Natural-Looking Restorations From a Cosmetic Dentist

cosmetic dentist West Palm Beach, FL

The main goal of a cosmetic dentist is to help patients gain a smile that looks naturally beautiful and increases the overall confidence in their appearance.

There are a variety of naturally-looking restoration options cosmetic dentists offer to patients. They can treat a wide range of cosmetic concerns.

Cosmetic dentist restoration options

The treatment plan for each patient is customized. The treatment options are dependent on the issue they want to address and their preference. But, there are certain restoration options that are more natural-looking than others.

The following are four effective options for achieving a more desirable smile.

Tooth-colored crowns

Dental crowns are often mentioned in terms of general dentistry. They serve a very practical purpose: Help patients achieve better oral health and function better each day. However, they are also great options for cosmetic restoration, particularly ceramic crowns which look essentially identical to that of a natural tooth.

Tooth-colored crowns are a great option for patients who suffer a chip, crack or broken tooth that causes cosmetic issues. Patients who seek cosmetic treatment to address the effects of teeth grinding can likely benefit from tooth-colored crowns as well.

Dental veneers

Dental veneers, otherwise referred to as “Hollywood teeth,” are one of the most natural ways to repair teeth that have cosmetic imperfections. Dental veneers are thin, porcelain shells that are bonded onto the surface of the natural teeth to restore their size, shape and function.

Cosmetic dentists, along with the input of the patient, choose the best, most natural color for porcelain veneers. This ensures they look natural and improve the appearance of the patient’s smile.

Dental bridges

Dental bridges are an affordable option for replacing a missing tooth or section of several missing teeth. They also preserve the natural appearance of adjacent teeth and ultimately improve the patient’s smile. A dental bridge is an artificial tooth or multiple artificial teeth that attach to healthy adjacent teeth.

The procedure is far less invasive than that of dental implants. They also last for years if not decades without needing to be seriously repaired or replaced.

Dental implants

Many cosmetic dentists recommend dental implants as the best, most natural way to replace a missing tooth. A dental implant is a surgical device that is placed in the jawbone of the patient and serves as the artificial root of a replacement tooth. Since they bond with the jawbone the same way a natural tooth would, they last far longer than other options and look, feel and function almost identical to a natural tooth.

For patients who need to replace a section of missing teeth, implant-supported bridges are an effective, natural-looking option.
