What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is intended to improve the appearance of the teeth, gums and overall smile. Special treatments and materials are used to hide or fix aesthetic imperfections and create a more attractive smile. Depending on the needs of the patient, a single procedure may be performed by itself, or several procedures combined for a complete transformation.
Dr. Singer and Dr. Carpenter are uniquely qualified to perform cosmetic dentistry because he has invested many years in learning the details, dynamics and disciplines of the specialty. Their mastery of cosmetic dentistry allows them to handle even the most complicated cases. Both Dr. Singer and Dr. Carpenter listen carefully to what patients say and strive to satisfy their wants and needs in the best way possible.
Am I a Candidate for Cosmetic Dentistry?
You may be a suitable candidate for cosmetic dentistry if you have good overall dental health, yet feel embarrassed by one or more of the following:
- A chipped or cracked tooth
- Unevenly shaped or sized teeth
- Small gaps or spaces in between the teeth
- A dull or discolored smile
- Other aesthetic imperfections that keep you from smiling, laughing or showing off your teeth
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is the process of lightening dull or discolored teeth to create a dazzling white smile. The treatment breaks up deep-set stains and improves the appearance of yellow or brown teeth. Dr. Singer and Dr. Carpenter offer in-office teeth whitening treatments, which take under an hour; or, they can create customized whitening trays for you to use at your convenience.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers can be used to cover up a multitude of problems, including cracked, crooked, misshapen or discolored teeth. These thin pieces of porcelain are placed over the surface of the teeth to hide imperfections and create a more attractive tooth. Dr. Singer or Dr. Carpenter can place one veneer or a set of veneers, depending on the needs of the patient.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a simple and conservative way to transform imperfect teeth. A composite resin material is applied to the tooth to hide flaws or improve the color and shape of the tooth.
Smile Makeover
Smile makeover is the process of combining two or more cosmetic dentistry treatments to completely redesign the smile. Every smile makeover is different; the treatment plan is based on the specific concerns and needs of the patient. Because of the complexity of a smile makeover, the process should be managed by a trained, experienced and skilled cosmetic dentist like Dr. Carpenter and Dr. Singer.
