Learn more about how cosmetic dentistry can revitalize your smile with this basic guide from their team:

• Realignment: While seriously crooked teeth require orthodontia for realignment, cosmetic dentistry offers quick solutions for teeth that are slightly askew. Bonding, or the adhesion of tooth-colored materials to teeth, can account for excess space between teeth. Occasionally, it’s combined with enamel shaping, in which your dentist contours dental enamel to realign crooked or overlapping teeth. Veneers are custom shells cemented to the front of teeth, and they are a more durable alternative to bonding that can also be used to correct slightly crooked teeth.
• Restoration: Chipped and broken teeth, as well as teeth with cavities, will benefit from restorative cosmetic dentistry. For small cavities or chips, your dentist may use bonding. Veneers can also be applied to restore your smile after a chipped tooth. Bigger breaks or cavities may require a crown, which restores shape and appearance by covering the entire tooth. Because this is a more expensive option, your dentist will probably suggest this only when other solutions are insufficient.
• Whitening: If stains or discoloration are keeping your smile close-lipped, teeth whitening can help. Modern cosmetic dentistry offers a wide range of whitening procedures suited to various needs, including incredibly fast options like Zoom! whitening, which can lighten your teeth up to eight shades in just 45 minutes.
