Today's common cosmetic dental treatment options include: ▪ Whitening, or "tooth bleaching", is the most common cosmetic dental procedure. Zoom!® in-office whitening system is revolutionary in the art of teeth whitening. While many whitening options are now available, dentist-supervised treatments remain the recommended procedures for lightening discolored teeth. ▪ Enamel shaping removes parts of the contouring enamel to improve the appearance of the tooth. It may be used to correct a very small chip. The removed enamel is irreplaceable, and may sometimes expose dentin. It is also known as enameloplasty, odontoplasty, recontouring, reshaping, slenderizing and stripping. ▪ Contouring, also known as tooth reshaping, is one of few instant treatments now available in cosmetic dentistry. Dental reshaping and contouring is a procedure to correct crooked teeth, chipped teeth, cracked teeth or even overlapping teeth in just one session. The dental contouring procedure can even be a substitute for braces under certain circumstances. ▪ Bonding is a procedure performed on your front teeth where your natural teeth structure is replaced because of a fracture, crack, chip, or decay. An enamel-like dental composite material is applied to a tooth's surface, matched via a shade guide, sculpted into shape, hardened and then polished. ▪ Dental bridges are false teeth, known as a pontics, which are fused between two porcelain crowns to fill in the area left by a missing tooth. The two crowns holding it in place that are attached onto your teeth on each side of the false tooth. This is known as a fixed bridge. This procedure is used to replace one or more missing teeth. Fixed bridges cannot be taken out of your mouth as you might do with removable partial dentures. Bridges require your commitment to serious oral hygiene, but will last as many as ten years or more. |

▪ Veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made porcelain laminates that are bonded directly to the teeth. They are an option for closing gaps or disguising discolored teeth that do not respond well to whitening procedures.
