Cosmetic dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry offers suitable solutions according to your problems. One or more answers can help you achieve the smile you want.

Hollywood Smile

The Hollywood Smile is the cosmetic dentistry procedure frequently preferred by celebrities and models worldwide. The operation aims to provide a bright, symmetrical, gap-free white tooth aesthetic. For this, your dentist uses high-quality veneers.

The Hollywood Smile procedure has some advantages over common veneer procedures:

• Longevity: More durable Coatings, providing a beautiful smile for years.
• Stain resistance: You can consume as much cigarette, coffee, and wine as you want with the coatings used for Hollywood Smile. You don’t have to worry about stain formation.
• Freedom of choice: You can choose an example you like or create the smile you want from scratch.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is one of the most straightforward and inexpensive cosmetic dental procedures. You can have much brighter and whiter teeth in a single visit to your dentist. Your teeth may lose whiteness and become stained over time due to food, drink, or smoking. So, your smile loses its shine. Most people’s teeth are not really “white.” Most teeth are yellow. Moreover, the color of your teeth darkens with age and becomes stained due to what you consume.

Firstly, your dentist thoroughly cleans each tooth of tartar, plaque, and other debris. Thus, it restores the natural state and original color of your teeth. Next, using a whitening agent, your dentist can make your teeth 5-8 times whiter, and your smile will change color completely. The substance your dentist uses is usually hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide and applied directly to your teeth. When this substance dissolves, oxygen enters your tooth enamel and whitens your teeth.

Teeth whitening may not be suitable for everyone, as teeth whitening is only for healthy teeth and gums. It is not possible to whiten teeth replacements or artificial teeth. In addition, teeth whitening whitens the natural color of your teeth. If you want to achieve a particular shade of white, a dental veneer may be a better option.

Dental Veneers

A dental veneer is a thin layer that is made to fit the front surface of your teeth. Dental technicians usually manufacture this layer from porcelain, sometimes resin or ceramic, entirely according to your tooth’s shape. You can think of dental veneers as caps worn over your teeth. This procedure gives your teeth a very realistic and beautiful appearance. Moreover, problems such as crookedness, damaged enamel, and gaps between teeth are solvable with dental veneers.

Firstly, your dentist will check your teeth for fillings. Next, they take a tiny amount of material from your natural tooth. Your dentist does this so your tooth does not look big after the replacement. If your tooth to be crowned is damaged, the preparation phase may take time. Depending on the damage to your tooth, your dentist decides whether to use a filling before veneering. Then, they make a mold of your mouth with a special material. Dentists call this an impression. In this way, your dental technician can make the veneer that fits the shape and size of your tooth by using the impression. Finally, your dentist adheres to the dental veneer made by the dental technician for your teeth.

The most significant advantage of dental veneers is that they provide a very realistic and healthy appearance. The layer adhered to your teeth is very thin and very strong. It completely changes the appearance of your teeth and hides imperfections. You can have a perfect appearance by losing minimal natural dental material. In addition, dental veneers act as a protector for your teeth. If you have heat-cold sensitivity in your teeth, you can get rid of your discomfort with dental veneers.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are one of the most effective cosmetic dentistry methods to fix decayed or damaged teeth. The crown fits appropriately on the damaged or decayed tooth and strengthens the tooth, giving it a natural appearance.

Dental technicians usually make dental crowns from porcelain bonded to precious metal. However, new and different materials are also available for dental crowns. For example, getting the best results with porcelain and resin materials is possible, depending on your situation. There are also very solid dental crowns made only of precious metals (gold and palladium). Dentists usually apply this type of crown to the back of the mouth for teeth in the invisible area.

Firstly, your dentist removes most of the outer surface of your damaged or decayed tooth, leaving a solid core. Therefore, they crown your tooth. Then he takes an impression of your reshaped tooth and gives it to the dental technician. The dental technician makes the crown fit your tooth perfectly. In addition, your dentist determines the color of your neighboring teeth, and the crown is produced precisely this color. Thus, it becomes impossible for your crown to be noticed.

Enamel Shaping

Tooth enamel is the covering that forms the tooth’s outer surface and protects the soft inner part. A protrusion here can both cause discomfort and spoil the appearance of your teeth. With enamel shaping, your dentist can correct minor imperfections in your natural tooth. The difference in your smile is noticeable immediately after the procedure. It can be applied in unison with enamel shaping, teeth whitening, or veneer procedures. It is a very easy and inexpensive method.

Dentists call this process re-contouring and apply it easily with standard dental cleaning tools. Removing a minimal amount from the surface of your teeth provides a softer and more harmonious appearance. For enamel shaping, a single dentist appointment is sufficient.

Dental Bonding

With dental bonding, your dentist can repair your decayed, cracked, protruding tooth. They can also whiten your discolored tooth and close the gap between your teeth. For this, dentists use materials that are compatible with the color of the enamel. The most commonly used material for dental bonding is resin. Your dentist applies the resin to your tooth and cures the material with ultraviolet light. They shape the resin so that it fuses with your tooth surface. Dental bonding is cheaper than fillings or crowns for minor cosmetic problems.

Inlays and Onlays

Inlays and Onlays are good alternatives to repair partially damaged or decayed teeth. They are made of gold, composite, or porcelain materials. Dentists apply dental inlays and Onlays to repair teeth that are too damaged to be treated with fillings. Dental inlays and Onlays protect the healthy part of the tooth and strengthen the rest, making it healthy. Your dentist places the dental inlay in the center of the tooth and only in the remaining areas. This method is much less invasive than dental crowns.

In addition, dental implant and orthodontic departments can provide you with more suitable alternatives to improve the appearance of your teeth.
