Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry can transform the appearance of your teeth and give you a smile you love. There are cosmetic dental procedures for fixing a chipped tooth, closing gaps between teeth, and whitening dingy or yellowed teeth. Many other imperfections can be corrected with cosmetic dentistry, as well. Your Folsom cosmetic dentist can recommend the right procedures for correcting the problems of concern to you. Some of the different types of cosmetic dental procedures available include:

• Dental crowns
• Veneers
• Bonding
• Contouring
• Teeth whitening

Dental crowns and veneers both offer the possibility of totally transforming the look of problem teeth. A crown is placed over the problem tooth, much like a cap, and completely encapsulates the tooth. A veneer is applied to the front of a problem tooth. In both cases, the problem tooth is given a new look. Both crowns and veneers are commonly made from either porcelain or a resin material and can be color-matched to the surrounding teeth for a completely natural look.

Bonding and contouring provide additional options for transforming the look of problem teeth. For dental bonding, a resin material is used to fix teeth that are chipped or cracked. The material is applied over the problem area, then dried. As it dries, the resin material bonds with the tooth. The result is a tooth free of chips, cracks, or other problems. Contouring can be used to reshape teeth that overlap one another or are misshaped. A small amount of enamel is strategically removed from the problem tooth as the dentist sculpts a new shape for it.
