What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Typical Problems
Cosmetic dentistry refers to a variety of dental procedures that may be used singly or in combination to make teeth and smiles more attractive. Some of the problems that cosmetic dentistry can correct include:
- Spaces or gaps between teeth
- Discolored teeth
- Crooked teeth
- Gummy smile
- Small or short teeth
- Unsightly or stained fillings
Cosmetic dentistry can correct problems with individual teeth or give a more natural and attractive appearance to multiple teeth.
When cosmetic dental procedures are performed on several front teeth in order to produce an overall change in the appearance of your smile the process is often called a “smile makeover.” Smile makeovers begin with a smile design consultation where diagnostic data is gathered and your goals and expectations are discussed. A plan is then formulated to achieve your desired result in harmony with your other facial features and the image you want to project.
Although popularized by television shows like “Extreme Makeover” they are not just for television. You can arrange to have your own smile makeover today. Cosmetic dentistry is being practiced in our office today and everyday.
