Everyone wants a beautiful smile; when we see celebrities with perfectly straight, white teeth, it’s often difficult to imagine our smiles looking that good.

When my patients come to me with concerns about their smile’s appearance, I often have to convince them that they can improve the aesthetics of their smile in less time than they think. Today’s trends in cosmetic dentistry offer more options than ever before.

Today’s Cosmetic Dentistry Trends

At Justison and Gladnick Family Dentistry, we strive to combine optimal oral health with aesthetic beauty. When you visit our dental office for a cosmetic consultation, I will create a treatment plan that combines one or more of the following trends:

  • Porcelain crowns—If your teeth are damaged or worn, I can place porcelain crowns on top of your natural teeth to restore your smile while maintaining your tooth’s structural integrity.
  • Dental implants—If you are missing one or more teeth, I might recommend dental implants. They offer the best stability and function.
  • Teeth whitening—If your teeth are stained or discolored, I can create custom whitening trays for you to wear, making your teeth several shades whiter.
  • Tooth-colored fillings—If you have old amalgam fillings, I can replace them with tooth-colored composite material for a seamless look.
  • Dental bonding—For a fast and easy cosmetic fix, I can add composite resin to your teeth to improve their shape and color.
  • Veneers—If you want a more permanent cosmetic option, I can bond porcelain veneers to the front sides of your teeth, giving you the smile you’ve always wanted.
  • Invisalign® clear aligners—If your teeth need to be straightened, I can fit you for Invisalign clear aligners, a discreet, comfortable way to shift your teeth into the proper position.
