Cosmetic Dentistry
Everyone deserves to have a beautiful, healthy smile that makes them feel great about how they look and helps boost their self-confidence.
If your smile isn’t quite living up to your expectations, you do have options that can enhance your appearance and restore the health and vitality of your smile. Several dental treatments can be used alone or combined to transform your smile.
Improve Your Appearance and Oral Health
An attractive smile helps you feel good about yourself, but did you know correcting certain flaws can enhance your oral health?
It’s a widely accepted fact that there is a direct relationship between your mouth's health and overall health and well-being. Seeking treatment for these problems improves your appearance and protects your long-term oral and general health.
Missing Teeth and Dental Implants
Missing teeth certainly have a negative impact on your appearance, but they can also create serious oral health problems. A dental implant is an effective solution that is actually a complete tooth replacement, not just a cosmetic cover-up. The result is a fully functional, natural-looking tooth.
More importantly, the implant acts as a replacement for the root of the missing tooth. This prevents deterioration of the jaw bone and shifting of surrounding teeth, which can lead to overcrowding of teeth and alignment issues.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are a great choice for correcting various cosmetic flaws like chipped, broken, or cracked teeth. Veneers conceal the appearance of slightly misaligned and irregularly shaped teeth, making them effective for correcting minor dental bite problems.
Veneers are made of thin wafers of porcelain bonded to the surface of your tooth. Porcelain is a naturally translucent material that closely resembles the appearance of your natural teeth. Better yet, they can usually be placed in only two appointments.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are an essential part of restorative dentistry. They serve the important function of protecting and strengthening a tooth that has been compromised due to damage or decay. Since today’s dental crowns are made of porcelain, they reinforce weakened teeth and enhance the appearance of your natural smile.
There are many options that can help restore your smile to its full beauty and function, but only your dentist can help you decide which will be most effective for you.
