Whether you have an important event coming up or you’re just tired of seeing your tired smile every day on work video calls, there’s a cosmetic dentistry solution for you. Thanks to advancements in technology, cosmetic dentistry is more affordable than ever before and is no longer only for celebrities. In fact, these treatments are some of the most commonly completed by your dentist in Buckhead. Don’t wait to get the smile of your dreams, check out a few easy ways you can transform your smile.
What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, cosmetic dentistry is “dentistry aimed at creating a positive change to your teeth and your smile.” But that can mean different things to different people, which is why there are several different types of cosmetic dentistry solutions available in Buckhead depending on your specific needs and wants.
- Smile Whitening – The most common type of cosmetic dentistry completed by dentists (and even sometimes by patients at home) is smile whitening. This treatment can whiten the appearance of teeth and create a dazzling white smile. However, not all smile whitening is created equally. Professional, in-office smile whitening with your dentist in Buckhead can transform your smile’s color in just one visit, whereas other methods take several treatments. Either way, we always recommend talking with your dentist before starting any smile whitening treatment to make sure it’s the right solution for you and that your teeth are healthy enough. Sometimes tooth stains are too deep and won’t be fixed by smile whitening alone. So, before you spend money on over-the-counter strips, make sure your type of tooth discoloration can be improved with whitening.
- Veneers – If traditional smile whitening treatments aren’t for you, don’t fret, we have other options – one of which is dental veneers. These thin pieces of porcelain can whiten teeth, cover up chips or breaks, and fill in gaps. They’re custom-created to seamlessly flow with your teeth and can transform your smile.
- Bonding – Outside of discoloration, other cosmetic concerns may include chips, breaks, or gaps. When appropriate, dental bonding can be used to fix all of these ailments. Your dentist in Buckhead can complete a dental procedure quickly and easily and can give you a smile you’re confident about.
- Smile Makeovers – Sometimes your dentist will recommend a combination of cosmetic dentistry services (and often restorative dentistry treatments) to achieve the smile you’re looking for. This is known as a smile makeover and can be life-changing. Your dentist will carefully plan the stages of your transformation and make sure you’re involved every step of the way.
