When you hear the word cosmetic dentist, what do you think differentiates them from a general dentist? What makes them different, in particular, is just how they pay attention to the maintenance and improvement of the natural beauty of the smile of their patients.
Say you need a filling – a general dentist may recommend a metal composite restoration method because it’s been around for centuries already. However, most cosmetic dentists disagree with this.
For cosmetic dentists, porcelain is their material of choice when it comes to repairing any type of damage to their patient’s teeth because they’re malleable, easy to use, safe and most important of all, aesthetically pleasing.
Cosmetic dentists, unlike general dentists, make it their job to protect both the structural integrity and aesthetics of their patient’s smile. And, while elective, there are many cases where the treatments offered by cosmetic dentists provide much better restorative benefits compared to conventional methods, such as:
Correction of physical flaws. The procedures preferred by cosmetic dentists can help conceal, as well as correct plenty of dental problems, from misshapen teeth, chips, cracks, unsightly gaps and stains, and so on.
Improved self-esteem. Many agree that the one thing that stops you from smiling is a flawed smile. Cosmetic dentists can help fix that for you so that you can smile away all you want and be prouder of the way you look, giving your self-esteem a much-needed boost.
Future damage prevention. While most of the procedures are designed to help make teeth look beautiful, they can also affect it positively in other ways. Bonding can help improve the structural integrity of the teeth. By covering up hairline fractures or worn edges will not only improve their appearance but prevent further damage.
