For the health and appearance of your teeth,
dental restoration might be the way to get you back on track. Not only can the right type of dental restoration improve your dental health, but it can provide you with the boost of confidence you need to show off your smile. If you’re ready to show off that winning smile that you deserve, then it might be time to think about getting the proper restorative treatment.
If you are a patient looking to improve the aesthetic appeal of your smile, then Lumineers® or veneers may very well be just the kind of treatment that you are looking for.
Veneers and their wafer thin Lumineer® counterparts are beneficial if you are looking to correct stained, gapped, or irregularly aligned teeth without the extensive time commitment of regular orthodontics. Veneers are porcelain covers bonded to your teeth, affecting that beautiful smile gained from years of orthodontic treatment. Likewise, Lumineers® are made from a mold of your teeth, but without the grinding down of the natural tooth that is generally required in order to place veneers.
For those who are only wishing to only fix the condition of a few teeth, then they may consider having a dental crown placed. Crowns are generally beneficial when treating a tooth that is cracked, or suffering from decay. In contrast to types of veneers—that serve a primarily aesthetic function—crowns can be used for teeth that are cracked or otherwise broken, allowing them to continue to function for everyday use. Additionally, with modern ceramic and porcelain crowns, these teeth need look no different from any other healthy teeth, making it the ideal solution for a patient who has already undergone orthodontic treatment.
You may have already undergone extractions of decayed or broken teeth, in which case, dental implants may be your best option for cosmetically restorative treatment. Implants are anchored in the jawbone, ensuring a stable restoration, using natural-looking replacement tooth attached to metal posts. Additionally, if you require dentures or a dental bridge for multiple missing teeth, then implants may help to secure the holes in what could be your ideal smile.
