Cosmetic Dentistry Q & A
What is cosmetic dentistry?
A cosmetic dentist improves the appearance of your smile. If you suffer from chipped, cracked, misshapen, discolored, or crooked teeth, Dr. Cummings restores your smile with a number of aesthetic procedures or dental treatments. From teeth whitening to smile makeovers, you have plenty of cosmetic choices when it comes to improving your smile.
Which cosmetic procedures are available to me?
Teeth whitening
Dr. Cummings uses the popular KöR® Whitening System to whiten her patients’ teeth. She chose KöR specifically because the whitening system uses a unique continuous refrigeration process that does not entail harsh UV lights or lasers to achieve bright, natural-looking results. The whitening process is especially comfortable for those with sensitive teeth and offers easy at-home maintenance, giving patients the chance to control their results on their own terms.
Dental veneers
Dental veneers are paper-thin custom shells fabricated out of resin or porcelain that fit over your teeth to cover imperfections like severely discolored teeth, misshapen teeth, or uneven teeth. These tooth-colored shells can easily change the color, shape, or length of your teeth, allowing you to avoid invasive dental surgery.
Are there any other cosmetic services I should consider?
Dental crowns
A crown is a cap-shaped restoration that fits directly over a damaged tooth to cover imperfections and protect the tooth from further decay. Dental crowns work well for cracked, discolored, or misshapen teeth. They can even strengthen a weakened tooth and prevent tooth decay from spreading to surrounding teeth.
Smile makeover
A smile makeover uses one or more cosmetic procedures to enhance your smile and give you the best results possible. To achieve these results, Dr. Cummings may recommend a combination of treatments, such as teeth whitening and dental crowns. There are a number of combinations that can transform your smile, making it brighter, whiter, and more aesthetically pleasing.
