Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a simple, effective, and minimally invasive cosmetic procedure. It involves applying a tooth-colored composite resin to decayed, damaged, or discolored teeth to enhance or restore their natural appearance. The process consists of roughening the tooth surface, applying a conditioning liquid, and then applying the resin. Once the resin is molded and smoothed to the desired shape, it is hardened with an ultraviolet light or laser. Dental bonding is often used to repair decayed teeth, repair chipped or cracked teeth, improve the appearance of discolored teeth, and even close spaces between teeth. It's a cost-effective solution and can usually be completed in one visit.
Dental Veneer
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of porcelain or composite resin that cover the front surface of the teeth. These are bonded to the front of the teeth, changing their color, shape, size, or length, offering a dramatic change to the appearance of your smile. Veneers are a suitable solution for teeth that are discolored, worn down, chipped or broken, misaligned, or irregularly shaped, and even for those with gaps in between. Typically, veneers offer a more conservative approach to changing a tooth's color or shape compared to crowns. They are also more stain-resistant and can replicate the natural appearance of teeth better than bonding.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures. Over time, teeth can become stained or discolored due to various factors, including food and drink, tobacco use, aging, trauma, or certain medications. Teeth whitening procedures aim to brighten and rejuvenate the natural color of the teeth. This can be achieved either in a dental office with a professional procedure or at home using prescribed kits. It's essential to consult with a dental professional to determine the best method for your individual needs and to understand the potential results and risks. Whether you opt for an in-office treatment or an at-home kit, teeth whitening can significantly enhance your smile and boost your self-confidence.
