Looking for a perfect smile or those perfectly shining teeth? Then cosmetic dentistry has the perfect solution for you. Cosmetic dentistry is a comprehensive oral care that combines art and science to optimally improve dental health, aesthetics and function. Visit a cosmetic dentist for the various options available: contouring, whitening, enamel shaping, bonding, dental bridges, veneers and gum lift.

Tooth contouring and reshaping is an instant dental curative procedure to correct curved teeth, crooked teeth, chipped teeth, cracked teeth or even overlapping teeth in just one sitting. Usually procedure entails altering the length, shape, or position of the teeth for giving a more attractive dental look and full bright smile. A beautiful smile can be created by a cosmetic dentist through a few millimeters of reduction and a few millimeters of tooth-colored lamination. The cosmetic dentist extracts a small part of the tooth and adds a bit of tooth-colored laminate to achieve instant results.

Whitening, or "teeth bleaching", is the most common cosmetic dental procedure. While many whitening options are now available, a cosmetic dentist-supervised treatment remains the recommended procedure for lightening discolored teeth.

Enamel shaping removes parts of the contouring enamel to improve the appearance of the tooth. It may be used to correct a very small chip.

Bonding is a process in which an enamel-like dental composite material is applied to a tooth's surface, sculpted into shape, hardened and then polished.

Dental bridge treatment is a procedure for cosmetic dental cure in which a modified false tooth is implanted in place of a missing tooth in order to shape your teeth for an attractive smile. Dental bridges fill the spaces where teeth are missing. Procedure of dental bridges is for those who have lost natural teeth due to germ or virus and tooth decays that not only affects on their smile but it also create difficulties in chewing, eating and speaking clearly. If there is not additional support then some facial muscles could sag, resulting in an older appearance of the mouth.

Veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made laminates that are bonded directly to the teeth. They are an option for closing gaps or disguising discolored teeth that do not respond well to whitening procedures. Today a number of options are made available, one of them being "Lumineers", which are contact-lens-thin and provides amazing results.

Gum lift is a cosmetic dental procedure that raises and sculpts the gum line. The procedure involves reshaping the tissue and/or underlying bones to create the appearance of longer or more symmetrical teeth.
