How an Experienced Cosmetic Dentist Can Improve Your Smile

An experienced cosmetic dentist might be exactly what you need if you are unhappy with the appearance of your smile. Cosmetic dentistry is a combination of artistic abilities and modern dental technology. Many cosmetic dentists perfect their skills over their years of addressing cosmetic dental problems.

How an experienced cosmetic dentist improves smiles

Cosmetic dentists have a variety of tools at their disposal when it comes to fixing smiles. Some of the treatments which are used often include:

Teeth whitening

Teeth whitening treatments are one of the more popular ways to improve the color of a person's teeth. Professional teeth whitening treatments performed by a dentist are significantly more effective than products sold over-the-counter. Dentists have access to prescription-grade bleaching agents that can improve the color of teeth by up to 8 shades after a single treatment. Teeth whitening is an effective way to eliminate discoloration and stains caused by foods, drinks, smoking and aging.

Dental bonding

This involves using a composite resin to rebuild stained or damaged teeth. The resin used is color-matched with the rest of the patient's teeth so the repaired tooth blends in with the natural teeth. It is a non-invasive procedure that is often done without the use of any anesthetic. Dental bonding is used to address problems like gaps between teeth, cavities, discoloration, damaged teeth and deformed teeth.

Veneers

Veneers are another common staple of cosmetic dentistry. They are thin shells that are used to hide imperfections on the front side of a tooth. Each veneer is glued to a tooth using dental cement. These dental cosmetics make it possible for anyone to design and create the smile of their dreams.

Dental implants

Implants are the preferred way to replace missing teeth. An implant serves as an artificial root that replaces the natural root that was lost when a tooth falls out. This helps to prevent the bone tissue loss that occurs when a tooth and its root are missing.

A crown is attached to the external-facing end of the implant to replace the lost tooth. Implants look and feel natural once installed, and they do not require specialized maintenance.

Dentures

Dentures are the most affordable way to replace lost teeth. They consist of two parts: a framework that rests on the wearer's gums, and artificial teeth. Dentures are popular with people who have lost most of their real teeth. Partial dentures can be worn by those who have only lost a few of their teeth.
