At SouthEnd Dentistry in Charlotte we have a wide range of cosmetic dentistry options that will improve the appearance of your smile.
When it comes to cosmetic treatments, we’re a “one-stop-shop”. From simple treatments like tooth-colored fillings and teeth whitening, to full mouth restorations and dental implants, we can do it all. Wondering which options are best for your smile? Here’s a few things to know about popular cosmetic solutions:
1. Veneers – The Best Option For Misshapen, Stained, Or Slightly Damaged Teeth
Porcelain veneers are a fantastic choice if your teeth are stained, crooked, or misshapen. Veneers can also be used to treat teeth that have very minor chips, and to help treat sensitive teeth. Veneers are typically built from high-quality porcelain ceramic material. They’re designed to fit perfectly over your existing teeth, essentially replacing them completely, and covering up any cosmetic imperfections.
2. Dental Bridges – Replacing One Or More Missing Teeth (On A Budget)
If you’re missing one or more teeth, you may be self-conscious about your smile. In addition, losing teeth can lead to other major dental health issues and unpleasant side effects.
If you’re missing one or more adjacent teeth, a dental bridge replace them and repair your smile. As the name suggests, a dental bridge uses two dental crowns, which are attached to two healthy “abutment teeth”, and one or more false teeth to literally create a “bridge” that fills in your missing teeth. Compared to other alternatives like partial dentures, dental bridges look and feel more natural, and last much longer.
3. Porcelain Crowns – Best For Repairing Tooth Damage And Replacing Old Dental Work
Porcelain crowns are built to cover up, or “cap”, the entire chewing surface of your tooth above the gumline. By doing so, they can create a natural-looking tooth, and protect your remaining tooth enamel.
Most commonly, porcelain crowns are used to treat teeth that are seriously decayed and have undergone root canal therapy, or teeth that have been cracked or damaged. However, because they’re tooth-colored, they can also be used to replace old crowns made of materials like gold and steel, to restore and refresh your smile.
