    What procedures are used in a typical smile makeover?

    There are many cosmetic dentistry procedures that we can use including teeth whitening, bonding, dental veneers, dental crowns, and dental implants, among others.

    Teeth Whitening

    Yellow and stained teeth may be a sign of age; teeth are typically whiter the younger you are. Teeth can also become discolored and severely stained by eating foods that are artificially colored, drinking coffee, tea, wine and smoking. These habits can negatively impact the appearance and health of your smile. As a result, patients throughout Miami choose to have their stains removed through teeth whitening procedures.

    There are several ways to whiten your teeth. An in-office whitening procedure can whiten your teeth by up to eight shades in a single office visit and can do so without causing any discomfort. For those that would prefer to whiten their teeth on their own schedule, an at-home treatment may be a better option for them. In this scenario, impressions are taken of the teeth and customized Teeth Whitening trays are created in a dental lab. Because they are made to fit perfectly, the whitening solution stays in place and teeth feel comfortable. Providing you with a home whitening option allows you to conveniently improve the appearance of your smile in a manner that suits your schedule. To learn more, call 3058580505 to schedule a consultation.

    Dental Veneers

    Patients with severely stained or damaged teeth can have dental veneers placed to improve their smile. A dentist trained in placing porcelain veneers can help to create natural looking restorations that can transform ordinary smiles into something truly stunning. In fact, many Hollywood stars have used veneers to improve their smile as most people have an imperfection or two. When you schedule an appointment with our Miami dentist office, we will examine your teeth to determine if veneers are the best option for achieving the goals you have for your smile. They can be used to close gaps between teeth, make teeth even in length, cover dark stains, and restore teeth that have been cracked or chipped. Some crooked teeth can even appear straighter using veneers.

    When completing a smile makeover, some patients use dental veneers to make their teeth appear larger. Some adults, for example, have teeth that appear too small for their smile and their frame. In this case, veneers can be used to elongate the teeth and make them appear more natural. Patients throughout the local area enjoy the results that they receive by using veneers.

    Dental Crowns

    When teeth are more severely damaged or broken, a dental crown is often a better solution for transforming their appearance and functionality. A crown can be made in an all-ceramic or all-porcelain material that surrounds the tooth entirely. The use of a full crown not only improves the appearance of a badly damaged tooth but it signficantly increases its strength. In the past, people may have had dental crowns that were made out of metal. These are functional, but can be unattractive, making it more challenging to achieve a highly esthetic and natural looking smile. Replacing metal crowns with ceramic ones enables the use of more advanced technology and materials designed to create completely natural and beautiful smiles. The use of these newer materials and technology allows the dentist to replace outdated metal crowns easily and predictably.

    Dental crowns and dental veneers can be used to accomplish similar esthetic enhancements.They can alter length, form and contour, close gaps, cover stains, and restore cracked or chipped teeth. The major difference lies in the fact that a dental crown surrounds the entire tooth, providing greater stability and strength to the tooth.

    Dental Implants

    Our patients trust our team at Dr. Rita The Smile Designer to replace their missing teeth in a ways that look and feel completely natural. Dental implants are an excellent option for restoring missing teeth, enabling the patients to enjoy their favorite activities and foods without worry ing about the restorations coming loose or falling out. The use of removable restorations, such as partial or full dentures, may increase the risk of the patients experiencing loosening or dislodgement of the appliance while speaking or eating. Dental implants provide the patient with predictable and long lasting peace of mind. Dental implant restorations mimic the natural dentition's function, appearance, and form in a very natural and secure manner. The patients often cannot discern the difference between these and their natural teeth.

    In this procedure, a metal post is implanted under the gums and secured to the jawbone. Over several months, the bone and metal will fuse together in order to create a synthetic root system that is just as strong as a natural root . Once healed, a new tooth form is secured to the metal post to complete a beautiful and natural smile. This procedure is commonly used in smile makeovers because it allows us to replace missing teeth predictably and securely.

    Dental implants may also be used in conjunction with orthodontics as part of a smile make over. Learning how this may benefit you provides yet more options on how to create a beautiful, healthy, and long lasting smile.
