Common cosmetic dental procedures
Teeth whitening
Teeth whitening is one of the basic procedures needed by most people. Your teeth get stained by food, drinks, or medication. People with discoloured teeth are embarrassed to smile since it makes their teeth visible to others. Dentists clean the surface of your teeth and remove the plaque, tartar, and debris found on them. Teeth whitening can brighten your teeth and make you smile confidently.
Dental veneers
Dental veneers are thin shells that are made of medical-grade material and resemble your natural teeth. Your dentist attaches the veneer to the surface of your teeth after removing a little bit of the enamel. Damaged enamels, crooked, chipped, stained and misaligned teeth can be hidden with the veneers and give teeth a natural appearance. If teeth whitening is not possible, dental veneers boost your confidence and self-esteem.
Invisalign braces
Invisalign braces are clear braces that cover your teeth and gently move them to the correct position. These braces don’t have any metal brackets or wires that prevent you from smiling during the treatment period. Clear braces are customized for your teeth and are far more comfortable than traditional metal braces. This procedure suits teenagers and adults and helps them get their teeth aligned without being conscious of the braces.
Dental implants
Dental implants are surgical fixtures placed in your jaw bone and fuse with the bone after some time. A single tooth or several missing teeth are replaced by implants. Dental implants are fixed without affecting or altering the adjacent teeth. The implant performs the function of natural teeth and looks aesthetically pleasing. It is very stable because it fuses with your bone structure.
Inlays and Onlays
Dental inlays are used to fill cavities found in the centre of the tooth, the area in between the cusps. Onlay fills the cavity and the area surrounding it, including the cusps. Inlays are made after imprinting the affected area, and they fit perfectly in the hollow of a tooth without affecting the cusps. Your dentist will opt for an inlay when the cavity needs a stronger material to fortify the tooth. Onlays are required when the cusps are damaged, and the tooth could crack due to weakness. Inlays and Onlays protect the healthy portion of a damaged tooth and give it strength for chewing.
Dental crowns
Dental crowns are caps placed on damaged teeth to cover, protect and restore the shape of the teeth. Your tooth can lose its shape due to tooth decay or injuries. Tooth-shaped dental crowns are placed over your tooth to protect it and restore its size, shape, strength, and appearance. It looks natural and provides a comfortable fit inside your mouth. Dental crowns are also used to hold a dental bridge in place.
