What’s cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is the branch of dentistry that deals with the appearance of the teeth. Recent advances in technology and dental techniques have made it easier for many people to significantly improve the look of their teeth and their smile.
What kinds of techniques does cosmetic dentistry include?
Cosmetic dentistry techniques can:
- Whiten teeth and remove stains
- reshape uneven teeth
- Restore chipped and broken teeth, often using porcelain, tooth colored crowns
- Replace old fillings with virtually invisible fillings
- Place veneers, or shells, over the front or backs of your teeth to make them look better, much like artificial fingernails.
What are the advantages to cosmetic dentistry?
The biggest advantage, of course, is that it can improve the look of your teeth, including the color, shape and positioning.
