An Overview of the Best Dentistry Practices
Posted: Dec 28, 2016
Tooth treatment methods
There are various problems that might occur with teeth, requiring cosmetic and medical intervention. Mainly because teeth also alter the shape of the face, treating dental problems also has a cosmetic perspective. Cosmetic family dentistry is quickly gaining popularity as people are realizing the importance of having shapely teeth. Cosmetic dentistry services also take care of other abnormalities, including deformed teeth, gum problems, dental implant dentures and cosmetic dental bonding.
Cosmetic Tooth Bonding
Cosmetic dental bonding is the procedure using which tooth-colored resin material is applied using adhesives and a high intensity curing light. This process is called tooth bonding because the materials are bonded to the tooth.
Tooth bonding usually has cosmetic applications and is used when there is discoloration or chipped tooth. This process corrects these types of irregularities and greatly enhances the shape of the teeth. Cosmetic tooth bonding is essentially a cosmetic dental surgery method.
Dental veneers
Teeth porcelain veneers (also called as dental porcelain laminates or just porcelain veneers) are wafer-thin shells that are custom made for each tooth shape. They are also tooth colored and cover the front surface of the teeth. The main purpose of dental veneers is improving appearance, and altering the shape of the teeth that were either malformed at birth or have lost shape due to accident/ aging. Best dentists recommend use of veneers that are bonded to the front of the teeth and change either one or many of their attributes including their color, shape, size or length.
Why porcelain veneer?
The dental veneers that are applied over the teeth are usually made of porcelain. There are many reasons why a porcelain veneer is preferred
- It resist stains better than other types of veneer
- It has the closest properties to natural teeth
- They are thinner and therefore fit easily
Dental implant dentures
Cosmetic dental treatment methods include an implant-supported denture that is a more modern form of the regular dentures that rests on the gums. The implant dentures are supported by and attached to implants. This method is usually used when there are no teeth in the jaw but enough bone to support implants. The denture and implants each have attachments that snap into position when the implant is set.
Implants dentures are designed for the lower jaw to help the set up become more stable. They can be fixed on both the upper and lower jaws, though. The implants are placed in the front of the jawbone to utilize the excess amount of bones there.
Family dental clinics usually offer various types of treatments that correct many different ailments and this includes dentures, implants, tooth bonding and dental veneers. Dr. Jerrold Goldsmith of Indy Family Dentist runs a family dental clinic and is hailed as the best cosmetic dentist who treats all teeth related problems.
