What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

July 7, 2023

A beautiful smile not only looks great; it also can boost your confidence and overall self-esteem! While traditional dentistry focuses primarily on oral health, the goal of cosmetic dentistry is to improve or enhance the appearance of your smile.

Keep reading to learn more about cosmetic dentistry and the options available at Merry Dental!

Whitening with Zoom Whitening System

If your smile is less bright than you would like it to be, teeth whitening can remove stains and discoloration from your teeth, resulting in a whiter smile. At Merry Dental, we offer our patients whitening with the Zoom Whitening System.

The Zoom Whitening System utilizes a special hydrogen peroxide-based gel that is applied to the teeth. This gel is activated by a specially designed light that helps to break down stains and discoloration on the tooth enamel. 

The combination of the gel and light works together to remove deep stains and reveal a whiter, more vibrant smile. We offer two types of Zoom whitening: in-office and at-home. 

In-office whitening is done in our office, where we apply the whitening solution and use the Zoom light for optimal results. With at-home whitening, you’ll receive professional-strength gel and trays to use on your own schedule for about two weeks.

Both options deliver amazing results for a beautiful new smile!

Tooth Bonding

We can use tooth bonding to restore the appearance of teeth that are chipped, cracked, or discolored, as well as to close small gaps between teeth. Bonding involves the application of a tooth-colored resin material to the tooth surface, which is then shaped, hardened, and polished.

Tooth bonding is most effective on damage or discoloration on the front of a tooth or a small area of a tooth. The resin used in bonding can be matched to the true shade of your surrounding teeth, giving you back a beautiful, natural smile.

Tooth bonding is good cosmetic option if you only one or two of your teeth are affecting the overall appearance of your smile. It is an easy treatment that can be done right in our office, usually in a single appointment.

Dental Veneers

If you are looking for more of a complete smile makeover, dental veneers are the best way to transform your smile. They are a permanent solution that can give you renewed confidence in your beautiful smile.

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells typically made of porcelain or composite resin that are bonded to the front surface of the teeth. With proper care, veneers can last for years but can easily be replaced as needed.

If you are unhappy with the shape or placement of your natural teeth, dental veneers can dramatically improve the look of your smile. They can be custom designed to give you your ideal smile!

Invisalign

If you have crooked or misaligned teeth that are affecting the appearance of your smile, Invisalign aligners are a modern solution to straightening your teeth. Using custom-fitted aligners, Invisalign gently straightens teeth without the unsightly wires or discomfort of traditional metal braces.

Invisalign offers amazing straightening results with clear aligners that are practically unnoticeable when you are wearing them. Unlike braces, you can remove the aligners while you eat or drink, meaning that you can still eat and drink what you like during treatment.

Invisalign treatment can take less time to achieve a straighter smile than traditional braces. By following up treatment with the proper care, like wearing a retainer at night, your straighter smile will last and last.

If you are less-than-happy with the appearance of your smile, you may want to consider a cosmetic dentistry treatment. Cosmetic treatments like whitening, bonding, veneers, or Invisalign can give you a beautiful smile that will make you want to smile even more!

Merry Dental can help you have a smile you’ll love! Schedule a cosmetic dentistry consultation at Merry Dental in Billerica, MA, today!
