Can a cosmetic dentistry procedure improve my smile?

Whether you have a missing tooth, gummy smile or chips in your teeth, a cosmetic dentistry procedure may offer the perfect solution to your smile issues. Common procedures include:

• Bonding: Your Norwalk dentist can restore damaged teeth, cover chips, hide discolorations, improve the shape of teeth and conceal gaps between teeth by adding tooth-colored composite resin to your teeth. Once the liquid resin is applied, it's hardened with an ultraviolet light.
• Whitening: Do you wish your teeth were whiter? Zoom! whitening offers a simple way to erase stains that dull your teeth. The system uses ultraviolet and visible light to help the whitening gel penetrate your tooth enamel. After your whitening session, your teeth may be as much as eight shades brighter.
• Veneers: Hiding the little things you don't like about your teeth is often the simplest way to boost your smile. Veneers are porcelain shells that attach to the fronts of your teeth, concealing imperfections and flaws. The restorations not only keep chips and cracks out of view but also improve the shape or length of teeth, whiten your smile, hide discolorations and close slight gaps.
• Dental Implants: Dental implants replace the roots of missing teeth and are connected to dental crowns to completely restore lost teeth. Titanium implants bond to your jawbone and serve as permanent roots for your new teeth. Implants look and feel natural and offer exceptional biting power. They're a good choice no matter how many teeth you've lost.
