Cosmetic Dentistry in Berwyn, IL

Cosmetic dentistry involves improving the appearance of your teeth and smile. In other words, cosmetic dentistry is anything done to your teeth that will make them look better. It may include treatments that improve the color, shape, size, alignment, and overall appearance of teeth. Cosmetic dentistry is elective, as opposed to restorative dental work, which is typically medically necessary.

Cosmetic Dentistry procedures

Cosmetic dentistry procedures include:

• Teeth whitening: Teeth whitening is a simple, non-invasive procedure that lightens the shade of your natural teeth by several shades. If you're unhappy with the shade of your teeth, teeth whitening can help.
• Dental bonding: Dental bonding is a process that is used to improve the look, feel, and function of teeth. A composite resin material, which can be matched to the color of your teeth, is applied and shaped to your tooth. Once sculpted, the material is hardened with an ultraviolet light or a laser. The resin is bonded to your tooth, which helps to give it a stronger structure and increases your durability.
• Porcelain veneers: Dental veneers are thin shells of medical-grade ceramic that are attached to the front of teeth. They are used to change the size, color, and shape of teeth.
• Orthodontics: Orthodontic treatment aim at moving one's teeth into the correct positions using braces or aligners.
• Laser gum surgery: Laser gum surgery is also called laser gum contouring, and it's a cosmetic dental treatment that reshapes gums.
• Dental implants: Dental implants are a permanent tooth replacement option that can be used to replace one, a few, or all of your teeth. They consist of a screw-like post that is placed into the jaw and then covered with a crown that looks like a natural tooth.
