What is Cosmetic Dentistry all about

Did you notice that your teeth are yellowing and getting stained? Or you have crooked or chipped teeth? Or even worse,  a front tooth is missing?

You no longer have to avoid smiling or lock yourself up in your room. Cosmetic dentistry is here  to your rescue and bring back the sparkle in your beautiful smile.

There are numerous options to set things right when it comes to your teeth such as veneers, teeth whitening, tooth colored fillings, dental implants, etc. Modern dentistry  allows  dentists around the United States, including our practice at Newington, to provide simple, quick and affordable solutions to   these problems.  We explore a few of these procedures in this blog:

Veneers and dental bonding:

A perfect option for repairing minor chipping, fractures or pits especially on front teeth. First, the dental hygienist will clean the teeth to  rid them of food debris and plaque. Once the tooth surface is cleared of any offending particles, your dentist will roughen the surface of the tooth with a special etching gel. This is done to improve bonding of the restorative material to the tooth. The restorative material will be chosen  so that it will match the colour of your tooth and will be applied to the chipped or damaged area.

Veneers are thin tooth colored shells which are placed over the tooth. The procedure is the same as above, the only difference being, instead of a putty material a veneer will be placed. Veneers can also be used to correct crooked and rotated teeth if the mal-positioning is not of a severe degree.

Orthodontics

Clear Braces are recommended for moderate to severe cases of teeth misalignment and mal-positioning. Recently, a new system of teeth aligners called Invisalign has  completely revolutionised the way teeth mal-occupations are corrected. Invisalign aligners are transparent, flexible, soft devices that straighten your teeth in a short  time. They gently and gradually shift your teeth to the desired position. Read our blog here to know more about the advantages of Invisalign.

Professional teeth whitening

The simplest and quickest method of getting sparkling white teeth at the dentist’s office. As long as your teeth are natural and not crowns or bridges, teeth whitening can do wonders to your smile. Using advanced whitening technology and bio-friendly whitening agents, your dentist will be able to get rid of most of the superficial teeth stains. For deeper stains special methods of whitening can be employed. To get detailed info on teeth whitening read our blog here.
