Cosmetic Procedures and Family Dentistry

Your family dentist can perform all of the services offered by both a pediatric and an adult dentist, only for your whole family. Some of the most popular options are cosmetic or restorative procedures, correcting such issues as discolored teeth, crooked or misaligned teeth, unsightly metal fillings, crowded or rotated teeth, short or small teeth, or missing teeth or spaces between teeth.

Family members who have had their permanent teeth fully descend are eligible candidates for many cosmetic procedures such as whitening. Have your young person consult with your family dentist before trying any at-home products; immature adult teeth can turn splotchy or the gums can become irritated if at-home whitening products are used incorrectly or for too long. Because tooth discoloration can be a sign of a more serious dental issue, it is important to talk to your family dentist before moving forward with any treatment.

Your family dentist can help you with products such as dental veneers. Don’t suffer with tooth gaps, unsightly stained teeth, or crooked or badly shaped teeth. Veneers are thin layers of tooth-colored material that are placed on top of your teeth and that can correct many mistakes in your natural smile. Veneers can be used to change the color or shape of a single tooth or to spruce up an entire smile.

Talk to your family dentist about replacing your unattractive metal fillings with tooth-colored materials. You don’t have to tolerate a silver smile when you can turn to your family dentist for all-white fillings. Your smile will be far more natural and beautiful than before.

If you are missing a tooth, or are in need of a root canal procedure, talk to your dentist about your choice of crowns and bridges. A crown can save a tooth from total decay, protecting it and giving it a longer life. A bridge can keep you able to bite and chew properly, and can help maintain the shape of your face while preventing other teeth from misaligning.

Your family dentistry practice can help you make all of the decisions you need to make regarding your and your family’s dental health and appearance.
