What can a cosmetic dentist do for me?
So how can a cosmetic dentist help?
While treating damaged teeth and inflamed gums often improves the overall appearance of your smile, restorative treatments may leave you wanting even better-looking results. Cosmetic dentists specialize in enhancing the aesthetics of your smile to give it that extra boost.
Because cosmetic care is meant to improve the appearance of your smile, it’s important to know what you can realistically expect from your results. Many cosmetic dentists use traditional or digital methods to provide a preview of your results during an initial consultation.
Cosmetic dentists have virtually unlimited treatment options to fit your needs and budget. If you want straighter teeth but do not necessarily need orthodontics, for example, your dentist may recommend porcelain veneers.
Is professional treatment really necessary?
Professional whitening and other treatments offer much more striking results while avoiding tooth sensitivity and other side effects.
