In today’s blog, our team is here to talk about how to plan your cosmetic dental treatments.
Come In For A Checkup First
Before you can get started on any visual improvements to your smile, you will first need to come in for a cleaning and examination to ensure your teeth and gums are in good health. During your cleaning, plaque buildup can be removed from your teeth to help avoid cavities in the future. Your dentist will also check for signs of decay, gingivitis, worn down dental structures, and more. If any of these concerns are noticed, they will need to be treated first before any cosmetic treatments can be completed. As a general rule, you should come in for a cleaning and examination at least twice a year. If you were not able to schedule your appointment before the end of the year, the start of the new year is still a great time to do so.
Tooth decay is a common problem for patients of all ages. If your dentist spots a cavity on one of your pearly whites, a restorative dental filling can be scheduled to help treat the area. The damaged part of your tooth will be removed and cleaned before adding composite resin to the area. This restoration is minimally invasive and can help stop the decay from further wearing away your dental structures. Our team can also plan additional restorative treatments like root canals, crowns, and more if necessary.
Understanding Your Cosmetic Treatment Options
We offer various cosmetic treatments that allow patients to meet their specific smile goals. Whether your main concern is discoloration on the enamel or poorly spaced teeth, we have services available to help you. Your dentist can help you discuss your options and find the best one for your needs. If your main concern is stains on your pearly whites, a professional teeth whitening treatment or cosmetic bonding can be done to remove or conceal the discoloration. For patients who want a complete smile transformation, we also offer porcelain veneers.
In addition to upgrades to your pearly whites, we also offer botox and filler injections for patients. These esthetic treatments can help minimize the appearance of wrinkles and help you appear more youthful. If you are interested in this service, talk to our team today to learn more.
