Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures To Conceal Dental Deformities

Cosmetic dentistry refers to dental procedures that are designed to improve the appearance of your teeth. Your teeth can have a major impact on your overall appearance. When your smile is bright, white, and straight, you are much more likely to feel self-confident and self-assured. There are many cosmetic dentistry treatments that can help to improve your smile, from Invisalign braces to teeth whitening.

What is cosmetic dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry is any dental work that improves the appearance of your smile. Cosmetic dentistry is mainly used to correct imperfections in teeth, such as staining or chipping.

What are the benefits of cosmetic dentistry?

There are many benefits to cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dentistry includes a variety of procedures. Some of the benefits of cosmetic dentistry include:

• Improved appearance
• Improved self-confidence
• Better oral health
• Cosmetic dental procedures to improve one's smile

Dental crowns

If you have a weak or damaged tooth, dental crowns are one of the best ways to strengthen the tooth and restore its appearance. 

Dental bridges

A dental bridge is an excellent way to replace your missing teeth and restore your beautiful smile. The bridge is anchored by dental implants or crowns on either side of the gap. 

Dental veneers

Dental veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are placed over the front of your teeth to correct gaps, discoloration, and misalignment. These shells are bonded to the front of the teeth, which helps conceal their imperfections.

Invisalign braces

Invisalign braces are one of the most popular orthodontic treatment options to align misaligned or crooked teeth discreetly. They straighten the teeth comfortably and faster. 

Dental implants

Dental implants provide a permanent solution to a missing tooth, bone loss, and many other dental conditions. They can help prevent the shifting of your other teeth, and they can help increase your confidence by improving the aesthetics of your smile.

Dental implants are tiny titanium posts that are surgically implanted into the jaw bone. The titanium integrates with your natural bone, becoming a permanent part of your smile! They are then restored with a dental crown, bridge, or denture. Dental implants are used to replace a single missing tooth, several missing teeth, or an entire arch (top or bottom row of teeth).

Dental bonding

If you have small dental imperfections, such as chips or cracks, dental bonding might be the ideal solution. A dental bond is a tooth-colored resin that can be shaped and smoothed over small areas of your teeth.

Tooth reshaping and contouring

Tooth reshaping and contouring are dental procedures used to correct misshapen, chipped, cracked, or crooked teeth. Your dentist can use these procedures to correct minor dental imperfections.

Tooth whitening

If your teeth are a shade or two lighter than your surrounding teeth, you may benefit from professional teeth whitening to remove stains. There are several over-the-counter whitening gels and strips available, but they only remove surface stains and won't provide the dramatic results that professional teeth whitening can.
