Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry utilizes various procedures and techniques to enhance the aesthetic of an individual’s teeth, gums, and smile.
The services provided by cosmetic dentistry include:
- Teeth whitening, which lightens teeth and removes stains using bleaching agents.
- Porcelain veneers, custom-made shells that cover the front of teeth to correct cosmetic issues like chips, cracks, gaps, and discoloration.
- Dental bonding, which applies tooth-colored resin to the surface of teeth to fix minor cosmetic problems like small chips or gaps.
- Invisalign, an orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth using clear, removable aligners instead of traditional metal braces.
- Dental implants, artificial tooth roots that replace one or more missing teeth and improve appearance and function by surgically placing them into the jawbone.
- Gum reshaping, which removes or reshapes gum tissue to correct a gummy smile or create a more even gum line.
- Full mouth reconstruction, a comprehensive dental treatment that addresses multiple cosmetic and functional issues in the mouth using a combination of restorative and cosmetic procedures.
Through improving the appearance and function of the mouth, cosmetic dentistry can enhance an individual’s self-confidence and overall well-being.
