Six Types Of Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures

At present, cosmetic dentistry is more popular than ever because everyone wants a whiter, straighter, beautiful smile.

As you may be thinking, the main goal of cosmetic dentistry is to improve the appearance of a person’s teeth, mouth and smile and provide desired treatments or services, while general dental practices address dental problems that require necessary treatment.

Today’s cosmetic dentistry includes teeth whitening, teeth bonding, teeth-colored restorations and fillings, veneers, crowns, bridges, braces, dental implants, gum reshaping, enamel shaping. You and your dentist will decide all the procedures you need in order to have a perfect smile. 

Teeth whitening

Over time, teeth can become stained especially after smoking, taking certain medications, or consuming food and beverages such as coffee and tea. Dr. Arhiri will whiten your teeth in his dental practice in order to increase your confidence and everyone to notice the change. If you want a teeth whitening in Berwyn, you can call Dr. Arhiri at 610.647.7611.

Dental bonding

Dental bonding may improve the appearance of your teeth if they have excess space between them, or if they are chipped, broken or cracked. This procedure is usually done in a single visit office.

Porcelain crowns

Dental crowns are used to restore a tooth to its normal shape and size, while also strengthening and improving its appearance. Crowns can also be used to attach bridges, to protect a weak tooth from breaking or restore one that’s already broken.

Dental implants

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants are made up of titanium and other materials that are compatible with the human body. They provide stable support for the artificial teeth. If you are searching for dental implants in Berwyn, you can call Dr. Arhiri at 610.647.7611.

Braces

People of almost all the ages are taking the advantages of using braces. Braces not only improve the look of the teeth that are crowded or crooked. They can improve an irregular bite and correct jaw positioning and jaw joint disorders. There are different types of braces available, from the metal ones to the “invisible” ones. Your dentist will recommend the most suitable for you. Braces work by applying steady pressure over time to slowly move teeth into alignment.

Zirconium bridges

Dental bridges “bridge” the gap created by one or more missing teeth. A bridge is made up of two or more crown for the teeth either side of the gap and a false tooth/teeth in between.  Dental bridges are supported by natural teeth or implants.

Enamel reshaping (contouring)

It is a quick and painless procedure of shaping natural teeth to improve their appearance. It is used to correct small imperfections such as uneven teeth or teeth that are slightly overcrowded.

As you can see, cosmetic dentistry offers a lot of options for people which are not satisfied with their smile. If the answer to the question “Do you like your smile?” is “no”, call us today at 610.647.7611 to make an appointment. Dr. Arhiri is here to give you the best solution.
