Cosmetic Dentistry in Canton, TX
Before we proceed with any cosmetic dental procedures, we have a consultation with you. This allows us to thoroughly examine your mouth and discuss your oral health and cosmetic goals. We also learn about your budget so that we can put together the right treatment plan for you. Each person is different, and each treatment plan is tailor-made to fit a patient’s unique needs. We offer a variety of different cosmetic dentistry services at our office.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are a popular treatment option because they can treat many problems. They’re thin dental ceramic shells covering the teeth’s front and sides. Each veneer is custom-made in a lab to fit your desired shade, size, and shape. They can treat discolored teeth, cracked or broken teeth, and crooked teeth and close gaps between your teeth in a way that looks natural.
Teeth Bonding
Since porcelain veneers are a permanent dental restoration, you may want something more temporary. Dental bonding treats many of the same conditions but is completely removable and reversible. Though it’s temporary, it still lasts for a long time. If you care for it properly, bonding material can last, on average, 3-7 years.
Teeth Whitening
Everyone experiences tooth discoloration at some point in their lives. The aging process discolors teeth, making teeth whitening the most popular cosmetic treatment. We offer in-office and take-home options based on your needs. You can get a smile up to eight shades whiter in the office within an hour.
The Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
Patients usually become interested in cosmetic dentistry because they are unhappy with the appearance of their smiles. However, cosmetic dentistry provides many other benefits.
Mental and Social Improvements
Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you. They can also notice that you focus on hiding your smile when you should laugh and talk comfortably. Your main priority when you’re socializing shouldn’t be you trying to avoid showing your smile. Social interaction is better when you can emote freely. Bad smiles contribute to mental conditions like depression and anxiety, severely compromising your self-esteem.
Your posture shows confidence, which radiates from you in public. People are drawn to others who are confident and smiley in public. This not only helps with friends and romantic prospects, but it can also improve your life professionally. Employers are more likely to trust you if you have a great smile. It shows that you’re meticulous with your appearance and have an attention to detail. You’re more likely to get that new job or promotion with a better smile.
Improving Oral Health
Though cosmetic treatment improves the appearance of your smile, it also benefits your oral health. Your bite should come together evenly to distribute pressure properly throughout your teeth. When you have an uneven bite, some teeth experience more pressure than others, causing them to wear down prematurely. With cosmetic dentistry, you can even out your bite so that the pressure is equal throughout your smile.
Uneven bites are also one of the biggest causes of TMJ disorders. When your jaw joint doesn’t track properly, it slowly breaks down. The muscles in charge of moving your joint strain and tense up. The longer you go without treatment, the worse the condition becomes. You can experience pain and tension throughout your head and face, your jaw popping and clicking, or an inability to move your jaw into certain positions.
Make Over Your Smile
We work with each patient independently to ensure that they’re getting personalized care. Your smile should look and feel natural and healthy. In some cases, you may require multiple different procedures to ensure that you get your desired smile. This all starts with a one-on-one conversation with the dentist.
Treatment options vary from the most affordable and conservative to extensive, pricier ones. We want to ensure you get treatment that works well for you, but we also understand that you must work within your budget. For some patients, we can use a single treatment option to fix all of their problems, but others require multiple. With advanced imaging technology, we can help you envision the final results of your smile makeover before it happens.
