Cosmetic Dentistry
A smile can be the most
eye-catching feature of a face. With dentistry's many advances, you no longer
have to settle for stained, chipped, or misshapen teeth. You now have choices
that can help you smile with confidence.
Even the most subtle change in your smile can
make a dramatic difference in the way you look and feel about yourself. Talk to
your dentist about the options most suitable for you, what your expectations are
and the dental fees involved. Some options are:
- Tooth whitening (
bleaching) brightens teeth that are discolored or stained. Bleaching may be
done completely in the dental office or the dentist may dispense a system
for you to use at home.
- Bonding can improve the
appearance of teeth that are chipped, broken, cracked, stained, or have
spaces between them. With bonding, tooth-colored materials are applied, or
bonded, to the tooth surface.
- Enamel shaping involves
modifying teeth to improve their appearance by removing or contouring
enamel. The process, which often is combined with bonding, usually is quick
and comfortable and the results can be seen immediately.
- Porcelain Veneers are thin
custom-made shells designed to cover the front side of teeth. Made of
tooth-colored materials, porcelain veneers are used to treat spaces between teeth and
teeth that are chipped or worn, permanently stained, poorly shaped or
slightly crooked.
