What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of the teeth, gums, and smile. It includes a variety of procedures that enhance the color, shape, size, and alignment of teeth. The goal is to improve both the aesthetics and functionality of the teeth, resulting in a beautiful smile.

What Procedures Can Be Done to Improve Your Smile?

  • Teeth Whitening: A procedure to brighten and whiten the teeth by removing stains or discoloration.
  • Composite Bonding: A technique used to repair chipped, cracked, or decayed teeth using tooth-colored composite resin.
  • Ceramic Veneers: Thin shells of ceramic material applied to the front surface of the teeth to improve their appearance.
  • Closing Gaps Between Teeth: Procedures like bonding or veneers to close unwanted spaces between teeth.
  • Teeth Alignment Without Braces: Aligners like Invisalign used to straighten teeth without traditional braces.
  • Replacing Missing Teeth: Dental implants, bridges, or dentures can be used to replace missing teeth.
  • Correcting Chipped Teeth: Bonding or veneers to restore the shape of a chipped tooth.
  • Gum Contouring: Sculpting the gum line to create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile.
  • Natural-Looking Front Teeth Corrections: Using various cosmetic procedures like veneers or bonding to enhance the appearance of front teeth.

Cost of Smile Designing/Smile Makeover

The cost of a smile makeover varies depending on the procedures chosen and the complexity of the treatment. Factors such as the materials used (ceramic, composite, etc.), the number of teeth involved, and the location of the dental practice all play a role in determining the final cost.

Smile Makeover Procedures

A smile makeover typically involves a combination of the following procedures:

  • Teeth Whitening: Brightening discolored teeth.
  • Teeth Aligning and Reshaping: Correcting the shape and alignment of teeth.
  • Digital Smile Design: Using digital technology to plan the ideal smile.
  • Composite Dental Veneers: For chipped teeth and closing spaces between teeth.
  • Dental Ceramic Veneers or Laminates: High-quality veneers to enhance the appearance of teeth.
  • Gum Contouring: Shaping the gums for a more balanced smile.

Complete Smile Makeover

A complete smile makeover is often necessary when multiple restorations are needed. Full mouth treatment may include replacing missing teeth with implants, bridges, or partial dentures, while also enhancing the appearance of existing teeth with porcelain crowns, composite fillings, or veneers. This treatment can improve not only the aesthetics but also the functionality and stability of the bite.

In some cases, a full mouth reconstruction can place the jaw in a healthier position and reduce facial pain by relaxing facial muscles. Dr. Nikita specializes in full mouth rehabilitation.
