FAQ
What is cosmetic dentistry and how is it different from general dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on enhancing the appearance of your teeth, gums, and overall smile. While general dentistry prioritizes oral health through preventive and restorative care, cosmetic dentistry addresses issues such as discoloration, uneven teeth, and gaps. Many cosmetic treatments also provide functional benefits, like improving alignment or strengthening teeth, combining beauty with improved oral function.
Are cosmetic dentistry treatments permanent?
The longevity of cosmetic dentistry treatments varies depending on the procedure and how well you care for your teeth. For example, veneers can last 10 to 15 years with proper maintenance, while teeth whitening results may fade after one to two years. Regular dental visits, good oral hygiene, and avoiding habits like smoking or teeth grinding can help extend the life of your cosmetic improvements.
Does cosmetic dentistry hurt?
Cosmetic dentistry is designed to be as comfortable as possible. Many treatments, such as teeth whitening or dental bonding, are noninvasive and pain-free. For more involved procedures, like veneers or crown placement, local anesthesia is used to ensure you remain comfortable during the process. If you have concerns about discomfort, our dentist will work with you to address them and provide a stress-free experience.
How do I know if I am a good candidate for cosmetic dentistry?
Most people are good candidates for cosmetic dentistry as long as their oral health is in good condition. Before undergoing any cosmetic procedures, it is important to address underlying issues like cavities, gum disease, or misalignment. During your consultation, our dentist will evaluate your teeth, discuss your goals, and recommend a treatment plan that suits your needs and ensures the best results.
