Candidacy for Cosmetic Dentistry

Everything that you feel is wrong with your teeth and your smile can be fixed. Therefore, you are absolutely a candidate for cosmetic dentistry. Many of today’s cosmetic dental procedures can be performed relatively quickly with superior results. So, if you are interested in having those stains removed from your teeth through tooth whitening, or have decided now is the time to have your crooked teeth taken care of, there is no reason you need to wait.

Several Kinds of Cosmetic Dental Procedures

Figuring out what cosmetic dental procedure you need is partially up to you when deciding what your ultimate aesthetic goals are, as well as input from your cosmetic dentist. Part of discussing this with your cosmetic dentist is obviously because they know more about the different procedures you’ve heard of, and may have performed many others you know nothing about. Another reason is that they are the best judge of what can and cannot be accomplished within reason. For example, if you have already tried tooth whitening and it hasn’t been much use, your cosmetic dentist may want to try in-office ZOOM! or custom take-home bleaching trays on you. Or you may want to discuss porcelain veneers, a quick way to fix staining, as well as gaps, crooked, chipped, or worn teeth.

For more in-depth procedures needed for those whose teeth show more wear and tear than average, or are missing altogether, your cosmetic dentist may want to discuss dental implants, dental bridges, and dental crowns with you. A full mouth restoration, or smile makeover, includes more than one procedure and is more time and healing intensive, but the end result restores functionality as its primary concern. Healthy gums and teeth are extremely important to your overall well-being.

Instant Orthodontics

If you have avoided getting your teeth straightened because you don’t want the stigma of wearing braces as an adult, your cosmetic dentist can give you options to something like this. Rather than wearing braces for a couple of years, your cosmetic dentist can perform an instant orthodontics procedure. In two visits, your gaps, crowding, crooked and uneven teeth are taken care of.

Good dentistry is more than cosmetic in nature. Restoring function with an aesthetically pleasing result is what most cosmetic dentists understand. So, rather than believing you are not going to be a candidate for cosmetic dentistry due to the idea that all cosmetic dentists do is make smiles look good, think again.
