Is Cosmetic Dentistry Right for You?

Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you. But life happens, and sometimes your smile turns into one you don’t love or recognize anymore. Thankfully, you’ve got the team at David C. Wood Family & Cosmetic Dentistry in your corner. We care about all of our patients, and giving people the smiles they love is what brings us joy every day. One of the best ways we do that is through our cosmetic dentistry services. While some of these procedures are perfect for anyone, others have very specific use cases. So, let’s take a look at some of your cosmetic options and if they’re right for you.

Do You Want a Whiter Smile?

Most people love the idea of a whiter smile but hate the idea of using over-the-counter solutions. Some have even had a bad experience with drug store solutions, which often cause teeth sensitivity. But, when you put your teeth whitening in the hands of our dental experts, you get results that last! Our non-invasive approach won’t leave you with tooth sensitivity, but it will leave you with a brighter, whiter smile. 

Do You Have Chips or Cracks?

Chipped or cracked teeth can make you ashamed to smile or laugh. Thankfully, we’ve got the perfect option for this scenario: porcelain veneers. These small tooth caps repair gaps, chips, cracks, and even crooked teeth in a single visit. You’ll walk away with a perfect smile! However, we must note that if you have extensive damage to a tooth, our other cosmetic repair or restorative options might suit you better. 

Do You Need a Filling?

Fillings are probably one of the most common dentistry procedures that dental offices perform, but it’s still considered cosmetic. That’s because the resin we use comes in various shades that we can easily match to your natural tooth shade. While the goal is to repair and patch the cavity before it gets any worse, the procedure does require some manipulation of the tooth. Still, this is a very common procedure and one we do so often that we forget it’s a cosmetic improvement to any smile. 

Are You Missing Some Teeth?

If you’re missing any teeth or have some that have experienced significant damage, then dental crowns are likely our answer. This option covers the damaged tooth or teeth while restoring your natural bite and smile. What’s even better is that crowns come in all shades, giving us the best option to match your natural tooth color. Additionally, dental crowns are also used in combination with dental bridges should you ever need one of those as well.

Do You Want a Different Tooth Shape?

Here at our clinic, we use a procedure called enameloplasty. This procedure allows us to reshape or recontour your teeth, giving you a more appealing smile and tooth appearance. During this cosmetic dentistry procedure, we use tools to remove enamel from your teeth and reshape them so they best suit you. This procedure does not cause any pain, but it will leave you with a stunning grin you just can’t wait to show off.

You have all the control over your smile. So, if you don’t like something, let’s correct it! David C.
