7 COSMETIC DENTISTRY

PROCEDURES

Cosmetic dentistry primarily helps people to feel better about their smiles. Though many of these procedures can

be performed to fix oral health problems, stop painful tooth aches, and solve eating issues, they are more often used

purely for aesthetics and self-confidence.

WHY COSMETIC DENTISTRY?

Veneers are fake teeth made of ceramic that are put over or in place of existing teeth. They can be made in any shape

and a range of colors to best fit surrounding teeth.

1. VENEERS

A bonded bridge is usually used to replace a front-facing tooth with high visibility. But to attach a bonded bridge, the

teeth on either side of the missing tooth have to be filed down to bond the bridge in place. It is like getting three

veneers.

2. BONDED BRIDGE

Implants tend to be expensive, but they last a long time compared to bonded bridges or veneers because they are attached to the jaw bone rather than surrounding teeth.

3. IMPLANTS

Gum lifts are most often performed in conjunction with other cosmetic work like veneers as part of a smile

makeover. However, it is possible to have it done separately. It involves a dentist carefully cutting away part of the gum

to reveal more of the teeth.

4. GUM LIFT

These days, you can get whiter teeth with home whitening kits. But the most effective, time efficient, and long-lasting teeth whitening treatments are available at the dentist. It’s

also the least invasive of all cosmetic procedures.

5. TEETH WHITENING

Tooth shaping is performed with little sanders that grind away at the tooth to make it a different size or shape. If you want a tooth to be bigger, you may have to consider veneers

instead.

6. TOOTH SHAPING

Getting a resin colored tooth filling can be more expensive than a silver one. The resin color just looks more natural in

your mouth.

7. RESIN COLORED TOOTH FILLING
