What is cosmetic dentistry?
Though some cosmetic dentistry treatments can improve the functionality of your smile, this facet of dentistry focuses on making your smile appear more beautiful. Cosmetic dentistry can whiten the color of your teeth, repair chips or cracks, and even overhaul your smile altogether to give it an entirely different appearance.
Common Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures in Port Orchard, WA
- Teeth Whitening: Teeth whitening is an easy way to make a big impact on your smile. A single hour-long session can lift the color of your teeth up to ten shades brighter, giving you a smile that you will absolutely love.
- Dental Bonding: Dental bonding uses a composite resin material molded directly onto the tooth to change the appearance, repair cracks or chips, and breathe new life into an imperfect smile.
- Crowns: Often referred to as “caps,” dental crowns cover a tooth from the top to surround it on all sides. The crown can protect a compromised tooth from damage, stabilize a tooth with a large filling, or simply change the appearance of a tooth.
- Dental Implants: Dental implants replace a missing tooth and its root. Unlike traditional tooth replacement options, however, implants are permanent and nonremovable, giving you the freedom to eat, drink, and speak without second-guessing yourself.
- Veneers: Veneers combine the ideas of several cosmetic procedures into a single treatment. Made from porcelain, a veneer fits over the surface of a tooth to change its color, length, or width, repair cracks, chips or other imperfections, or completely change the tooth’s appearance altogether.
