Many people suffer from multiple dental problems that affect the appearance of their smile. It’s for that reason that they visit our New Jersey laser dentistry center to get the treatments that they need to make them look great. By combining various dental care treatments, we can perform what is known as a smile makeover. Let’s take a look at the smile makeover and what treatments are commonly used to improve the appearance of people’s smiles.
What is a smile makeover?
A smile makeover refers to a combination of multiple dental treatments. By performing various cosmetic procedures together, an Oakland, NJ, cosmetic and laser dentist will be able to address whatever dental problems you are facing, improving the aesthetics of your smile.
Below are just some of the most common and most popular treatments used during smile makeovers.
Porcelain Veneers
New Jersey porcelain veneers are thin shells of specially made dental porcelain that are affixed to the front portions of a patient’s teeth. When in place, the porcelain veneers will be able to mask chips, cracks, stains, and minor misalignments. What’s more, the porcelain veneers are semi-translucent and are practically undetectable in natural light or artificial light.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding refers to the use of special dental resins that are painted directly onto the surface of the teeth. It’s ideal for minor chips, cracks, and stains on the teeth. When the bonding material has dried and set, it blends in seamlessly with the rest of a patient’s tooth structure.
Teeth Whitening
If you have teeth that are discolored or stained, one of the best treatments that you can undergo is professional teeth whitening. Professional teeth whitening uses advanced bleaching agents to help reduce the appearance of stains on the teeth. Just one treatment can whiten your teeth by seven shades.
Dental Crowns
For major issues with tooth decay or tooth damage, one of the best treatments to consider is dental crowns. These are caps that are fit right over a tooth in order to restore the appearance and strength of the tooth. The dental crowns are custom-made for each patient.
Invisalign (Invisible Braces)
When you have crooked teeth or misaligned teeth, one of the best options for improving the health and appearance of your smile is Invisalign invisible braces. Invisalign uses clear plastic aligners in order to improve the overall alignment of your smile, making the process much more convenient than traditional braces.
Dental Implants
If you are missing a tooth or multiple teeth, one of the best options for anchoring dental restorations in place is dental implants. Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are surgically placed into the jawbone and gumline. They provide stability and strength comparable to natural tooth roots.
