Cosmetic Dentistry Options

There are so many wonderful cosmetic dentistry options to choose from when you visit Park Hills Family Dentistry. Our team can help transform almost any smile into their dream smile. However, not every treatment is for everyone. Some have more requirements than others. Read the article below to learn more about cosmetic dentistry options.

Teeth Whitening

Also known as “teeth bleaching,” this procedure can brighten and whiten your teeth to remove discoloration and/or staining. It can be done in the dental office or at home. It’s important to see your dentist in Lexington, KY, for a consultation before undergoing any treatment. Otherwise, you risk damaging your enamel. You can achieve up to 10 shades whiter when you choose professional teeth whitening.

Lumineers

Lumineers are made of porcelain or composite material that covers your natural teeth. They are an alternative to dental veneers and are custom-made and cemented to the front side of the tooth. A lumineer can be used to treat dental conditions such as a slightly crooked tooth, discolored teeth, chipped teeth, or even gaps between the teeth. Our friend, Dr. Moghadam, a cosmetic dentist in Easton, PA, agrees that lumineers can truly enhance your smile by giving you new and improved confidence.

Dental Implants

A dental implant is a metal device used to replace missing teeth. The device is typically made of titanium and is surgically implanted into the jawbone where the tooth is missing. A dental implant is designed to act as the tooth root and can support artificial teeth such as a crown, bridge, or denture. Dental implants aren’t for everyone. Patients need substantial jaw bone density to secure the dental implant. Ask Dr. Kim if dental implants are an option for you.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns, also known as caps, are custom-made to fit over your entire tooth. They are typically made of acrylic or porcelain that has been fused to metal to withstand biting pressure. Crowns can be used in cosmetic dentistry to treat teeth that are poorly shaped, badly decayed, broken, chipped, or have had large fillings, as well as to cover gaps between teeth. This treatment is an affordable way to improve your smile.

Clear Aligners

A beautiful, cohesive smile is something many of us aim to achieve. If you have misaligned teeth, consider getting clear aligners. With Clear Aligners, you can straighten your teeth in a more discrete way. Yes, you won’t have to deal with metal wires or brackets. Clear aligners offer so many amazing benefits. Ask Dr. Kim if this orthodontic treatment is for you.
