It is a methodology practiced by the oral care professionals who are focused and goal-oriented of giving the beautiful smile. Cosmetic dentistry includes variants of cosmetic dental treatments that help in restoring the teeth with a beautiful set of teeth or tooth.
Cosmetic dentistry procedure usually includes simple and there are few complexes that require specialized care.
Inlays and Onlays
These are the types of indirect fillings that are bonded on the tooth that is mildly decayed or the tooth has lost its structure to support a direct filling. In this procedure, fillings are made in the laboratory. Provided fillings material does not cause any damage to the tooth. Onlays are used when the tooth is badly damaged to cover the tooth’s entire surface. Both types of dental material are made up of composite resins that are bonded to the tooth by using adhesive dental gum. These things help to keep the strength of the teeth strongs, restore the shape, and avoid further decay.
Composite Bonding
To repair the decayed, damaged, or discolored teeth, composite material bonding is the ideal choice to recover your teeth. In the procedure of bonding composite material the dentist drills the decay from the hole of the tooth. Dentists scalp the shape of the tooth to bond the composite filling by using a high-intensity light. This composite bond covers the damage and improves the tooth. Bonding is the most expensive procedure for patients with badly decayed, chipped, or cracked teeth or half worn-out teeth.
Dental Veneers
It is a type of cosmetic dental wear that is worn by people who don’t have any solution or treatment for hard discolored or slightly chipped teeth. It is typically made up of a dental ceramic material that results in long durability. Veneers are made individually in the lab for the patients who need it. It resembles a natural tooth. To some extent, it is realistic and works the same way. It is the most preferable choice that solves numerous problems. The producers of the dental veneers are done for the front teeth by using a dental glue called adhesive.
Teeth Whitening
It is the most common yet effective cosmetic dental procedure that results in white and brighter teeth. Teeth whitening is a procedure performed on the people who have yellowish teeth and cannot be removed through normal professional cleaning treatment. In the in-office treatment, a highly-reactive chemical agent called bleach is used to remove the sticky and hard yellow stains from the teeth. Yellow teeth occur when untreated plaque and Tatar spoil the teeth and spoils the white teeth, resulting in yellow teeth. The main aim of teeth whitening is to give original natural colour to the teeth. Poor habits like smoking and chewing tobacco will result in yellow-brownish teeth. The chemical agent coated on the teeth is kept still for 30 mins until a proper brushing is done. The laser is used to lighten the teeth so that it looks natural. Post-treatment, the dentist suggests a new form of whitening toothpaste that keeps the teeth white.
Implants
Dental Implant is a prosthesis surgery of replacing the missing gap with an artificial tooth. The artificial tooth functions and looks the same, like a natural tooth. The treatment is required when the natural tooth has fallen down from the arch due to injury or accident. This treatment fixes all the dental problems by installing a replica of the natural tooth. In the procedure of fixing the implant, the dentist firstly inserts a metal-like titanium screw in the jaw bone, for the implant to stabilize properly. These implants do not create any differences between the natural teeth. The screw is fixed in the jawbone to severe the crown as support. These are the ideal choice for the replacement as compared to other prosthesis treatment. Once the implant is fused in the jaw bone it will result in long-lasting durability.
Once the implants are fused, it is very necessary for the patients to take care of the implants by practicing daily dental routine like brushing, flossing, and rinsing your mouth twice a day so that no cavities or bacteria should settle on the tooth.
