When you daydream about your perfect smile, what do you see? Today, it’s not a question of how to get the smile you want, but when.
Using natural-looking materials like porcelain, ceramic, and dental composites, there’s virtually no problem your cosmetic dentist in East Aurora, NY can’t fix! Let’s take a look at three of the most popular options in cosmetic dentistry and how each can improve your smile.
Have you spent way too much money on over-the-counter whitening products only to be disappointed by the results? It can be hard not to be drawn in by all the claims made by these products, but they’re only of value if they produce the results you want.
Whitening with a professional kit at home is popular because it’s easy and you can do it at your own pace. The real benefit, though, is the customized whitening trays that are designed to fit perfectly over your teeth to protect your gums from irritation and deliver consistent results.
Want a dramatic change without breaking your budget? Dental bonding uses the same tooth-colored material used for natural-looking fillings. Layers are gradually built up to reshape a tooth to repair broken or chipped teeth and conceal cosmetic flaws like uneven spacing between teeth. Patients like bonding because it’s easy and affordable, and the dentist can usually repair several teeth during one appointment.
Dental veneers are tooth-shaped shells of porcelain that create a new tooth surface that conceals whatever is beneath it. Your dentist uses veneers to correct many of the same issues as bonding, but because of their design, they can also be used to correct the appearance of mild tooth misalignment. With proper oral hygiene and care, dental veneers can last as long as 15 years.
