Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry can improve the appearance of your smile, including your teeth and gums. It can also improve the function of your teeth and help you maintain a good oral health routine at home. Cosmetic dentistry procedures can address problems like staining and discoloration, chipped teeth, misaligned or gapped teeth, and missing teeth. Our dentist in Chandler can help you determine which option is best for you. 

Some Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments

Porcelain Veneers

One of the most popular cosmetic dentistry treatments is porcelain veneers. This procedure involves placing thin shells of tooth-colored material over the front of your teeth. The veneers are bonded to your existing teeth and can simultaneously correct a number of cosmetic issues, including gaps between teeth, uneven teeth alignment, and minor chips and cracks. Because the veneers are made from porcelain, they mimic the natural appearance of enamel as well.

After your veneers have been attached, they will be resistant to staining from coffee, wine, and other foods and beverages that you eat or drink every day. You also won't have to worry about the veneers becoming discolored over time with proper care. Your new smile can last for decades with porcelain veneers.

Dental Bonding

Many patients who visit our dental office with chipped, stained, or gapped teeth are concerned about the amount of time it is going to take to repair the problem. This is why many of them opt for dental bonding. This procedure is one of the fastest and least expensive ways to repair damaged teeth. 

The dentist will use a composite resin material which is applied to the surface of the tooth to reshape and repair the damage. The material will be shaped and polished to give you a beautiful new smile that you can be proud to show off.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is one of the most commonly requested procedures in cosmetic dentistry. Professional teeth whitening treatments offer superior results compared to over-the-counter options, which may be abrasive or ineffective. With professional teeth whitening, patients can see results in just one hour. 

Our dentists can also whiten teeth with custom-made take-home trays. These at-home trays are made to fit snugly around your teeth and are worn with special whitening gel. The whitening gel slowly removes stains from the enamel while patients sleep. 

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns cover the entire visible portion of the tooth down to the gum line. They are used to replace missing teeth, fix broken or decayed teeth, and protect weak or damaged teeth. Crowns are made from a ceramic material that matches the natural shade of the surrounding teeth. 

Ceramic crowns can be fabricated to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth. Only you and your dentist will know that you have them. 

Gum Contouring

The dentist can reshape or contour your gums for cosmetic reasons. For example, the gum line may have receded, making the teeth look longer and exposing more tooth structure. The current look of your smile may not fit the look you had when you were younger. Or perhaps you never had an ideal smile, and now you're finally ready to make a change! Whatever the case may be, our dentists can help you improve the appearance of your teeth with gum contouring.
