What cosmetic dentistry procedures can I use to enhance my smile?
Cosmetic density focuses on enhancing the look of the smile with a combination of aesthetic procedures. Patients who visit Dr. Boris Kaltchev of BK Dental in Wood Dale and Evanston, Illinois, are often curious about what cosmetic dentistry can do to help achieve a more attractive smile. Below are just a few of the aesthetic dentistry procedures available at our office for you to choose from:
- Dental bonding/resin. Using composite resin bonding, the surface of teeth can be restored or improved in appearance. This cosmetic treatment addresses minor imperfections, such as chips and cracks, gaps between teeth, discoloration, and size discrepancies. It involves our dentist applying a tooth-colored composite resin material to the specific area and shaping it to blend with the surrounding teeth
- Tooth-colored fillings. Dr. Boris Kaltchev can use tooth-colored fillings to restore the affected teeth when tooth decay occurs. Unlike conventional silver amalgam fillings, which are easily noticeable in the mouth, tooth-colored fillings are made of composite resin material which can be matched to the color of one’s natural teeth
- Zirconia and porcelain dental crowns. Dental crowns are described as tooth-shaped caps bonded over damaged or decayed teeth to restore their function and appearance. At BK Dental, we offer zirconia and porcelain crowns that are strong, durable, and indistinguishable from natural teeth
- Clear aligner therapy. Patients can use clear trays over the dental arch to realign their teeth without traditional metal braces. This orthodontic treatment is discreet and removable, allowing for easier maintenance of oral hygiene
- Porcelain veneers. Covering imperfections is simple with porcelain veneers. These thin facings are customized and bonded to the front of a tooth to change its look and improve the overall appearance of the smile
- Smile makeover. Combining several aesthetic dentistry procedures to transform the smile completely is known as a smile makeover and can be done over time or with a single extended appointment based on the patient’s unique needs
