Cosmetic dentistry in Lodi and Elk Grove, CA, can be about more than a beautiful smile. Some options even promote improved oral health. Let’s explore the various options and their unique benefits.
Cosmetic Dentistry Options and Benefits
Professional Teeth Whitening
Teeth stain for various reasons, including the foods and drinks we consume, and as a normal part of aging.
Professional teeth whitening can take years off your appearance and give you a more youthful smile.
The benefits of teeth whitening include restoring confidence and choosing lighter restorations like crowns and veneers—restorations will not lighten with teeth whitening.
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers give you a symmetrical smile by concealing most tooth flaws.
Dental veneers are tooth shells fitted to the teeth. They can hide the following issues:
- Too much gum showing when you smile
- Mildly crooked or misaligned teeth
- Tooth discoloration and stains
- Short or worn teeth
- General flaws and chips
Tooth-Colored Restorations
Tooth-colored restorations restore tooth damage and general issues aesthetically. For example, if you have a broken tooth, we will use a custom dental crown to rebuild it. We customize our dental crowns to match your tooth color and shape. A tooth-colored filling is another example of a tooth-colored restoration.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding hides various tooth flaws like discoloration and shape issues affordably. We make bonding material from the same composite found in tooth-colored fillings.
Invisalign® Clear Aligners
Many people think orthodontics is merely about a straight and attractive smile. There are other benefits to consider. For example, straight teeth mean more effective and efficient brushing and flossing because there are fewer overlapping places for bacteria to hide and collect.
Additionally, straight teeth promote improved oral health by reducing wear and tear on specific teeth.
Tooth Replacement
Tooth replacement improves your confidence, chewing ability, bite force, digestion, and oral health! In our dental office, we’re pleased to offer various tooth replacement options, including:
- Complete dentures
- Partial dentures
- Dental implants
- Implant-retained dentures
- Dental bridges
- Smile makeovers
A smile makeover combines various cosmetic treatment options to create your new smile. If you choose this method and have multiple issues you’d like to address, your dentist will plan treatment on a timeline that suits your lifestyle and budget.
