Cosmetic Dentistry

Our appearance is very important, so do our smiles. A flawless smile can help a person gain more confidence as well as boosting one's self esteem. Thanks to the ever growing medical technology and the improvement in dentistry industry, we no longer need to dream of having the perfect smile. Cosmetic dentistry is a process done by professionals who offer multiple solutions to our dental problems such as missing and broken teeth, and tooth discoloration. Below are some of the more advanced and popular cosmetic dentistry procedures.

Full Mouth Rehabilitation
This is a treatment to correct the jaw muscles and any of the teeth imperfections such as worn, short or chipped teeth. Dentists will run through an advanced computerized scanning on their patients to ensure that the modification made is suitable. Many mouth problems that are caused from accidents or birth defects can be solved using this procedure.

Dental Implants
People with missing or broken teeth can have them artificially replaced. These implants are strong, natural looking and do not harm the neighboring teeth. Most of the implants now use titanium post to be attached to the jaw bone and the rest is covered by porcelain crown that has been made into a tooth shape.

Veneers
It's a water thin shell of porcelain that can be fitted onto the front surface of the teeth to create a cosmetic improvement. Veneers are used to make changes over cracked, discolored or misaligned teeth. Furthermore, they can last for years and extremely stain resistant.

Teeth Whitening
Teeth can be easily stained or discolored due to consumption of coffee, red wine, tea and tobacco. These problems can be solved by cleaning the teeth with peroxide and laser ray will be used to accelerate the process. The entire teeth whitening process may take up about an hour. Touch ups or maintenance is required for a prolonged effect.

Orthodontic
It's a type of practice done by dentist by using braces to correct any irregularities of the teeth. In recent years, 6 month smiles are introduced to the market to compete with the traditional braces. This product is less expensive, more comfortable, and less visible. The best thing is, they only take up to an average of 6 months time to give you the result.

Regardless of any cosmetic dentistry solution you opt for, as a patient you still have to take a good care of what you have invested as to ensure the teeth stay well for a long time.
