouring is that the laser is more comfortable, and it is less invasive compared with methods that were used in the past. The laser is used to shape the gums into a symmetrical line and eliminate overgrown gum areas. When a laser is used for gum contouring, you can enjoy the benefits of a comfortable experience and fast healing after the appointment.
Examples of common gum treatments that are completed with a laser include both periodontal gum therapy and a frenectomy. These treatments are determined on a case-by-case basis for each patient.
Did you know that you can straighten your teeth without the need to wear metal braces? Invisalign uses clear aligners that are custom fitted to your mouth, and these appliances gently move your teeth into a straight line. Many people find that Invisalign is more comfortable compared to traditional clear braces. Additionally, Invisalign isn’t as noticeable when you are talking with other people.
Since the invisible aligners can be removed, you will have more comfort while eating, flossing, and brushing your teeth. If this treatment plan is right for you, then you will receive a series of trays that will progressively move your teeth into a straight smile.
The treatment time depends on the original position of your teeth and the number of aligners that you will need to wear. It is essential that you follow the instructions from your Invisalign dentist to ensure that your teeth move in the right way.
If you are ready to improve your appearance with a brighter smile, then teeth whitening might be the right fit for you. Over the years, it is common for the teeth to become stained and yellow. Certain lifestyle habits can cause the color of the teeth to change, and the only way to restore the bright color is with a teeth whitening treatment.
When you are ready to brighten up your dingy, stained teeth, then don’t make the mistake of using over-the-counter teeth whitening products. Professional teeth whitening services are faster, safer, and more effective than the DIY methods that are done at home. In office bleaching will immediately improve the appearance of your teeth, allowing you to leave our office with a brighter smile that can be shared with everyone that you see. Dental bleaching treatments can be used to help you achieve the shade of white that you have always wanted.
