Every aspect of one’s appearance plays a role in their confidence. That very much includes one’s smile. It is important to treat our teeth to keep up with our dental health and to be proud of our appearance and feel! Even small imperfections can play a major role in how we feel about ourselves.
You deserve to feel bright and radiant in your own body. Because of this, our El Paso cosmetic dentistry services aim to provide the changes you are looking for with your teeth!
1) Bright, White Teeth
A problem most people will experience is yellow teeth. Often caused by the foods we eat, cosmetic dentistry provides services to whiten and brighten teeth. Patients can take the following approaches to whiten their teeth via cosmetic dentistry:
- In-office teeth whitening
- Inlays and Onlays
- Inlays fill the area between the cusps of the tooth
- Onlays cover the cusp of the tooth
- Dental bonding
- Veneers
You can speak with a professional to learn more about each of these options and how you want to whiten your teeth.
2) Replace Missing Teeth
If you have missing teeth, this is yet another area that cosmetic dentistry can provide. Missing teeth are often a result due to the following:
- Injuries or accidents
- Tooth decay
This cosmetic procedure makes up for the idea that your adult teeth can never grow back. A professional can shape new teeth to match your natural teeth and fill them with dental bridges, dental crowns, or even dentures (which are used for extreme cases).
3) Fill Gaps
Similar to how dental professionals fill missing teeth, cosmetic dentistry helps those with gaps between their teeth, no matter how big or small! Dental bridges and dental bonding are some of the best options for filling in gaps. Veneers, while more costly, are also an option if patients are interested.
The difference between dental bonding and bridges is that bonding is the application of composite resin to the tooth’s surface. Bridges use artificial teeth to join the teeth together.
4) Alter the Shape of Teeth
If you want to alter or change the shape of your teeth, cosmetic dentistry from Lee Trevino Dental is your best choice. Our services can file teeth to make teeth smaller, and we can also smooth out the ridges on the bottom of your teeth for a more even smile! Patients can also have veneers or dental bonding done to reduce or increase the amount of gum that shows when they smile. Additionally, teeth can be shaped to look round or squared, depending on your preferences.
5) Correct Cooked, Misaligned, Crowded Teeth
Most clinics, including family dental clinics, include orthodontic procedures to treat crooked, misaligned, or crowded teeth. These procedures offer:
- Braces
- Invisible dental aligners
These services are used to treat moderate cases of crooked or misaligned teeth. For more serious cases of crowded teeth, dentists offer dental bonding. This is an ideal choice for teeth that are extremely crooked and if you are looking for quick results, as braces can require years to take effect.
6) Provide a Whole New Set of Teeth
Cosmetic dentistry is designed to provide a new set of teeth if this is necessary for patients. Most patients who plan on getting a whole new set are those who have dealt with several dental concerns for several years. Although, if you want to replace some teeth, this is definitely an option you can discuss with a professional.
Dental implants are made out of metals such as titanium or zirconia and are embedded into the gum line to ensure they perform as needed.
7) Get Rid of Stains, Cracks, Chips
You don’t have to have entirely yellow teeth or missing teeth to inquire into cosmetic dentistry. Professionals who specialize in this area of dentistry are more than equipped with the knowledge and tools to rework teeth to treat stains, cracks, and chips! Dental bonding, yet again, is often used to treat these dental issues. Even better, these imperfections usually only require one visit, and you can walk out with a noticeably new smile!
8) Treat Minor Imperfections
Most people who are unsatisfied with their teeth or their smile are those who have minor imperfections such as:
- Slight discoloration
- Small gaps
- Small chips in front teeth
- Mildly crooked teeth
- And more
A professional will find the best approach for these imperfections. This means a dentist may be able to offer quick and cost-effective procedures to get you in right away and out with a smile you feel confident in!
