Are you unhappy with how your front teeth look?  You are not the only one.  In fact, according to a study presented by the American Association of Orthodontists and Wakefield Research, approximately one-third of Americans dislike their smile. If you are among them, we invite you to visit us. Dr. Makadia is an experienced, skilled cosmetic dentist who has already helped countless patients to improve the appearance of their front teeth — he is ready to assist you as well! Read on below to learn more about how we can transform your smile.

Getting Started with Cosmetic Dentistry

During your consultation, Dr. Makadia will take some time to speak with you so he can understand exactly what you dislike about your front teeth and what you hope to achieve via treatment. Here are some examples of issues that our team is often able to address:

  • Discoloration
  • Overly yellow teeth
  • Missing front teeth
  • Crooked teeth
  • Gaps between the teeth
  • Teeth that are too long or too short
  • Broken or chipped teeth
  • And more!

Once we understand your needs, we will recommend a treatment plan. That is exactly what we did for the patient whose teeth you see at the beginning of this blog post. This young woman came to us wanting to adjust the look of her front teeth because she felt it would be important for her career advancement. With veneers and Lumineers, we were able to hide the details that she was insecure about and provide her with a confident smile that will be an asset as she strives to move her career forward.

Treatment Options

Here are some restorative and cosmetic treatments that may be able to help you achieve your aesthetic goals for your front teeth:

  • Veneers or Lumineers. These are ultra-thin pieces of porcelain that look virtually identical to natural tooth enamel. They can hide numerous imperfections.
  • Dental bonding. This quick and comfortable service reshapes teeth with the help of a tooth-colored resin.
  • Teeth whitening. With a potent whitening solution, we can address even deep-set stains.
  • All-ceramic dental restorations. If you have old, unsightly bridges or crowns on your front teeth, with can replace them with a more attractive alternative.
  • Gum recontouring. If your teeth appear to be too short due to excessive gum tissue, this minimally invasive surgery may be just what you need.
  • Dental implants. These are the most natural-looking way to replace teeth in any part of a patient’s smile.
