What Procedures Count as Cosmetic Dentistry

• Inlays and Onlays
• These are cosmetic procedures that are done to
  fit the inlays into the teeth and allow them to
  look more natural and restore them. This is done
  to ensure that the teeth are the best looking and
  to fill in any breaks or gaps that the tooth
  might have.
• Dental Veneers
• Veneers are placed on the outside of the teeth to
  provide a beautiful smile when it comes to
  straightening the teeth and then covering up any
  gaps or other areas on the mouth. These veneers
  provide this smile for you with ease and are easy
  to place over the teeth.
• Implants
• When teeth inside the mouth are missing, new
  teeth have to be put into the old place where
  they were. This fills in the gaps of where the
  teeth once were and it helps the person regain
  their confidence. Not only that, but the person
  is able to have a tooth that matches the others
  in their mouth.

What Procedures Count as Cosmetic Dentistry

• Teeth Whitening
• Teeth whitening is a highly popular cosmetic
  dentistry procedure that is sought after by many.
  This is a smile that is going to help you feel
  confident in all that you do. With this being
  said, you need to ask about the whitening process
  and how this can help to clear up the shades of
  your teeth, giving you a whiter look.
• Composite Bonding
• Composite bonding is another cosmetic procedure
  that is done for those that want a healthier,
  brighter smile. This is a way to shape and form
  the teeth without having to remove or add teeth
  into the mouth. A material is used to connect to
  the outside of the teeth to ensure that the right
  look and shape is given.

Cosmetic Dentistry and a Better Looking Smile and
You

• You can look into veneers, into cosmetic implants
  and more when it comes to the smile that you have
  and the way you want it to look. The professional
  will run you through the many ways your teeth can
  look with the procedure that they choose to go
  with in the end. You want to make sure that this
  is something that you can get done when you
  smile, when you want it to look different and
  when you want to shine brilliance.
• Another thing that a lot of people like to have
  done is whitening. This is a procedure that
  allows them to whiten and make their smile truly
  stand out in the end. You want to be able to
  shine brilliance everywhere you go. When this
  happens, the whitening agents that are provided
  are some of the best out there. The whitening
  procedure is higher grade then what you can do at
  home, so it has a better, brighter outcome once
  it is completed.
• Implants are another popular cosmetic procedure
  that is done to the teeth to remove the gaps that
  the person might have. When teeth are removed
  from the mouth, they have to make sure that they
  are replaced with something so that bone is not
  lost in the process. This is a big process that
  has to be done in steps but it can be worth it to
  have a tooth that is like the originals and that
  will help you retain your jaw bone.

The Many Benefits That Come with Invisalign

• The aligners that are used to straighten the
  teeth are clear, so no one knows that youre
  straightening your teeth while youre doing so
• You do not have to keep going back to the
  orthodontist every week to make sure that the
  braces are tightened, aligned and straight on the
  teeth
• There are no wires, rubber bands or anything else
  that you have to worry about when it comes to
  putting these in, just one retainer that has to
  go in and come out with time
• You just have to replace the aligners every time
  the teeth in your mouth shift. So when the first
  retainer does what needs to do, a new one is then
  made and used to move them once again

The Many Benefits That Come with Invisalign

• They are easy to use and you can use them with
  almost anything that you do and not have to worry
  about them being noticed or even feeling them
• They do not cause a lot of pain or discomfort.
  They will make the teeth sore at first, but once
  this is done then you can expect to have a normal
  feeling mouth
• Invisalign is surprisingly affordable for many
  people, plus payment plans are available for some
  and you can also ask your insurance company what
  they would cover when it comes to this type of
  teeth straightening. Some plans might cover some
  of the costs of the treatment
• The dentist will make sure that you are the right
  candidate for this, a lot of people are so you
  can benefit from having a straighter smile with
  the use of the retainers provided.

Why Choose Invisalign Over Traditional Braces?

• Clear, Unnoticeable Braces
• The retainer is put into your mouth by you and it
  will push back your teeth to where you need them
  to be. This is something that is easy to do with
  the use of the clear retainer. You want to make
  sure that no one knows youre straightening and
  with traditional wire braces, youre not able to
  do this. This is the biggest reason people choose
  this type of braces over others. They are
  virtually impossible to see to the naked eye.
• More Comfortable
• The clear retainers are more comfortable than the
  traditional wire braces. This is something that
  you want to think about, since you want to make
  the most of the teeth that you have and being
  comfortable is the best way to go about it. While
  they can make the teeth somewhat sore when a new
  retainer is put in, they do not cut or break open
  the inside of the mouth which is always a good
  thing. The retainers are smooth to the touch.

Why Choose Invisalign Over Traditional Braces?

• Less Visits
• Traditional wire braces require the person to
  come into the office often to have them tightened
  and fixed. This is something that is not needed
  for Invisalign. You just have to come in every
  now and again to get fitted for new retainers,
  but the amount of visits for this straightening
  method is about half that of the traditional
  methods.
• Better Overall Confidence
• When you choose braces that you cannot see and
  that youre able to talk in and more then youre
  choosing a way to straighten the teeth without
  having to worry about anything else that might
  come with them. This is a good thing that those
  out there want when they go to smile and want to
  smile in confidence and have the ability to get
  the right straightening method that is right for
  them and their needs or wants.

Why Dental Crowns are Necessary

• A crown is a special piece that goes over a tooth
  to make sure that it remains the right shape that
  it should be. It also ensures that it is
  strengthened and ready to go for eating,
  swallowing, talking and more. When the crown is
  placed over the tooth, it looks just like the
  rest of the tooth, so it is a part of the mouth.
  It fits right over the original tooth, like a
  crown, which is why it is named as such.
• Crowns are necessary to ensure that the person is
  able to retain the tooth that was drilled and
  filled. When this happens, the tooth then needs
  to maintain its integrity, which is always a good
  thing. If the tooth is fixed and then the person
  breaks it, then that hard work is done, pain is
  had and the person will have to have the tooth
  removed. In order to stop this from happening,
  the tooth is covered using a crown which in turn,
  then makes it stronger.
• Some think that a cap and crown are the same
  thing, but this is not true. You can get a cap
  put over a tooth when it is fixed but it does not
  cover the entire tooth. A crown is something that
  is going to cover the entire tooth and make sure
  that it is protected all the way around. This is
  always a good thing when the tooth needs to be
  held together so it does not break.
