How a Cosmetic Dentist Can Correct Minor Issues

1. Discolored teeth

The number one dental problem addressed by these treatments is discolored or stained teeth. Foods, drinks, smoking, medication, and aging can contribute to discolored teeth, and no amount of brushing and flossing can completely clear or restore yellow or stained teeth to a brilliant white. Cosmetic dentistry provides options both in-office or at home for whitening a smile and creating healthier-looking teeth.

2. Uneven or strangely shaped teeth

Bad habits like teeth grinding can lead to teeth that are oddly shaped or uneven. Bite disorders and TMJ disorder can also cause teeth to become physically different, leading to unstable support for the jaw or facial structure. A cosmetic dentist can help reshape the teeth to restore uniformity.

3. Broken or cracked teeth

There are many causes of cracked or broken teeth, though trauma, decay, and aging are the most common reasons. Not only can teeth issues make it challenging to present a positive, self-confident smile, but they can create significant problems with eating, speaking, and cleaning the teeth thoroughly. Procedures like veneers, bonding, and recontouring can create more consistency between teeth structure and appearance.

4. Gapped teeth

Tooth loss or natural gaps can make chewing or speaking more difficult. Gaps between teeth allow food to get stuck and create an increased risk of decay. Cosmetic dental treatments can fix gaps through bonding or the use of clear aligners.

5. Chipped teeth

Those who open packages or bottles with their teeth or those who have had experienced mouth trauma may have a chipped tooth. This is a common dental problem, but it can be easily resolved. Cosmetic treatments include porcelain veneers, cosmetic bonding, or a dental crown.

6. Crooked teeth

In many cases, patients want their crooked teeth fixed to create a beautiful. However, crooked teeth can also lead to cavities and decay because it is harder to keep all areas of the teeth clean. Braces are not the only solution for addressing crooked teeth. Clear aligners and veneers are used in cosmetic dentistry.
