DIFFERENT TYPES OF COSMETIC DENTAL PROCEDURES





When you want to improve your smile, what are your choices for cosmetic dental work?

There is no doubt that cosmetic dentistry is on the rise. Even a few reality shows have given an inside view of how a dentist can transform almost anyone’s teeth to give them the smile they desire. Your dentist will be able to help you determine which one will work the best in brightening your smile.

Today, we'll look at 7 of the most common Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures.

1. Cosmetic Laser Teeth Whitening:
Also called "Laser teeth bleaching," this procedure can brighten and whiten your teeth from discoloration and/or staining. This procedure can be done in the Dental Clinic. Not everyone’s teeth can be bleached, so it is very important to check with your cosmetic dentist first.
2. Cosmetic Laser Gum Depigmentation:

You don't smile often because your gums are too dark! Dark gums not only make you concious while speaking, but also affect you psychologically.

Laser Gum Bleaching and Depigmentation is painless with no bleeding involved and this can instantly give the lighter shades to your gums. It's quick cosmetic procedure to remove black spots on your gums. 

3. Cosmetic Dental Veneers:
Veneers are a thin shell made out of porcelain or composite material. They are custom made and cemented to the front side of the tooth. A veneer can be used to treat dental conditions such as a slightly crooked tooth, discolored teeth, chipped teeth or even to cover spaces in between the teeth.
4. Cosmetic Tooth Bonding:
Tooth Bonding is the process in which tooth-colored materials are adhered (bonded) to the tooth. This is a procedure that can be used to repair or improve the appearance of a tooth that has been badly stained, broken, or chipped.
5. Cosmetic Dental Crowns:
Crowns, also referred to as caps, are custom made to fit over your whole tooth after the cosmetic dentist has prepared it. They are usually made out of porcelain that has been fused to metal to withstand biting pressure. Crowns can be used in cosmetic dentistry to treat teeth that are poorly shaped, badly decayed, broken, chipped, have had large fillings, or to cover spaces in between teeth.
  6. Cosmetic Dental Implants:
A dental implant is a metal device designed to replace missing teeth. The device is usually made out of titanium and is surgically placed into the jawbone where the tooth is missing. Unlike a dental bridge, an implant is permanent. A dental implant is designed to act as the tooth root and can anchor an artificial tooth or teeth such as a crown, bridge, or denture.
7. Cosmetic Orthodontic Treatment:
Orthodontics are not just for kids. More and more adults are seeking treatment from orthodontists for cosmetic purposes.  
Sometimes a cosmetic dentist also will perform alignment corrections, usually through one of the more aesthetically-pleasing options for braces such as Invisible Aligner, or through the use of veneers to replace the need for braces. 
If you have buck teeth or crooked teeth, and If you are looking for that perfect smile -complete with aligned and healthy - looking teeth - you may notice that orthodontics and cosmetic dentistry are similar in their pursuits. Both orthodontists and cosmetic dentists are specialists who can help you to correct imperfections that keep you from your teeth’s ideal appearance.
