Cosmetic Dentistry
What is cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry primarily focuses on improving the aesthetic appearance and enhancement of one’s smile. Not only is it important to us to help with the look of your smile but we also care about the functionality and health of your teeth. Speaking and chewing are also aspects that we help with in cosmetic dentistry. There are several services that we offer and take pride in here at Dynamic Smile Design. Each service is unique and an option that may be just right for you and improving the look and health of your smile.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers may be a good option for you if you generally have healthy teeth but they are misaligned, crowded and even heavily stained. Porcelain veneers are thin, custom made layers of material that are permanently bonded to the front of visible teeth to create a more even smile. Porcelain veneers are natural looking and really add to the look of your smile. Some benefits of porcelain veneers include:
- Can completely transform your smile without extensive procedures
- Natural tooth color matching capability
- Easily cared for, similar to natural teeth
While porcelain veneers may be a more expensive treatment it is an option that can solve many dental aesthetic problems in a short amount of time. It is an option that lasts and is worth the investment.
Teeth Whitening
Many different factors may lead to you needing to whiten your teeth. Food, beverages, and tobacco use are among some of them and can leave your teeth looking different shades of yellow, orange and brown. This can cause one to lose some self-confidence in their smile. We can help!
Cosmetic Bonding
When you need a temporary solution until something more permanent can be done, cosmetic bonding is the option for you. It’s less expensive than veneers and is a simple and functional option. We will start by roughening up the surface of the tooth that needs to be reshaped. A conditioning liquid is applied to prepare the tooth for bonding. A composite resin is then applied and carefully molded to create the proper shape of the tooth. A light is then placed in front of the tooth to cure and harden the resin.
Some benefits of cosmetic bonding include:
- Little to no prep work
- Quick in office treatment
- Inexpensive option when compared to veneers
One of the drawbacks is that this does not last as long as veneers. Cosmetic bonding is still an excellent option for gaining a beautiful, healthy smile.
Implant Restoration
Implant restoration is an advanced cosmetic dentistry option designed to replace missing teeth and restore both the appearance and functionality of your smile.
Dental implants are small titanium posts that act as the root of a missing tooth. Once the implant is securely placed in the jawbone, a custom-made crown is attached to complete the restoration.
This solution not only looks natural but also feels and functions like a real tooth.
Some key benefits of implant restoration include:
- Permanent, stable solution for missing teeth
- Restores ability to chew and speak with confidence
- Prevents bone loss and maintains facial structure
Durable and long-lasting with proper care Implant restoration is a fantastic investment in the long-term health and beauty of your smile, offering both aesthetic enhancement and improved oral function.
