How a Cosmetic Dentist Can Do for Your Smile

Cosmetic dentistry refers to dental procedures that enhance your smile. These can be just cosmetic, like tooth whitening, or they can be practical, such as improving chewing or speech, making cleaning easier, or lowering oral health concerns. Cosmetic dentistry procedures can hide stains and discolorations as well as change tooth shape, size, and alignment. Multiple treatments can be combined for a customized smile makeover. Popular cosmetic dental treatments in Australia nowadays include:

Bonding of teeth

Minor faults in your teeth can be fixed in a single consultation with tooth bonding. Tooth bonding requires little preparation and allows you to walk out with a new grin. A composite resin is applied to the tooth to fill minor fissures, build up small or damaged teeth, or conceal stains. You’ll have a smooth, even finish thanks to your dentist’s careful application of resin. Like other dental restorations, bonded teeth can be damaged and stained, therefore your dentist may advise you to avoid certain foods.

Filaments

Dentists employ white composite resin fillings to cure minor tooth decay or injuries. The tooth will be smooth and naturally white after the filling. Fillings are mostly corrective, but they can be cosmetic if you replace old metal fillings with white ones. If there isn’t enough tooth structure left to support a filling, your dentist may suggest an inlay, onlay, or crown.

Crowns

To restore a tooth’s strength, shape, alignment, or aesthetics, it might be fitted with a crown. Crowns are commonly used to repair teeth damaged by decay, trauma, or teeth grinding, but they can also be used to change a tooth’s color, size, or shape. Your dentist will need to remove enamel from the tooth before placing a crown. They will then take an impression of your personalized restoration. Crowns might be porcelain, metal, or a mix of both. The lifespan of a crown is determined by the material used and your oral hygiene habits.

Veneers

For significant defects in your teeth, your dentist may recommend veneers to cover them up. In dentistry, veneers are a thin layer of porcelain or composite resin that is applied to the front surfaces of teeth in order to make the aesthetic improvements you desire – whether that be whitening, covering chips or cracks, filling gaps, or minor straightening and straightening.

No-Prep Veneers

No-grind veneers, which are ultra-thin restorations that fit over the front surfaces of teeth to create a luminous smile, are similar in appearance to porcelain veneers in terms of design. In contrast, with this approach to veneer installation, there is no need to reduce the amount of tooth enamel present.

Whitening at the dentist

When teeth are discolored, dull, or yellow, in-office teeth whitening may be the solution for restoring the appearance of a brighter smile. Our Zoom! WhiteSpeed system may whiten tooth enamel by up to eight shades in a single visit to our office, saving you valuable time.

Home Teeth Whitening

Is it more convenient for you to whiten your teeth on your own schedule, from the comfort of your own home? Our at-home whitening kits combine custom-fit mouth trays with a professional-grade whitening gel to gradually transform your smile into one that is more radiant in appearance.

Laser Gum Sculpting

The appearance of a gummy grin and small teeth can be created by having an excess of gum tissue that is overgrown or just too much gum tissue framing your tooth structure. Laser gum sculpting is a gentle procedure that eliminates a small section of the gums, exposing more of the tooth enamel, in order to create a more proportional appearance in the smile zone.
