What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
The name “cosmetics” often doesn’t paint the clearest picture of cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dentistry is considered for improving esthetics, but it has incredible benefits that can restore and rejuvenate your smile, teeth, and jaws.
Here are some ways our team can help you today:
Veneers
Dental veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells that are custom-made to cover the front surface of your teeth. You may have heard they are an excellent solution for correcting issues like stains, chips, cracks, or misalignments.
Veneers are popular as they involve minimal tooth reduction, which gives you a nice polished look and a natural and flawless appearance that Hollywood would be jealous of.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are custom-made to fit over the front surface of teeth, providing a natural-looking and durable solution to improve the appearance of teeth. They are a popular cosmetic dental treatment used to address various issues such as discoloration, chips, cracks, gaps, or misalignment.
Composite Veneers
Composite veneers, also known as direct composite veneers, are a type of cosmetic dental treatment used to enhance the appearance of teeth. Unlike porcelain veneers, which are fabricated in a dental laboratory and then bonded to the teeth, composite veneers are directly applied to the teeth by the dentist using tooth-colored composite resin material.
In Office Whitening
ZOOM! whitening is done in-office and is a highly effective whitening procedure that provides quick and accurate results that you can’t get out of an over-the-counter solution. The entire ZOOM! process is done by applying a specially formulated whitening gel, which is then activated by a low-heat light.
The combination of light, heat, and gel provides a fast turnaround time to getting whiter and nicer teeth.
Bonding
You will need dental bonding to address discolorations, gaps, chips, and cracks. Although it doesn’t provide full coverage like a veneer, it targets the heart of the problem by delivering an impactful and cost-effective alternative. We bond and sculpt the material to tailor it to your needs and bond it to the surface of your affected teeth.
Once we’ve completed the bonding process, we will polish it to a natural finish to blend in with your surrounding healthy teeth.
Inlays and Onlays
Imagine your tooth has little peaks and valleys – called the cusps. Inlays are like puzzle pieces that fit right into those valleys, fixing the damage. Onlays are more comprehensive puzzle pieces that fit into the valleys and cover the peaks.
For moderately damaged or decayed teeth, we custom-make inlays and onlays to provide complete support and fit them to the affected tooth or teeth.
