Cosmetic Dentistry

What is cosmetic dentistry?

Your smile is one of the first features that people notice about you. If you don’t have a confident smile, it can greatly affect your self-esteem.

Cosmetic dentistry has a special focus on creating the smile you want. It includes a wide range of services that can enhance your oral health, as well.

Cosmetic dentistry addresses issues such as:

• Tooth discoloration
• Missing teeth
• Chipped, unevenly shaped, or misshapen teeth
• Overbites
• Underbites
• Gaps
• Spacing problems

When you consult with Dr. Anne at Lotus Dental, she works with you to develop a customized plan to treat your cosmetic dental issues and, ultimately, give you a beautiful smile.

What procedures does cosmetic dentistry include?

Dr. Anne offers high-quality cosmetic dental treatments to improve your smile and ensure that it stays healthy.

Services include:

• Teeth whitening for yellow or discolored teeth
• Invisalign® for crooked or misaligned teeth
• Cosmetic bonding to reshape or repair teeth
• Tooth-colored fillings to match your natural tooth color
• Veneers to cover misshapen, chipped, uneven, or discolored teeth
• Dental implants to replace missing teeth as a permanent option
• Crowns to cover and protect your tooth
• Bridges to fill in the gap of a missing tooth or teeth
• Dentures to replace missing teeth
• Gum reshaping to expose more of your teeth

Several of these treatments are for aesthetic purposes only, such as teeth whitening and veneers. However, others provide restorative benefits and can even protect your oral health from developing issues in the future.

What are the benefits of cosmetic dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry can help you feel better about your smile and enhance your appearance. When you like the way you look, you gain self-confidence.

In addition to the emotional benefits, it can also improve your oral health. For example, a dental implant can replace a missing tooth to enhance your smile, but it can also restore your ability to chew and speak normally, as well as preserve the health of your jawbone and surrounding teeth.
