What Is Cosmetic Dentistry

1. What Is Cosmetic Dentistry

2. Having a beautiful smile is important to many people. As it not only gives them more confidence in their appearance but also more confidence in their everyday lives. • The booming cosmetic dentistry industry has been creating more and more interest as to what kind of treatment they can get nowadays to improve the look of their teeth.

3. Cosmetic dentistry covers all kinds of dental treatments that are not primarily to do with improving the function of the mouth. Treatments often focus on ameliorating the look of the teeth and some are more time-consuming and costly than others. • One of the most popular types of treatments - and one of the most affordable - is that whitening. This kind of treatment is used to whiten the teeth and involves applying a chemical product to achieve a bright, white look. One reason it's so popular is that many people think it gives them a better smile.

4. Although there are many teeth whitening products on the market, this type of affordable cosmetic dentistry can be exceptionally effective and also has the added benefit of being carried out by a trained dental professional to ensure safety and best results. • For those who invest in this kind of treatment purely to perfect the look of already great teeth, it is also a viable option for those whose teeth have been stained significantly by certain foods, drinks, and tobacco products as well as those who have teeth that discolor easily for hereditary reasons.

5. Another common and affordable cosmetic dentistry option is veneers, which are fine thin bits of plastic or porcelain that are placed on the front of teeth to change their appearance. These often used to treat chipped or unevenly surfaced teeth or those that need a correction in regards to shape or color of the tooth. • To have this kind of treatment, you visit your dentist, who will take an impression of your tooth and custom make a veneer for it. The veneer is cemented to the tooth and then the dentist will buff it in order to bring it back to an appropriate thickness.

6. Crowns are an alternative to veneers and are a less expensive form of cosmetic dentistry treatment. Crowns are actually caps that cover the tooth, altering its shape, color, and appearance. Although they are more expensive than some other options, these generally last a very long time, so may be a worthwhile investment for a long-term solution. • As an alternative to using veneers or crowns to alter the appearance of a tooth, your cosmetic dentist will be able to reshape or contour your teeth. This kind of treatment is often done to make small changes, but the major advantage is that it's permanent.

7. This type of treatment is ideal for those who have chipped teeth or whose teeth are too long and possibly disturbing the healthy function of their mouth. Any dentist that offers this kind of treatment will carry out thorough scans in order to determine whether this option is the right one for you. • There are many different types of cosmetic dentistry treatments available, including those that correct the appearance of different aspects of the teeth, such as the color, shape, form, size and irregularity of teeth. These all aim to lead to a more beautiful smile as well as improved function of the mouth in some cases.
