Cosmetic Dentistry Can Help Your Smile Really Shine

Do you want to help remove stains and brighten your teeth? What about repairing damage and reshaping your teeth? With cosmetic dentistry, our team can offer major improvements for your smile, and sometimes in only one visit. In today’s blog, your team at Dental Impressions in Ankeny, IA, talks about helping your smile with cosmetic dentistry.

Starting Cosmetic Consultation

To begin, be sure you schedule a consultation, in which we take a close look at your smile with digital imaging to assess the cause and extent of your esthetic issues. From there, we can create a treatment plan to boost the appearance of your smile and tackle the imperfections that make you feel self-conscious. Every smile is unique, so we can offer multiple teeth whitening options and offer bonding and contouring, which can be customized for your smile to offer an attractive smile in as little as one visit.

Professional Teeth Whitening

If you have teeth stains, we can assess the cause and severity of your stains, so we can choose the most appropriate option to whiten them. For some, we could offer an in-office procedure that brightens teeth in only one sitting. For more severe stains, we could also provide a take-home kit, so you can brighten smiles from home. For example, we can offer pre-filled trays or custom trays and multiple plastic syringes of bleaching gel. With these options, you wear gel-filled trays each day for about a week to see a smile several shades brighter! You can then use the leftover trays and any remaining gel for touch-ups down the road in the months to come, keeping your smile shining.

Bonding and Contouring

Our team can also offer same-day cosmetic treatment, with bonding and contouring. With bonding, we apply a special composite resin to the tooth, one we shade to blend with your teeth. This can repair chips, reshape teeth, fill gaps between them, and even lengthen worn down teeth. We can also cover up teeth stains, all in one sitting!

With contouring, we will sand and buff the tooth to reshape malformed teeth and overly large teeth. We can correct the appearance of minor chips, and also dull parts of the teeth that are sharp, jagged, pointed. We can also smooth away pits, grooves, and rough patches in your tooth.

If you have any questions about our approach to cosmetic dentistry, then contact our team today to learn more and get started! We want you to smile with confidence, and that is possible with cosmetic dentistry.
