\n \"Cosmetic\n<\/a><\/p>\n \n

If you are not happy with your smile the way it currently looks, you should consider visiting a cosmetic dentist<\/a>. Contemporary cosmetic dentistry<\/strong> focuses on enhancing the appearance of your gums, mouth, teeth, and complete smile. The multi-billion dollar industry is steadily growing in popularity as more people seek to gain confidence in their smiles.<\/p>\n\n

How can a cosmetic dentist help?<\/h2>\n\n

There are a variety of procedures that a cosmetic dentist<\/i> can perform to improve your smile, and most are basically risk-free, without the health hazards that can accompany more invasive surgical interventions. Here are some of the issues that cosmetic dentistry can address.<\/p>\n\n

1. Fix crooked teeth<\/h3>\n\n

Braces are not the only solution for crooked teeth. Sometimes, veneers can accomplish the task of presenting a straight facade on a smile that is otherwise crooked. Veneers are custom-made, thin sheets of resin or porcelain that cover the surface of the teeth. With an extremely realistic look, veneers can solve a number of cosmetic issues, including cracked or crooked teeth, damaged enamel, or gaps between teeth.<\/p>\n\n

2. Whiten discolored teeth<\/h3>\n\n

Teeth can become stained over the years due to lifestyle choices including food, drinks, certain medications, and smoking. Removing these stains with tooth whitening is one of the most popular procedures that can be performed by a cosmetic dentist. The procedure can be performed in the office, sometimes in just one visit, with results that are higher quality and longer-lasting than what can be achieved by using an over-the-counter whitening kit. The tooth's natural appearance is restored by the hygienist, removing tartar, plaque, and debris from the surface of each tooth. Then a bleaching agent is used to whiten the teeth to a shade even lighter than this original color.<\/p>\n\n

3. Repair damaged or missing teeth<\/h3>\n\n

When a tooth is cracked, worn, or missing, a cosmetic dentist can take steps to repair it. A crown can cover the teeth and provide reinforcement, making them look more attractive while protecting the teeth against further damage. A bridge can also be used to connect and reinforce the teeth, completing your smile when there are missing pieces. Dental implants may also be used to replace teeth that have been damaged or lost. Implants are screwed to the jaw with titanium and are nearly indistinguishable from the natural teeth that surround them.<\/p>\n\n

4. Prevent tooth decay<\/h3>\n\n

When your teeth start to decay, the resulting cavities can ruin your smile and endanger your overall health. Composite bonding can repair damaged, decayed, or discolored teeth by applying a tooth-colored composite that is sculpted and cured with a high-intensity light. This procedure removes the tooth's existing damage and replaces it with the appearance of a healthy tooth.<\/p>\n\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n

If you suffer from discolored, crooked, decaying, damaged, or missing teeth, your confidence can be shaken by the state of your smile. Although you may believe you need extensive corrective dental work, you might be pleasantly surprised. A cosmetic dentist can usually recommend a few cosmetic touches to fix your issues and give you the million-dollar smile you have dreamed of.<\/p>\n\n
