Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments

• Tooth Whitening

Tooth staining items like tea, coffee, and tobacco products, together with poor oral hygiene, can cause discoloration and tooth stains. These problems can be overcome with cosmetic procedures such as tooth whitening, which help remove the stains on the teeth using bleaching agents and provide whiter and brighter teeth.

• Veneers

Veneers are tailor-made in a dental lab by using teeth impressions of the patient. They are attached directly to the teeth's surface with a unique bonding agent. Veneers are good at hiding the flaws of the tooth structure, including chips, fractures, or severe discoloration.

• Dental Crowns

Crowns are fabricated from porcelain fused with a metal alloy or pure ceramic, serve as the tooth's cap, and are secured directly onto the tooth. They are created in the dental lab based on the patient's teeth impressions. The crowns help renovate the tooth's structure, protect a weakened tooth due to fracture or severe decay, hide severe discolorations and strengthen a tooth that has undergone a root canal treatment.

• Dental Bonding

Composite resins are tooth-colored bonding agents that help fill a decayed tooth or close the gaps between the teeth. The cosmetic dentist will first coarsen the tooth's surface using a mild acid, place the bonding agent, and harden it with laser light.

• Gum Contouring and Reshaping

A gummy smile can be aesthetically unpleasant. In a gum contouring procedure, the look of the gums can be improved by reattaching and reshaping the gums using laser dentistry.
