What is cosmetic dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry is a dental subspecialty that improves how your smile looks. It uses oral prosthetics, whitening treatments, and orthodontics to make your teeth, gums, or bite more aesthetically pleasing. Even though the goal is an enhanced appearance, some cosmetic treatments also improve oral health.

Am I a candidate for cosmetic dentistry?

Consider cosmetic dentistry at Drs. Boyd P.C. if you have:

• Chipped or cracked teeth
• Missing teeth
• Misshapen teeth
• Stained or discolored teeth
• Misaligned teeth
• Gaps or spaces between your teeth

The team makes personalized treatment recommendations after an oral exam and dental X-rays. They use high-quality restorations, ensuring a natural appearance.

What are examples of cosmetic dentistry?

The Drs. Boyd P.C. team provides various cosmetic dentistry procedures, including:

Teeth whitening

Teeth whitening removes stains from coffee, tobacco, and poor oral hygiene. It’s a quick and convenient way to make your smile up to eight shades lighter.* Drs. Boyd P.C. provides professional in-office whitening and take-home teeth whitening kits.

Veneers

Veneers are thin porcelain shells bonded to the teeth at the front of your mouth. They cover minor oral imperfections, like chips, cracks, and discoloration that doesn’t improve with teeth whitening.

Invisalign

Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that uses removable aligners to straighten your teeth and jaw. Your dentist might recommend Invisalign if you have crooked, crowded, or overlapping teeth.

Inlays and onlays

Inlays and onlays repair damaged or decaying tooth enamel. Your dentist bonds these restorations on top of your teeth, restoring their size, shape, and appearance.

Dental implants

Dental implants are titanium posts that replace your tooth roots. Your dentist inserts them into your empty tooth sockets, and they integrate with the bone underneath. Dental implants can support crowns, bridges, or implant-supported dentures.

Cosmetic gum contouring

This procedure removes excess gum tissue if you have a “gummy” smile. It helps balance your gum line and makes your smile more symmetrical.

Full mouth reconstruction (smile rehabilitation)

Your dentist recommends full mouth reconstruction if you need more than one cosmetic procedure. Full mouth reconstruction often takes several appointments but transforms your smile.
