What Your Cosmetic Dentist Can Do for You

Do some aesthetic flaws in your smile trouble you? A gap between your two front teeth, yellowed tooth enamel, or mild crookedness may cosmetic dentistryseem like small things, but to those of us who have less than perfect smiles, the defects seem huge. Over the past 30 years, cosmetic dentistry in Westminster, CO, and across the country has gained popularity because it dramatically changes smiles and personal outlooks. That's why Dr. Alexander Smith, at The Family Dentist, includes a long menu of aesthetic treatments in his modern dental practice.

The smile makeover

It starts with healthy teeth and gums. That means no tooth decay, extensive restorations or gum disease. With that good baseline established, Dr. Smith can examine your smile from an artistic standpoint. What changes would improve that all-important first impression? In what ways would you like your smile to be enhanced? What goals are realistic and age-appropriate?

Additionally, his complete examination, X-rays, intraoral photos and other sophisticated types of imaging tell him what's best for your smile in the long run. For instance, porcelain veneers provide a longer-lasting repair of chips and cracks than does composite resin bonding. However, veneers also require significant enamel reduction while bonding does not. So your Westminster, CO, cosmetic dentist lends his extensive expertise to making the best possible recommendations for your unique needs and preferences.

Menu of services

Some smile makeovers involve just one kind of treatment--professional teeth whitening, for example. In fact, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry says that whitening is by far today's most popular aesthetic treatment. Other makeovers combine services to arrive at the best oral function and appearance for the particular patient.

At The Family Dentist, Dr. Smith and his dedicated team offer the following cosmetic dental services:

  • Composite resin bonding. This application of a tooth-colored mixture of acrylic and glass repairs small chips, hairline cracks, gaps and mild overcrowding. Bonded right to existing tooth enamel, the resin is smoothed and polished, creating a repair that's impossible to detect and yet is very durable.
  • Porcelain veneers. These tooth-shaped shells of fine ceramic custom-cover the front of teeth which have more extensive flaws. Large chips and dark stains which don't respond to whitening procedures are common examples.
  • Professional teeth whitening. Done at the office or at home, whitening improves tooth color by as much as 8 to 10 shades. The process is fully supervised, safe, effective and a much better choice than over the counter whitening products.
  • Dental contouring. Dr. Smith uses handheld tools and fine sandpaper to even out tooth shape, cracks, pits and more. This comfortable, inexpensive process takes just one appointment.
