Dr. John Cherry | Dentist in Brandon, Florida
Are you looking for information about how your dentist in Brandon, Florida, can improve the appearance of your smile? We all know a smile creates a lasting impression on a first meeting. Today many people, young and old, are looking for ways to achieve that beautiful and flawless smile we all see gracing social media pages.
Nowadays, dentistry finds a way to perform tooth restorations that are also aesthetically pleasing. With the modern materials available, any lost, decayed, or degraded teeth can be repaired and restored to look natural and, most importantly, be highly functional.
The following four cosmetic dentistry services are available to enhance your smile:
Teeth whitening
One of the people’s most common concerns about their smile is its color. Teeth whitening is a fast way to improve the teeth’ appearance by eliminating their surface stains and discoloration. It is always the quickest way to improve your smile.
Although anyone can procure at-home kits from local stores and online, they are much less effective and durable than in-office teeth whitening treatments. The bleach concentration is often lower, and the results are not always noticeable. Dr. John Cherry can evaluate you to determine the best approach for whitening your unique teeth.
Dental bonding
Dental bonding is highly versatile, as it can treat chipped or decayed teeth, alter the shape of the teeth or close unwanted spaces. A solid plastic resin that matches the color of your teeth is applied to the tooth, shaped, and cured using a special light. The result is a highly natural-looking smile. The significant part is that the treatment plan is quick and painless and only lasts 30 to 60 minutes per tooth.
Enamel shaping
Enamel shaping is similar to dental bonding and can correct small chips, unevenly shaped teeth, and irregular enamel. In contrast to dental bonding, however, enamel shaping is permanent since the process requires shaving or stripping the tooth to remove part of the enamel’s structure.
Your dentist can provide cosmetic dental bonding and enamel shaping independently or together. The best bet is to meet with Dr. Cherry to see what he highly recommends.
Dental veneers
Dental veneers are also known as porcelain veneers or dental laminates. They are the most popular cosmetic treatment choice to correct misaligned, chipped, or unevenly shaped teeth.
Veneers are wafer-thin, custom-made shells from resin or porcelain placed on the tooth’s front surface. They are applied with a bonding material and customized to match your other teeth perfectly. Porcelain is the highest quality as it is stronger and more resistant to stains than resin and gives off an excellent luster like natural teeth.
