Cosmetic Dentistry: What is it and do I need it ? Answering the second part first. That’s very subjective, will you die if you don’t have it done? No, but will you feel better about how you look after it’s done, absolutely.
Cosmetic Dentistry encompasses any dental treatment that enhances the appearance of your smile. This treatment can include:
1) Changing the color of your teeth to a lighter shade.
2) Changing the shape of your teeth to make them more pleasing esthetically.
3) Changing the position of your gum tissue to make the tissue contours and levels more even which will enhance your smile.
4) Re-positioning the lips to expose more teeth or to cover more of the teeth.
5) Jaw surgery to re-position all the teeth and jaw.
6) Braces to re-position malaligned teeth.
Each of these 6 categories have sub categories that we will be addressing in future blogs. Stay tuned.
