While the traditional dentistry concentrates on oral hygiene, diagnosis and treatment of dental problems, cosmetic dentistry focuses to improve the appearance of a person. Cosmetic dentistry also provides aesthetic restorative treatments.

Procedures done in cosmetic dentistry:

Teeth whitening or Bleaching: It is the most common cosmetic dental procedure that people look for. Although there are many whitening options available from gels to pastes, a dentist supervised teeth whitening is the best for getting the desired result.

Teeth contouring: Teeth contouring are nothing but reshaping of tooth surface. Irregular teeth surfaces can be shaped to get a good look by contouring. This procedure takes comparatively less time than that of other dental procedures.

Bonding: Bonding is a process by which a tooth colored material is applied on the tooth surface and polished to get the natural tooth appearance. It is done in case of tooth fracture, dental caries, etc.

Bridges: Dental bridges are the bond between crowns in order to fill gaps of missing teeth.

Gum lifting: This procedure is done in patients whose gum line is below normal. Gingival tissues and the underlying bone are reshaped to get back the gum to normal contouring with the teeth.

Dental veneers: Veneers are thin tooth colored laminates that are used to cover the anterior part of the teeth. Veneers are bonded to the front of the teeth to improve the appearance that exactly mimics the looks of natural teeth.

Dental Implants: Dental implants are artificial tooth replacements for missing tooth.

Full mouth reconstruction: A full mouth reconstruction is done to correct the functional problem associated with teeth and associated structures.
