COSMETIC DENTAL TREATMENT

Cosmetic Dentistry
  • If your teeth are stained, discolored, worn,
    chipped, broken, misaligned, misshapen, or have
    gaps between them, modern cosmetic dentistry can
    give you a better smile. A smile makeover
    improves the appearance of your smile through one
    or more cosmetic dentistry procedures. Cosmetic
    dentists work with you to develop a treatment
    plan.

Teeth Whitening
  • Teeth whitening can be one of the simplest and
    least expensive ways to improve your smile. Teeth
    can be bleached with in-office products in your
    dentists office

5
Dental Veneers
  • Dental veneers are wafer-thin, custom-made shells
    of tooth-colored porcelain or resin that cover
    the front surface of the teeth. After removing
    about a half-millimeter of enamel from the tooth
    surface, these thin shells are bonded to the
    front of the teeth, changing their color, shape,
    size, or length.

6
Dental Bonding
  • In dental bonding, a tooth-colored, putty-like
    resin, which is a durable plastic material, is
    applied to the tooth and hardened with an
    ultraviolet or laser light, bonding the material
    to the tooth. Your dentist then trims, shapes,
    and polishes it. 

7
Dental Crown
  • A dental crown, also called a cap, fits over and
    replaces the entire decayed or damaged tooth
    above the gum line, restoring its shape, size,
    strength, and appearance. Crowns keep a weak
    tooth from breaking or hold a cracked tooth
    together they can be used cosmetically to cover
    misshapen or severely discolored teeth.

8
Inlays and On lays
  • Inlays and on lays, also called indirect
    fillings, are made from gold, porcelain, or
    composite materials and fill decayed or damaged
    teeth. The filling is called an inlay when the
    material is bonded within the center of a tooth
    it is called an on lay when the filling
    includes one or more points of the tooth or
    covers the biting surface. Inlays and on lays
    preserve as much healthy tooth as possible and
    are an alternative to crowns. 

9
Dental Implants
  • Dental implants are titanium replacement tooth
    roots inserted into the bone socket of the
    missing tooth. As the jawbone heals, it grows
    around the implanted metal post, anchoring it
    securely in the jaw and providing a foundation
    for a replacement tooth.
