A cosmetic dentist can have you smiling with a valuable new and healthy look.

Cosmetic dentistry concentrates on the way a smile looks and these professionals work hard to improve the way one looks at their smile and themselves since everyone else is noticing the smile first. A positive impression begins with a beautiful smile. There are a variety of treatments available from a cosmetic dentist which can include:

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening treatments can improve the brightness of one's teeth in a single visit. The professional will apply a whitening agent to the patient's teeth after applying a protective gel to the gums. With the assistance of laser, laser light, or heat, the professional will activate the gel so that it deeply penetrates the tooth's dentin to remove stains and brighten teeth. This treatment is usually completed in an hour and provides results up to 16 times whiter smile.

Teeth Bonding

This type of cosmetic dental treatment is used to fill gaps in teeth, repair broken or damaged teeth. A natural looking composite that matches the existing tooth color is used so the repair is virtually undetectable, yet provides a natural looking improved smile.

Veneers

Veneers are thin shell like porcelain sheets that are place over existing teeth to cover cracked, chipped, and discolored teeth. These sheets are bonded to the natural tooth to improve the appearance of it.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are natural looking, artificial, and permanent replacements for missing teeth. They are fixed into the jawbone to simulate a natural tooth, root and crown. The crowns are custom made for each patient in size and color to improve and create a natural looking smile.

Tooth Alignment

Tooth alignment can be accomplished with Invisalign treatment, the invisible braces. Individuals who suffer with improperly aligned or crooked teeth can find a straighter result that's virtually undetectable by others through clear aligners. This treatment provides a faster and straighter result than traditional braces.
