A smile is the first thing everyone sees. A healthy smile can improve someone’s self-esteem. Regular cleanings will reduce the chance of cavities or gum disease from developing. Early detection of dental problems can save someone from bigger and more complex problems in the future. Dental Treatments today are more than just routine cleaning, flossing, or filling of cavities. Treatment can include teeth whitening, repair of chips or discoloration, replacement of missing teeth, and misaligned smiles. There are many non-invasive treatments that can dramatically improve the appearance of someone’s smile, including a smile makeover.
Stained teeth occur due to medication, age, smoking, foods consumed, and many other things. This discoloration could be on one or several teeth and cause someone to hide their mouth when they speak or smile. Porcelain veneers are a long-lasting treatment for teeth that are not perfect. They are thin shields of porcelain that can be cemented to the outside of teeth. It can hide discoloration or a tooth that is a different size than the other teeth. Application of a veneer is a non-invasive treatment that can correct many flaws. They look so natural that no one will know they’re not someone’s real teeth. They can be cared for in the same was as a natural tooth.
Cosmetic Dental Treatments include veneers, bleaching, metal-free restorations, and teeth whitening. No one should ever feel ashamed about the way their teeth look when these types of dental treatments are available. Metal-free restorations can eliminate the dark shadows a tooth will have if there’s an amalgam filling in the tooth. The white restoration material is strong and durable. It’s almost impossible to know it’s not someone’s real tooth. A smile makeover can safely remove the silver-looking fillings and replace them with material that matches the current color of a patient’s teeth.
Missing teeth can be replaced with dental implants. An implant takes two to three visits to complete and will stop the other teeth from shifting. Implants can help dentures remain in place without the use of adhesives. Robert S. Ogden DDS PA can perform a variety of services that is sure to make someone fall in love with their smile again.
