According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, an attractive smile can enhance career success. Some studies have even equated attractiveness with economic success. If you feel that your smile isn’t all that it could be, Dr. Yampolsky can help with amazing new advances in cosmetic care that can have you smiling like never before. In addition to an extensive menu of teeth whitening services, some of our cosmetic dental treatments include:
Often described as "instant orthodontics", porcelain veneers are life-like and beautiful. You can change the color, shape and size of your teeth by bonding thin layers of porcelain to them. This process can be likened to getting fake finger nails - - for your teeth. Porcelain veneers can help brighten front teeth and correct defects including:
Filling in the gaps between teeth, making crooked teeth appear straight or eliminating brown spots are a few uses of bonding. A tooth colored material is used to reshape your teeth in just one appointment. Dr. Yampolsky considers amalgam fillings obsolete, especially when safe, effective, lasting and cosmetically beautiful alternatives exist, such as composite resin fillings, porcelain or composite inlays, and other hybrid restorations. These fillings look like natural teeth and blend seamlessly with your own teeth. The bonding technique used to place them even strengthens your teeth.
Crowns or "caps" are used when a tooth is structurally weak and needs the strength of a full coverage restoration. Crowns can be all metal, such as gold; porcelain; or a combination of porcelain fused-to-metal. Inlays and Overlays are used as stronger alternatives to bonded fillings. Like crowns, they are made in a laboratory for a stronger, more durable filling, and are custom fitted to your teeth.
You can create a lasting beautiful smile by replacing one or more missing teeth with the latest reliable and aesthetic techniques. Once teeth are extracted, spaces between teeth allow the other teeth to shift, creating problems with the gums, bite and smile.
Here are the common methods to replace missing teeth.
Fixed bridges consist of a false tooth fused between two crowns and cemented to abutment teeth. They rest on the teeth adjacent to the space and require some drilling. Removable bridges can be taken out of the mouth. They fasten to natural teeth with special clasps or attachments. Gum Sculpting An attractive smile is characterized by healthy gums, symmetry and the proportion of gum/tooth showing when you smile. Gum sculpting helps create a harmonious smile.
Dr. Yampolsky may straighten teeth and correct your bite using Invisialign® invisible braces or work closely with your orthodontist to help straighten crowded or crooked teeth, align the teeth and fix spaces between the teeth. Straightening of your teeth will also reduce your risk for tooth wear, decay and gum disease.
