What is cosmetic dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry consists of various procedures that Dr. Hakim performs to enhance your smile. With the right combination of treatments, cosmetic dentistry can enhance your appearance, giving you a radiant smile and boosting your self-confidence.

Before receiving cosmetic dentistry, you may need to undergo treatments for oral health issues such as infections, gum disease, and cavities. Miracle Dental provides general dentistry services to ensure your mouth is healthy before cosmetic dentistry procedures can begin.

What kinds of issues can cosmetic dentistry resolve?

Cosmetic dentistry can address all sorts of flaws and blemishes, including restoring teeth that are:

• Missing
• Discolored
• Chipped
• Cracked
• Crooked
• Worn
• Filled

Dr. Hakim examines your teeth in detail before suggesting the cosmetic dentistry treatments that would suit you best. After discussing your goals, Dr. Hakim will utilize digital smile design technology to ensure the most optimal esthetic outcomes.

What kind of cosmetic dentistry might be in my plan?

Depending on your needs, the cosmetic dentistry services featured in your plan could include:

Teeth whitening

Teeth whitening eliminates natural yellowing of the teeth that occurs as you age as well as stains from substances like tobacco, coffee, tea, and red wine.

Dental bonding

Dental bonding can resolve a variety of flaws, such as chips in your teeth and gaps between them. The tooth-colored material used in bonding can also improve the shape of your teeth.

Veneers

Veneers are very thin layers of porcelain or bonded composite that fit over the visible part of your tooth. Veneers are an excellent choice if you wish for better-looking teeth but don’t want to undergo invasive cosmetic dentistry work.

Crowns and bridges

Crowns are similar to “caps” that fit over a damaged or decayed natural tooth. They are also used to restore dental implants. Bridges, in contrast, are a collection of several connected crowns that can replace a missing tooth.

Dental implants

Dental implants are the most long-lasting replacement option for one or more missing teeth. They consist of a post that is placed within the jawbone to support and fuses in place. Prosthetics can include crowns, bridges, or dentures.
