What is cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is a specialized field in dentistry that focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and bite. It is the art of enhancing the natural beauty of your smile and improving dental aesthetics, color, shape, size, and alignment. With cosmetic dentistry, you can change your smile and improve your self-confidence. The treatments offered by cosmetic dentistry can range from simple teeth whitening to more complex procedures such as orthodontics and dental implants. The most common cosmetic dentistry procedures include teeth whitening, veneers, dental bonding, and orthodontic treatments like braces or clear aligners. Additionally, cosmetic dentistry can also correct issues such as uneven gum lines, tooth decay, chipped teeth, and gaps, giving you a smile that is not only beautiful but healthy too.
