What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry is the practice of providing elective cosmetic improvements to a patient’s smile and mouth. Cosmetic dentistry is available to most, however, cosmetic dentistry is not necessary to every patient’s physical health. Electing to use this type of dentistry may be very beneficial to a patient’s mental health and wellbeing. Standard procedures available include but are not limited to teeth whitening, veneers, dental bonding, fillings, and implants. Let's take a look at some of the more popular choices!

Invisalign

Used as an alternative to a more traditional orthodontic approach, Invisalign is an easy-to-use clear plastic retainer. With Invisalign, you can improve your bite and the alignment of your teeth. Being presented with the traditional orthodontic approach - like braces or a metal retainer - may not be attractive to everyone. Invisalign is an excellent option for most adults and will allow you to comfortably and conspicuously realign your teeth and bite

Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is very popular due to being the most economical but effective method to treat cracks or chips on your teeth when compared to other methods. Dental bonding works by applying a malleable white putty to the affected area, which is carefully fitted onto the tooth, which will then bond to the enamel. The putty will match the color and contour of your tooth, leaving it indistinguishable from the rest of your teeth.

Smile Makeover

If you are worried about multiple areas within your smile, a smile makeover may be the best option. A smile makeover is the most comprehensive approach to cosmetic dentistry. It incorporates several different procedures in cosmetic dentistry that are tailored to your specific dental needs. You will be able to schedule all of your procedures at once, so you can see the complete plan for your smile makeover.
