General dentistry is known to concentrate mainly
on oral hygiene as well as preventing and
treating oral diseases. Cosmetic dentistry is an
area of specialty focusing on the appearance of
teeth. Basically, cosmetic dentistry is any
practice that may not be absolutely necessary.
All the related cosmetic procedures are based on
appearance, but there are some that do provide
restorative benefits.

With the kind of technology that is available
today, cosmetic dental procedures are safer, less
painful and more effective than ever before. More
tooth-colored materials make cosmetic results
dramatic yet natural-looking.  Cosmetic dentists
offer several smile-enhancing treatments
including Invisalign

Composite fillings Cosmetic dentists commonly
use dental fillings to treat decaying teeth. In
the past fillings were made of different
materials that always left dark spots on teeth.
Today, cosmetic dental procedures offer porcelain
or composite materials for fillings that very
closely match the color of your teeth.  They can
even replace older fillings with newer, less
visible materials.

Teeth whitening One of the most popular cosmetic
dentistry requests that you will come across is
teeth whitening. There are many patients who want
a whiter smile for special events like weddings,
anniversaries, graduations and other special
occasions. Most peoples teeth are often stained
from coffee, wine, smoking and certain foods.

Porcelain veneers Another cosmetic dentistry
option that improves the appearance of smiles
dental veneers that are also known as porcelain
laminates they bond to the surface of teeth to
repair chips and reduce discoloration. Dental
veneers may also be recommended if you have gaps
in your teeth or if tooth whitening was
unsuccessful.

Porcelain crowns Porcelain crowns help limit
crowding and repair teeth that stick out. Not
only are they used to fix dental problems, but
they lighten teeth and make gaps narrower. In
order for crowns to fit, a thin layer is shaved
off teeth and then the crowns are bonded to the
teeth.Porcelain fixed bridges For anyone
missing teeth, a great way to replace them is
with a fixed porcelain bridge. Bridges also
prevent shifting of teeth. If someone is
suffering a speech impediment, has trouble
chewing or is self-conscious of their smile
because of missing teeth, having a permanent
porcelain bridge is a cosmetic dentistry option
many cosmetic dentists recommend.

Dental implants Part of a cosmetic dentistry,
dental implants are artificial tooth root
replacements which are quite ideal for anyone who
suffers tooth loss. Dental implants often improve
smiles and give patients a youthful appearance.
Most people today appreciate cosmetic dentistry
because it creates whiter teeth and straighter
smiles. Cosmetic Dentists have the latest
equipment and specialized training in cosmetic
dentistry. With cosmetic dentistry treatments you
can whiten your teeth, fill gaps, reduce
discolorations and be happier with the appearance
of your smile.
