What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Also called as SMILE DESIGNING; It is artistic dentistry that improves the appearance of teeth, gums and/or bite. It primarily focuses on improvement in dental aesthetics in color, position, shape, size, alignment and overall Smile…

Common cosmetic dental treatments include teeth whitening, dental bonding/fillings, veneers or crowns & invisible aligners.

Who needs SMILE DESIGNING?

Cosmetic dentistry is subjective to every patient and treatment plans are highly individualised. Some patients want to focus on improving their oral health while others just want to improve their overall smile. Generally, people should consider undergoing cosmetic dentistry procedure if their teeth are:

    • Stained
    • Discoloured
    • Worn
    • Chipped
    • Broken
    • Misshapen
    • Misaligned
    • Have gaps between them

Tooth Whitening :

Also Called as tooth Bleaching is a procedure that lightens the color of a tooth. Whitening may be accomplished by physical removal of the stain or a chemical reaction to lighten the tooth color( called as bleaching).

Quicker tooth lightening can be achieved through in-office whitening  products which deliver higher concentrations of carbamide peroxide than over the counter pastes and gels. Tooth lightening results are seen after one 30- to 60-minute treatment. More dramatic results can be obtained with several applications. 

Sensitivity and gingival irritation may be a common temporary side effect.

How long will the treatment last? It is difficult to predict the persistence of bleaching regimens because the patient may routinely expose their dentition to food or beverages which are known to stain teeth and would experience re-staining within a month. However, if the teeth are not exposed to chromogens such as coffee, red wine, cigarette smoke, then it would be reasonable to assume that whitened teeth could persist or up to a year.

Dental Veneers:

A dental veneer is an ultra-thin shell of tooth-colored porcelain or composite that is cemented over the facial surfaces of your teeth to correct dental dental issues including worn tooth enamel, uneven tooth alignment or spacing, tooth discoloration, and chips or cracks.

benefits include durability, an improved smile appearance, and the need for little-to-no removal of tooth structure compared to crowns. (There are even veneer variants that require no preparation of underlying tooth.

Porcelain Crowns: 

Just like veneers these are also custom made caps. The major difference is that the covering encases not just the surface of the tooth but the entire tooth, restoring it to its original shape and size. Porcelain crowns can protect and strengthen decaying or damaged teeth, which can no longer be restored with fillings or other types of restorations. They can be used cosmetically to cover  missapen or severely discoloured teeth.  

Dental Bonding Or Composite Fillings :

These are tooth coloured dental fillings which exactly match the colour of the  tooth and may be quick-fix to solve minor tooth gaps or fractures or complete surface of tooth and inturn improve the SMILE…
