What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on enhancing the appearance of your teeth. While regular dental care keeps your teeth healthy, cosmetic dentistry improves the appearance of your smile. These treatments can address various cosmetic issues, including stained or yellow teeth, chipped or cracked teeth, gaps between teeth, crooked teeth, misshapen teeth, and worn-down or old teeth.
At Hardin Cosmetic and Family Dentistry, we believe everyone deserves a smile they love. Our cosmetic treatments are designed to enhance your natural beauty while maintaining the health of your teeth and gums.
In the past decade there has been a dramatic interest in cosmetic dentistry. We all realize that having a healthy, bright, beautiful smile enhances our appearance and allows us to smile with confidence. Thanks to the advances in modern cosmetic dentistry, we are able to improve our teeth and smiles with quick, painless and surprisingly affordable treatments. Cosmetic dental treatments can:
- Change the size, shape, and alignment of certain teeth.
- Fill in unattractive spaces between teeth.
- Improve or correct bites.
- Lighten or brighten the color of teeth.
- Repair decayed, broken, cracked, or chipped teeth.
- Replace old, unattractive dental treatments.
Cosmetic Dental Services at Hardin Cosmetic and Family Dentistry
Dr. Hardin offers a personalized approach to your aesthetic goals. He takes the time to meet with you and understand your needs before recommending treatment.
A smile makeover can include one or several treatment options, with the goal of achieving a beautiful and healthy smile.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin shells that cover the front of your teeth. They’re custom-made to match your natural teeth and can transform your smile in just two visits.
Dental veneers can fix many problems at once, including stains, chips, gaps, and minor misalignment. They’re durable and can last for many years with proper care.
Clear Aligners
Want straighter teeth without metal braces? Clear aligners are nearly invisible trays that gradually move your teeth into the proper position for a healthy bite.
Clear aligners are comfortable, convenient, and much less noticeable than traditional braces. Depending on your needs, most treatments take 6-18 months.
Dental Bonding
Tooth bonding is a quick and affordable way to repair minor tooth imperfections. We apply a tooth-colored resin material to your tooth, shape it, and harden it with a special light.
Dental bonding fixes chips, cracks, and small gaps. It can cover stains that whitening can’t remove and reshape uneven teeth. The procedure is usually completed in one visit and preserves more of your natural tooth than veneers. Bonding typically lasts 3-10 years before needing touch-ups or replacement.
Teeth Whitening
Our professional teeth whitening treatments can brighten your smile by several shades in just one visit. We offer both in-office and take-home whitening options. Professional whitening is safer and more effective than over-the-counter products, with longer-lasting results.
What to Expect During Your Cosmetic Dentistry Journey
Your journey to a new smile begins with a consultation where Dr. Hardin discuss your smile goals and examine your teeth and gums. He’ll take photos and possibly X-rays, recommend treatment options, and answer all your questions. Dr. Hardin will create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs, timeline, and budget.
Depending on which treatments are involved, your process may include preparing your teeth for veneers or bonding, taking impressions or digital scans, fitting temporary restorations if needed, placing and adjusting your final restorations, and follow-up visits to ensure everything is perfect. Our team will explain each step and make sure you’re comfortable throughout the process.
We’ll provide detailed instructions on how to care for your new smile, including proper brushing and flossing techniques, foods and drinks to avoid, how to protect your investment, and a regular check-up schedule. With proper care, your cosmetic dental work can look beautiful for many years.
