What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

The main purpose of cosmetic dentistry is give you that sparkling hollywood smile you’ve always wanted by focusing on your teeth, mouth and of course, your smile.

One of the most common trends these days are smile Makeovers.  Smile Makeovers combine multiple cosmetic dentistry procedures, such as dental implants, dental veneers or Lumineers and teeth whitening, to achieve the desired appearance and smile.

Full mouth reconstruction is another popular cosmetic procedure.  This cosmetic dental procedure will include, again, a variety of dental procedures, but this time focusing more on the functional problems than cosmetic problems, such as bone structure, muscles, teeth, and your bite.  Full mouth reconstruction will also include some of the cosmetic treatments as well to accomplish the desired smile.

In some cases, full mouth reconstruction will involve multiple dentists who focus on their expertise in order to accomplish the desired outcome.

Cosmetic dentistry can also provide restorative benefits as well.  For example, dental crowns in the past were primarily filled with gold, amalgam or other materials.  Today, dental crowns may fall into the cosmetic dentistry category because you are able to choose crowns made of porcelain or composite materials that closely match the color of your own teeth, therefore maintaining the natural appearance of your teeth and beautiful smile.

Because of these dental advancements, more and more people are having their old crowns and fillings replaced with newer, tooth-colored materials to enhance their appearance and smile.

Today, the most commonly used cosmetic dental procedures are:
- Dental Implants
- Dental Fillings
- Bonding
- Cerec Crowns
- Teeth Whitening
- Lumineers
- Veneers

Any of of these procedures and dramatically improve your smile and give you that appearance you’ve always dreamed of.

While Tooth whitening is the cheapest and most commen cosmetic procedure performed, dental implants are on the rise and fastly becoming one of the most popular cosmetic procedures done today.
