If you have several issues with the appearance of your teeth, more than just teeth stains, then we could still help. In fact, with cosmetic bonding and contouring, our team can provide improvement in only one sitting, taking on several issues at once. In today’s blog, your Astoria, NY, dentist talks about one-visit cosmetic treatments, which can provide immediate and major improvements for the overall beauty of your smile.
How We Restore Your Tooth
Dental bonding transforms your tooth. The procedure involves our team gently numbing the tooth and then cleaning it, while also etching the outer surface. Our team then preps the bonding material, the same composite resin we use for our lifelike fillings. This blend of glass-like and acrylic-like particles is then shaded to blend with the smile. Our team will shape and mold the tooth as the material cures under a light. Finally, we polish the tooth for a more lifelike appearance. The entire process only takes one visit!
The Cosmetic Benefits of Dental Bonding
With bonding, we can actually mask teeth stains too severe to be treated with whitening alone. We can also repair minor chips and even broken teeth, and lengthen teeth worn down by teeth grinding too. The procedure can fill the gaps between the teeth too, and help address misshapen teeth, all in only one visit. For some, this alone could provide a minor smile makeover.
Dental Contouring
But our team has another cosmetic treatment that can also be completed in only one visit. This is an even more conservative option, as we don’t even need to add new structure to the teeth. Instead, we will gently sand and buff the outer structure to correct cosmetic imperfections in one sitting. For example, we can dull teeth that are sharp, jagged, or pointed. We can smooth away the grooves, pits, and rough parts of the outer structure. The contouring process can also address overly large or misshapen teeth, and correct the appearance of a chipped tooth too. We can conduct this and bonding in the same visit too.
For a major smile makeover, we could combine these options with professional teeth whitening to ensure your results blend with your brightest smile, and we could even use veneers too. If you have any questions about how we improve the overall health and beauty of your smile with cosmetic treatments, then contact our team today to learn more and get started. You deserve a truly shining and beautiful smile, and we are ready to help!
