Dental implants
Dental implants are a popular and effective way to replace missing teeth.
They are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are surgically placed into the jawbone to support replacement teeth or bridges.
The process of getting dental implants typically involves a few steps. First, the dentist or oral surgeon will place the implant into the jawbone, where it will fuse with the bone over a period of several months. Once the implant has fused with the bone, a small connector called an abutment is attached to the implant, which will hold the replacement tooth or bridge in place.
Veneers
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are placed over the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance.
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are placed over the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. They are typically made of porcelain or composite resin and are designed to match the natural color and shape of the teeth.
Veneers can be used to improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored, chipped, or misshapen, as well as to close gaps between teeth. The process of getting veneers typically involves a few steps, including a consultation with a cosmetic dentist, preparation of the teeth, and placement of the veneers.
Aesthetic fillings
Aesthetic fillings, also known as composite fillings, are a type of dental filling that is used to repair cavities and other damage to teeth.
They are made of a tooth-colored composite resin material that blends in with the natural color of the teeth, creating a more natural and aesthetically pleasing appearance than traditional silver amalgam fillings.
The process of getting an aesthetic filling typically involves the removal of the damaged or decayed portion of the tooth and the placement of the composite resin material in layers. Each layer is hardened with a special light, and the final filling is shaped and polished to match the natural contour of the tooth.
Teeth whitening
Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental treatment that is used to remove stains and discoloration from the surface of teeth, resulting in a brighter and more attractive smile.
It is typically performed using a bleaching agent, such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide.
Teeth whitening can be done in a dental office or at home using a custom-made whitening tray provided by the dentist. In-office treatments generally take about an hour and can provide immediate results, while at-home treatments are performed over several weeks using the whitening tray and can provide more gradual results.
