Veneers
When you see a movie star with perfect teeth, there’s a good chance that veneers were used to craft that smile! Veneers are a thin piece of either porcelain or composite resin that is bonded to the front of your tooth. One of the most versatile solutions out there, veneers can be used to correct cosmetic problems by improving the color, shape, length, or size of a tooth. They are an excellent choice to help correct uneven tooth shape, covering chips and cracks, concealing gaps between teeth, and correcting the appearance of slightly misaligned teeth. You can get one veneer or several, depending on your cosmetic goals. Click here to learn more about Veneers.
Cosmetic Fillings
If you need a filling, there are two main materials that can be used to do the job – amalgam or composite resin. Both are safe to use and effective. The difference is the cosmetic result. Amalgam is a traditional metal filling that looks like a silver or gray spot against the white of your tooth. Composite resin fillings, in comparison, can be created to exactly match the shade of your natural tooth.
Composite resin fillings are generally recommended for teeth that are highly visible or in the front of your mouth. If you have existing amalgam fillings, you may want to consider replacing them with composite resin for a more natural look, especially if they are leaking or causing other problems.
Composite resin can also be used in a process called bonding. Your dentist will apply the material in a putty-like state to the surface of your tooth to give it the perfect shape. The material hardens, and then your dentist trims and polishes it further to make it look flawless.
