Chips, cracks, and other flaws can create serious issues with your smile. It only takes one unsightly tooth to throw off the symmetry of your appearance. If you want to combat this problem, you can talk to your dentist about cosmetic dental work. When a problem tooth is not impaired functionally, it often falls to cosmetic treatment to make improvements. A bonding and contouring procedure allows your dentist to make exact changes, and make your smile look terrific. In many cases, it will be possible to complete a bonding and contouring procedure in just a single appointment!
Cosmetic Dental Care Can Address Many Different Issues With Your Appearance
Cosmetic dental flaws can come from damage, or from naturally occurring issues that impact how you look. During an initial visit, your dentist can study a tooth – or teeth – that you want to treat, and determine if cosmetic work is the appropriate answer. Dental bonding will see a tooth treated with composite resin, which can cover up chips or cracks, brighten a tooth, and even add to its size. If you have a tooth that is too large, or if it is uneven, contouring can allow your dentist to correct its shape.
Addressing Dental Flaws With A Dental Crown
More serious dental flaws may interfere with your ability to use a tooth in biting and chewing tasks. To combat more serious issues, your dentist may need to provide you with a crown. Dental crowns are designed to look like natural teeth, but they are also responsible for protecting a tooth when you bite and chew.
