Do you have issues with the shape of your teeth, or minor injuries? What about unsightly teeth stains? We can help! In today’s blog, your team at Dental Impressions in Ankeny, IA, discuss how we can reshape your smile, often in one visit, with cosmetic dentistry.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening can lift stains and help your smile shine. We will first look closely at your teeth to assess the severity of your discoloration. From there, we can choose the right solution to lift these stains and help your smile shine. We have an array of professional Ultradent Opalescence products. For some, we could send you home with pre-filled trays, which are worn like mouthguards and which contain a powerful bleaching gel to brighten teeth. We could also create custom trays and send these home with you, accompanied by multiple plastic syringes of bleaching gel to add to the trays. Our team could also offer same-day results with our in-office procedure, which uses a combination of bleaching gel and a light to brighten smiles.
Dental Bonding
While teeth whitening focuses solely on teeth stains, we have an option that can take on other concerns at the same time. With bonding, we apply the same composite resin to your teeth that we use in our lifelike fillings. This means your treatment takes one visit and the results blend with your smile. The bonding procedure allows our team to cover stains too severe for whitening alone. We can also fill open gaps between the teeth or even add length to worn down teeth, such as those impacted by bruxism (teeth grinding). We can repair minor injuries to the tooth, and even reshape malformed teeth. For some, this is a chance to essentially makeover your smile in only one sitting!
Dental Contouring
Dental bonding is not the only same-day cosmetic treatment we offer. Our team can use cosmetic contouring to help reshape the teeth. With this option, we do not use another material to rebuild outer structure and reshape a tooth. Instead, we will gently sand and buff the outer structure to correct multiple esthetic issues at once. For example, we can smooth away pits, grooves, and rough patches in the outer structure, and also a dress misshapen or overly large teeth. We can correct the appearance of chipped teeth and even dull portions that are sharp, jagged, or pointed.
