Making Your Smile an Eye-Catcher with Cosmetic Dentistry

Get the Beautiful Smile You Have Always Wanted

Cosmetic dentistry is a type of dental treatment which is aimed at improving your facial appearance by fixing and improving discolored, cracked, chipped, and poorly spaced teeth. Some of the treatments available include the use of Veneers, Crowns and Teeth Whitening. These procedures don’t only improve your smile but they can improve your general sense of well-being.

Veneers Can Make a Dramatic Change

Thin porcelain material used to mask defects that have developed in the front of teeth and called dental veneers. Once in place they cover tooth problems such as broken, stained or chipped teeth. Sometime veneers can be used to close spaces between teeth as well. Generally, two visits are required in order to complete the treatment. The very minimum amount of enamel is removed when undertaking dental veneer procedures.

Discolored teeth can be improved with whitening techniques

Teeth Whitening techniques can be used to improve the color of yellowing or otherwise discolored teeth. Both home bleaching kits and in-office treatments are offered by Dr. VanderMolen and provide great results. Professional teeth whitening is much more effective that drug-store treatments that are only effective on surface stains.

Crowns Are a Solution to Damaged Teeth

The aim of Dental crowns is to restore damaged teeth so that the overall facial appearance is improved.

They are commonly used:

• To improve the appearance and strength of a tooth that has undergone root canal treatment.
• To repair and improve the appearance of a cracked or broken tooth.
• To provide a covering for a crooked tooth.
• To improve the visual appearance of a dental implant.
• To help to keep a full dental bridge or partial dentures in place.

Crowns require the removal of a significant amount of tooth enamel, but in the end, they provide a strong and natural-looking solution.
