Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
If you are less than happy with your smile, chances are you may have thought of having one or more cosmetic dentistry treatments. You may also wonder if the benefits of cosmetic dentistry are actually worth the money – after all, you know that cosmetic dentistry is not going to be covered by your dental insurer.
At Maniscalco Cosmetic and General Dentistry, we are not going to tell you what to do, but we do have to say that we believe cosmetic dentistry is well worth the cost. The benefits of cosmetic dentistry are essentially that they will give you the smile you want, but some treatments actually go beyond that, and can improve the functionality of your mouth.
Your Options
The benefits of cosmetic dentistry will largely depend on the results you want to achieve. Perhaps you have gapped teeth, or discoloration, or a “gummy” appearance to your smile. There are numerous treatments available.
Often, all you really need to reap the benefits of cosmetic dentistry is a whitening treatment. You can choose in-office whitening, take-home treatments, or a combination of the two.
Another option is porcelain veneers, which are custom-made restorations that fit over the front of your teeth. Veneers can hide discoloration, chipping, gaps, and even change the shape of your teeth.
Dental bonding using composite resin can also hide a multitude of flaws.
You can consider any or all of these treatments, plus others to achieve a full smile makeover. If you think that you would like to improve your smile, Dr. Maniscalco can consult with you and work with you to devise a course of treatment that will give you the smile you want. Multiple treatments may take some time to complete, but the end result will be well worth it.
