When it comes to NYC cosmetic dentistry, getting the same procedure as your friend or colleague is not like wearing the same outfit or getting the same hair color. A smile makeover is customized to every patient, so even if people you know are undergoing the same treatments, working with an experienced cosmetic dentist ensures that you all come out looking uniquely like yourself. Here are just three of the most common cosmetic dentistry treatments.
Minimal Prep Veneers
Patients are flocking to NYC cosmetic dentists who offer the minimally invasive smile makeover option known as minimal prep veneers or prepless veneers. Unlike conventional veneers which require the removal of tooth enamel to make room for the porcelain shields, minimal prep veneers live up to their name – they don’t require any major change to your natural teeth other than gentle cleaning and sanding.
Anyone who has ever dragged their feet about a smile makeover with veneers because they feared a major alteration to their teeth no longer needs to worry. Through minimal prep veneers, your smile can become bigger, brighter, whiter, and completely flawless. Using four to 10 porcelain shields, each one personalized in color, size, shape, and length, teeth are rebuilt into a stunning, natural smile.
This is the smile that many people covet, the smile of celebs and politicians and talking heads. They weren’t born with amazing DNA – they chose the right cosmetic dentist to recreate their teeth.
Porcelain Crowns
Porcelain crowns are often underestimated as a transformative dental procedure, but these small caps have power. If you have an unsightly tooth that is stained or short, if you have a crooked or gapped tooth, if you have a tooth that stands out from the rest of your teeth in any kind of bad way, a customized crown can cover up everything you dislike.
- Crowns are color matched to natural tooth enamel, so they blend in with the rest of your smile.
- They can be used to correct teeth cosmetically as well as restoratively.
- Any deteriorating teeth or teeth that are falling apart because of an old restoration can find new life thanks to a hearty, strong porcelain crown.
Full-Mouth Reconstruction
Some people have endured years of unhealthy, painful, unsightly teeth. There is no need to live like this. It might feel like there are too many problems going on in your mouth to attempt to fix them, but your NYC dentist can develop a full-mouth reconstruction plan that transforms your worn-out smile.
These customized procedures are performed as needed and can include:
- Restorative dentistry (dental implants, dental crowns, tooth-colored fillings, etc.)
- Cosmetic dentistry (veneers, teeth whitening, etc.)
- Specialized dental care (TMJ therapy, gum disease treatment, root canal therapy, etc.)
Together, these procedures develop a smile that not only looks amazing but works properly and feels great too.
