Healthy teeth and gums are crucial to your beautiful smile. However, if you have stains, discoloration, uneven teeth, or other cosmetic issues that you would like to address, Dentist Bristow smile enhancement services can help. Before you choose smile enhancements at your dentist, it is wise to know what is involved. The following information will describe the basics of smile enhancement.
Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin pieces of porcelain dentist’s can apply over your teeth to hide discolorations, uneven teeth, gaps between teeth, slightly crooked teeth, oddly shaped teeth, or chipped teeth. If nature gave you healthy teeth and gums, but not cosmetically pleasing teeth, porcelain veneers could enhance your smile. Each thin shell is custom made to fit your teeth and to match the rest of your teeth. Unlike caps or crowns where your teeth are ground down to almost nothing, veneers require only some removal of the natural tooth’s surface.
Teeth Whitening
If you have good oral health, but your teeth are stained or discolored due to certain foods, beverages, habits, or medications, teeth whitening may bring your smile new life. Teeth whitening works best on yellow stains as opposed to gray-colored stains. This process can lighten your teeth several shades in one session so your teeth are whiter. Your Dentist Bristow VA can safely and effectively determine if you are a good candidate for this treatment so you can show off your pearly whites. Whitening solutions can include in-office whitening or at home solutions like custom trays, whitening strips, paint-on whitening, and/or whitening toothpaste.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Other types of cosmetic procedures used for smile enhancement include dental implants, dental bonding, caps, and oral surgery depending on your needs for cosmetic treatments. If you have severely crooked teeth, bite problems, or jaw alignment issues, orthodontic braces or Invisalign can be used for smile enhancement.
No longer do you have to suffer with embarrassing tooth issues or low self-esteem due to unsightly teeth when cosmetic smile enhancement services can help. Since everyone is not born with natural white and beautifully shaped teeth, cosmetic enhancement treatments can give you what nature denied you. Gainesville Dental Associates offers these services as well as general dentistry and pediatric dentistry. Browse website for more information.
