Unhappy with your smile? Know you need some changes? A smile makeover can revitalize your appearance and supercharge your confidence. For the patients who would prefer speedy solutions over several appointments in the dentist’s chair, there are smile makeover procedures that get the job done quickly. A makeover doesn’t have to be drawn-out, invasive, or include multiple treatments to make a difference. Any one of the following cosmetic dentistry and restorative dentistry options can be done efficiently and still achieve dramatic results.
Dental Bonding
Often referred to as cosmetic tooth bonding, dental bonding is a process that takes only one visit to your biomimetic dentist. When you have one or two damaged teeth marring your smile, bonding may be just the solution to ensure a natural finished look without compromising the composition of the tooth in question or the solidity of the nearby teeth.
If your teeth are chipped or cracked, decayed or fractured, discolored or stained, jagged or misshapen, or even gapped, dental bonding can make a difference. The application of tooth-colored resin is meticulously carried out by your dentist, protecting any exposed tooth root and extending the length of the tooth if necessary. Bonding can even be used as an alternative to amalgam fillings, further beautifying your smile rather than marring it with unhealthy and unsightly silver fillings.
Teeth Whitening
You may argue that you can whiten your teeth well enough with an over-the-counter product. But do-it-yourself teeth whitening treatments are not nearly as effective as a professional teeth whitening treatment. The professional bleaching agents found in your dentist’s teeth whitening products are what activate the whitening to truly brighten your teeth. There will be no uneven whitening from your dentist’s office, and you are less likely to suffer irritation with the precautions your dentist takes to protect your gums.
Most of all, a teeth whitening treatment will completely makeover your smile – usually, in less than an hour. Even if your teeth are a little uneven or crooked, professional teeth whitening will make them look healthy and make you look like a brand new and improved version of yourself. No fuss, minimally invasive, maximum impact.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Tooth-colored fillings are a versatile cosmetic and restorative dentistry repair. Not only are tooth-colored fillings used to restore decayed teeth and fill cavities, they can be used to repair broken teeth, correct cracked or chipped teeth, and reshape disfigured teeth.
One of the most important elements of tooth-colored fillings – also known as composite fillings – is that they are the safe repair option. Free of toxic mercury, which is found in unstable amalgam fillings, tooth-colored fillings also do their part for smile preservation. The remaining tooth structure of the tooth in question is not compromised by its repair and the chances of further breaking or cracking are reduced. A filling can be done in one dental visit, and you will leave with a powerful smile makeover, free of any unsightly silver in your mouth.
