How Cosmetic Dentistry Can Boost Your Self-Confidence
Veneers are thin porcelain shells that wrap around the forward-facing tooth surfaces, covering several aesthetic problems simultaneously. They can correct discolored, chipped, gapped, and misshapen teeth. They are long-lasting and stain-resistant with a beautiful shine similar to healthy tooth enamel.
Dental Implants
Implants have dual restorative and cosmetic purposes. While implants significantly improve oral health by closing gaps between teeth and preserving jawbone strength, they also provide aesthetically pleasing tooth replacements to complete your smile.
Invisalign
Invisalign® corrects mild to moderate tooth alignment and bite issues. Invisalign can improve your appearance and oral health by being discreet, comfortable, and faster than braces.
Cosmetic Bonding
Dentists use tooth-colored resin to shape, repair, and contour natural teeth. It can also correct discolored teeth. Bonding is both an art and a science. It strengthens teeth and dramatically improves their appearance.
Dental Crowns
Like implants, dental crowns have aesthetic and functional benefits. Broken, discolored, and decayed teeth can receive crowns to improve their appearance. Crowns also protect the tooth's natural root system.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is one of the best ways to rejuvenate your smile. To accommodate your needs, you can choose in-office or take-home whitening.
Frequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic Dentistry
Can front teeth be bonded?
Dentists frequently use cosmetic bonding on front teeth. Bonding the front teeth can improve your smile by rebuilding the most visible teeth.
How long do veneers last on your teeth?
Porcelain veneers tend to last about seven to 15 years, though they can last even longer with excellent care. Avoid eating hard foods like nuts and candy to keep your veneers looking their best. Do not chew non-food objects like ice or fingernails. If you take precautions, your veneers will provide long-lasting smile improvement.
