What are cosmetic dental services?
Cosmetic dentistry is professional oral care that helps improve the appearance of your teeth. While cosmetic dentistry is considered elective in most cases, there are restorative benefits to this professional service.
Types of Cosmetic Dental Services
Teeth whitening
Teeth whitening is one of the most common cosmetic dentistry procedures. This procedure can remove years of stains caused by food or drinks (including coffee, tea, and wine). In addition, medicines like antibiotics, antihistamines, and blood pressure medications can cause stains.
If you’re in the market for a whiter and brighter smile, ask us about the products we recommend at your next office visit! With advancements in technology, we offer teeth whitening products that are safe and effective, and best of all, they are take-home products for at-home use!
Veneers
Veneers are ceramic, custom-made caps that are placed over your natural teeth. Additionally, veneers can help improve the look of teeth including crooked teeth, chipped teeth, gaps, and damaged enamel. Dental veneers are natural-looking and are a good option for those for whom teeth whitening isn’t effective. Moreover, veneers are permanently applied and last between 10-15 years.
Cosmetic bonding with Bioclear
Cosmetic bonding is a similar procedure to veneers in which composite material adheres to the tooth. While bonding is a good cosmetic option, it has a shorter life span than veneers but is a more affordable option.
At Smiles by Design, Dr. Barker is certified in the Bioclear method. This method brings a modern approach to restorative dentistry while utilizing advancements in technology. Dr. Barker is your Wichita dentist certified in this progressive cosmetic bonding method.
Dental contouring
Dental contouring reshapes the teeth. Some instances in which contouring is a good option would be for a chipped or crack tooth. However, dental contouring is non-invasive and can quickly improve small flaws in your teeth.
