Cosmetic Dentistry for the Appearance of Your Overall Smile

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on treatments that improve the appearance of your smile. Some of these treatments also restore the function of damaged teeth as an extra benefit. For example, crowns can be used to restore the aesthetics of a severely damaged tooth, but they also protect them from further damage and bite forces.

The appearance of your teeth is one of the most noticeable parts of your appearance. People often make assumptions about you based on the condition of your teeth. An attractive smile is often perceived as a sign of success, cleanliness, and youth, while unsightly teeth are associated with negative characteristics like a lack of hygiene.

People unhappy about how their teeth look are often reluctant to display them when they smile or interact with others. It makes them more self-conscious, and it can lead to low self-esteem.

Improving your smile with cosmetic dentistry

Thanks to innovations in cosmetic dentistry, dentists can now help patients to create the smile of their dreams. There is no such thing as a smile that is too damaged to be transformed. There are cosmetic treatments for every issue.

Dentists often combine multiple cosmetic treatments for patients with severely damaged teeth. The procedure is called a smile makeover. Some of the cosmetic treatments that can be used to transform the way a person’s smile looks include:

• Composite bonding: This versatile treatment can be used to fix a wide range of dental issues. It involves applying a composite resin directly to a tooth and molding it as needed. The composite is made from mixtures of plastics and glass. It is matched with the color of the rest of the patient’s teeth, so any repairs made blend in. Issues that can be fixed with composite bonding include chipped, broken, deformed, decayed, and discolored teeth. It is a non-invasive procedure that does not require making any permanent alterations to the patient’s teeth
• Teeth whitening: In-office teeth whitening treatments are the most effective way to improve the color of teeth drastically. It helps to get rid of the most common types of stains like those caused by smoking, aging, or the tannins in food. Teeth whitening treatment involves applying bleaching agents like hydrogen peroxide to the patient’s teeth. It gets rid of stains deep within teeth and on their exterior. A single session can improve the color of teeth by up to eight shades
• Veneers: These are tooth-shaped covers for the front part of teeth. They cover up any flaws on a tooth, improving its appearance. Veneers started as a way to improve the smiles of movie stars while filming, but anyone can get them nowadays. No other restoration compared to veneers when it comes to how drastically these restorations can transform a person’s smile
