Cosmetic dentistry is any dental procedures that improve the mouths aesthetics, whether it will be your teeth, gums and/or bite. It is a meticulous combination and understanding of science and art to create that perfect “Hollywood Smile.” Cosmetic dentistry can treat your broken, chipped, stained, un-evenly spaced, and worn down teeth to that perfectly aligned, white smile.
Metal Free Restorations
Composite resin, also known as tooth colored fillings used to restore missing tooth structure and deliver a very natural looking smile.
Cosmetic Bonding
Application of a thin coating of plastic, tooth colored, material on the front and possibly the back surfaces of teeth to restore any natural flaws. It covers any chipped or fractured teeth, as well as closes gaps, reshapes and changes the shade of your teeth to deliver a beautifully enhanced smile. Cosmetic bonding tends to stain and fracture with age. Hence, longevity is compromised due to the nature of material.
Inlay/Onlay
It is an indirect restoration made of strong porcelain that is placed in the cavity of the tooth via cement rather than composite resin to restore missing tooth structure, post cavity.
Porcelain veneers
Thin, custom made porcelainshells/jackets designed to cover the front surfaces of teeth to improve appearance. Provides a more permanent solution of restoring slightly abraded, eroded, chipped or discolored teeth.
Lumineers- Ultra thin porcelain veneers (as thin as the contact lense) that could be inserted without the use of shots, drilling or expensive temporaries. This brand of veneers is extremely durable, tending to last over 20 years. Individual results may vary depending on the severity of the case.
