A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO COSMETIC DENTISTRY

In today’s world of social media and online presence, feeling confident about your smile has never been more important. Many people think that cosmetic dentistry is only for the rich or famous; however, today, that is no longer the case.

Cosmetic dentistry offers affordable options for all kinds of smile imperfections. So whether you’re looking for a brighter smile or a complete smile overhaul, we have solutions for you. Here’s what you can expect from cosmetic dentistry in Sartell, MN.

Tooth-Colored Fillings

If you’re dealing with tooth decay or cavities, you may notice unappealing dark spots on your teeth. Today’s dental fillings are tooth-colored, and they eliminate tooth decay and cavities without changing the appearance of your smile with unsightly metal fillings.

Tooth-colored fillings bond directly to your tooth, and because they don’t react to temperature changes in your mouth like metal fillings do, you won’t have to worry about durability.

Dental Crowns

If your tooth is broken or decayed past the point of what a filling can repair, you may need a dental crown. This restoration is typically made of ceramic porcelain customized to flawlessly match your teeth and complement your smile.

A crown covers your remaining tooth structure all the way to the gumline and essentially replaces your damaged tooth while protecting the integrity of your natural root. Porcelain crowns can cover broken, chipped, or stained teeth and are often part of a smile makeover treatment plan.

Porcelain Veneers

If you’ve ever thought about changing the size, shade, or shape of your teeth, porcelain veneers give you the power to create the smile you’ve always wanted. This thin sheath of porcelain fits over your tooth to create a more symmetrical appearance and also cover these imperfections:

  • Gaps between teeth
  • Oddly shaped or sized teeth
  • Tooth staining or discoloration
  • Broken, fractured, or chipped teeth

If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your smile, we invite you to schedule an evaluation with one of our dentists in Sartell today. Call (320) 331-3000 to make your appointment.
