Cosmetic dentistry consists of treatments designed to help address issues with the beauty of your smile. From teeth stains to even damaged or misshapen teeth, we can boost the appearance of your teeth, often in only one visit. In today’s blog, Dental Impressions in Ankeny, IA, talks about our cosmetic treatment options!
Starting with an Initial Visit to Our Team
To start your cosmetic treatment experience, we want to look at your smile. We will talk to you about your goals and what you want to see corrected, and then we will look at your teeth, gums, and interior tissue with digital x-rays and intraoral cameras. With these images, we can assess the cause and severity of your cosmetic concerns with precision and accuracy. We then create a plan to correct these concerns and offer better oral health and bite function (and a more attractive appearance).
Teeth Whitening
If you have stains on your teeth, then we can help with teeth whitening. Our treatments can offer more dramatic results that last longer than the results offered with store-bought strips and toothpastes. We have an array of Ultradent Opalescence products. We can provide pre-filled trays you wear at home, and also create custom trays to help target stains and brighten teeth by several shades. We also have an in-office option if you need results quickly, as this can brighten teeth in an hour or two total. We will help you choose an option that can offer your best and brightest smile.
Bonding and Contouring
Our team can also provide cosmetic dentistry to offer repair in only one visit. With dental bonding, our team can use the same composite resin that makes up our lifelike fillings to repair damage, mask teeth stains, lengthen worn down teeth, and more, all in one visit. With contouring, we will sand and buff the teeth to correct an array of esthetic issues in only one sitting. Contouring can correct the shape of overly large, malformed, or chipped teeth. This can smooth away pits, grooves, and rough patches in the tooth’s surface, and also dull portions that are sharp, jagged, or rough.
If you have issues with the appearance of your smile, then let us know. We can provide results that look natural and blend with your smile. If you have tooth decay or infection, we could offer fillings and lifelike crowns, and even tooth loss can be addressed with cosmetic results, using custom bridges and dentures.
