If you’re not happy with the way your teeth look, you may benefit from cosmetic dentistry. People from all walks of life are investing in an attractive smile because there are more treatment options than ever before. Whether you’re embarrassed by stains, chips, or gaps, your cosmetic dentist can give you the flawless results you desire. Here’s what you need to know to determine if cosmetic dentistry is right for you.
Common Cosmetic Dental Procedures
Most patients with good oral and overall health are candidates for cosmetic dentistry. You must have healthy teeth and gums to benefit from any elective services. Some cosmetic treatments can also treat various dental issues, like decay, chips, or cracks. Your cosmetic dentist will design a treatment plan to ensure your mouth is healthy while enhancing your smile. Depending on your situation, you may be a candidate for 1 or more cosmetic procedures, which may include:
Porcelain Veneers
A veneer is a thin porcelain restoration that’s applied to the front surface of a tooth to improve its color, size, and shape. Bonding veneers to the teeth that show when smiling can fix many imperfections at once, like stains, chips, and gaps. The minimally invasive procedure provides quick results that can last for a decade or more.
Metal-Free Restorations
Ceramic materials are used to create dental crowns that offer both cosmetic and restorative benefits. They can protect a weekend tooth while looking natural, so only a trained dental professional will know it is there.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding can fix minor issues quickly, like tooth decay, cracks, stains, and exposed roots. A composite resin is shaded to the color of enamel to look like part of the tooth for natural-looking results.
Teeth Whitening
Surface stains can be improved by up to 8 shades using a professional whitening system. Your teeth can stay bright for many months or years, depending on your aftercare routine.
Benefits of an Attractive Smile
You can’t put a price on the benefits of a stunning smile. Cosmetic dentistry can boost your self-esteem, so you’ll always look and feel your best. With a pleasing smile associated with confidence, success, and youth, you can improve your professional image, which just might take your career to the next level.
It’s never too late to invest in a picture-perfect smile. Your cosmetic dentist can transform your teeth using the latest solutions in elective dentistry.
