Aesthetic Dentistry In Fort Worth, TX

Aesthetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of a patient’s teeth, mouth, and smile. Aesthetic dentistry can address all sorts of aesthetic flaws, from teeth discoloration and staining to chips, cracks, and gaps, to result in a bright, perfect smile. 

Aesthetic dentistry is designed to provide patients with better-looking teeth. Their focus is not on oral health but rather on enhancing the appearance of the patient’s smile.

A few of the common aesthetic dentistry services include the following:

• Teeth whitening

Teeth whitening services use special whitening chemicals or techniques to remove stains and discoloration from the surface of your teeth. When your teeth become stained or discolored, it’s easy to feel self-conscious about your smile. However, with the help of your dentist, you can say goodbye to stained teeth and achieve a bright smile. 

• Veneers

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells made from tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of your teeth. They’re often used to correct teeth that are chipped, broken, misshapen, or discolored.

• Crowns

Crowns are a type of dental restoration that completely covers a tooth. The crown is molded to fit the shape of the tooth so it looks natural and blends in. A crown can be used to strengthen a tooth or protect a weak tooth from further damage.

• Bridges

Bridges are a way of replacing a missing tooth or teeth. Bridges are made up of two dental crowns, which “bridge” the gap created by one or more missing teeth. The crowns fit over healthy teeth surrounding the gap, anchoring the bridge in place.

• Dental implants

A dental implant is a metal post made from titanium, a biocompatible metal. Using a surgical procedure, a dental implant is implanted into the jawbone, where it fuses to the bone. The dental implant acts as an anchor for a dental crown, bridge, or denture.

• Orthodontic devices

Orthodontic devices can be braces or Invisalign, and they work by gently pushing teeth into place over time to straighten the teeth. 

What are the benefits of aesthetic dentistry?

Aesthetic dentistry offers a variety of benefits. It can make your teeth look straighter, whiter, and healthier. It can also give you a more youthful appearance. Through dental procedures like teeth whitening, orthodontics, dental crowns, or dental veneers, aesthetic dentistry can help give you achieve your dream smile and your lost confidence.

Cosmetic Bonding

Cosmetic bonding is a minimally invasive procedure that can fill gaps in teeth, repair chips, cover discolorations, and even reshape teeth. A composite resin is applied to the teeth and bonded in place to cover the dental imperfections, restoring the original tooth in form and function. The resin matches the natural shade of the teeth and is indistinguishable from the other teeth. Bonding is an affordable alternative to porcelain veneers and can be used as a cosmetic or restorative procedure.

Advantages Of Dental Bonding

Dental bondings produce a complete smile transformation without extensive dental work. The tooth-colored resin is matched to the color of your teeth, allowing your smile to look natural. In just one visit, our team can complete your smile makeover. The major advantages offered by dental bonding include the following:

• Dental bonding can be completed in a single visit.
• Dental bonding is less expensive than other cosmetic treatments.
• Dental bonding is non-invasive, so there’s no need for anesthesia or dental sedation.
• Dental bonding is effective at masking dental imperfections, such as chips, cracks, and stains.
• Dental bonding is stain-resistant.

Cosmetic Bonding Procedure

Composite resin is an excellent choice for restoring your smile. When you come to our office with tooth pain or for cosmetic reasons, we will thoroughly examine your teeth. Based on our findings, we will recommend the best treatment. If dental bonding would be best for your situation, we will prepare your tooth. This involves cleansing the surface and applying a bonding material. We will then shape and smooth the material to your tooth. Once the bonding material has hardened, we will polish it and make any final adjustments.

In just one appointment, cosmetic bonding can repair minor cosmetic issues like chipped or cracked teeth, reshape a tooth, or whiten a discolored tooth affordably. However, porcelain veneers are a better choice when the tooth needs more extensive repairs.

Cosmetic Bonding - Aftercare

It is important to take good care of your teeth to increase the longevity of dental bonding.

• Follow diligent oral hygiene practices like brushing and flossing.
• Avoid chewing on hard objects like pens, ice, fingernails, and pencils. 
• Don’t use your teeth as tools to open packages. Don’t use your teeth to bite or tear things. 
• Never skip your dental visits for teeth cleanings and checkups.
