Parental dental tips

Cosmetic dentists offer a range of dental services, including some that you might not expect. If you are not completely satisfied with the way you look, the following treatments might help.

1. Teeth Whitening

Perhaps the most popular dental service offered by cosmetic dentists, teeth whitening allows you to get rid of stains from your teeth and enjoy a whiter smile. Professional teeth whitening is more effective than kits or toothpastes that you can use at home, giving instantly noticeable results. It is also completely safe, with dentists taking great care not to overexpose your teeth or gums to the bleaching agents they use to remove stains from your teeth.

2. Dental Veneers

Veneers are a non-invasive solution to small imperfections in your smile. Dentists can attach veneers to the fronts of teeth that are cracked, chipped, badly stained, or that have minor misalignment. They can use veneers to disguise a small gap between your front teeth or improve the appearance of teeth that are unusually small or misshaped. Choose between porcelain and composite veneers, which both offer great durability but have slightly different appearances.

3. Dental Bonding

Bonding is another technique that dentists use to smooth out any irregularities in your smile. Dental bonding can repair a small chip in a front tooth, creating a fix that is almost invisible. Dental bonding is non-invasive, inexpensive, and can be carried out very quickly, all of which makes it a popular dental service offered by cosmetic dentists.

4. Invisalign

If you need more intensive intervention to straighten your smile and make it beautiful, Invisalign is a good solution. Unlike traditional methods of straightening teeth, Invisalign does not require you to spend months or years wearing ugly metal braces. Instead, you wear a series of plastic aligners that gradually apply pressure to your teeth to move them into the correct positions. They are almost invisible and you can take them out at any time.

5. Botox

You might be surprised to see your cosmetic dentist offering Botox treatments, but in fact, it makes sense. Cosmetic dentists are highly trained in giving injections, working with facial anatomy, and considering aesthetics when administering treatments. Botox treatment can reduce the appearance of wrinkles around the mouth or eyes, which can make you look much more youthful. When you go to your cosmetic dentist for Botox treatment, you can be sure you are in safe hands.
