Make an Appointment for Your Smile!
Cosmetic dentistry is a series of procedures intended to improve the beauty of your smile. It seeks to achieve symmetry and balance to the anterior teeth and how they look.
Cosmetic dentistry procedures are indicated in cases where there are evident defects or asymmetries in the position, size, shape or color of your anterior teeth, caused by smoking, worn or stained restorations, decay, severe wear or fractures.
It is also used in cases when existing restorations are not matching the color or the shape of your natural teeth and need to be replaced to achieve biomimetics. Biomimetics is the concept under which all the restorations in your mouth match the natural color, shape and function of your natural teeth, in accordance to the shape of your face and even the colour of your skin.

Natural, Not Perfect
Little details make the difference!. Cosmetic dentistry is not about a perfect standard smile, and it is not only reserved for the rich and famous. It is about giving back, or highlighting the natural beauty of your teeth. Therefore, its main focus is to offer evident improvements to your natural teeth or to previous worn or stained restorations, being as conservative as possible.
The main treatments available within the range of cosmetic dentistry are
Cleannings
Dental aesthetics cannot be done without cleaning your teeth first and achieving gum health. It is key that you brush and floss your teeth at least twice a day to guarantee better and long-lasting results.
Orthodontics (Braces)
Through which an ideal alignment of your teeth is achieved. It also helps in improving occlusion defects which are impacting the function and aesthetics of your mouth. Therefore, your results will be maintained for life. For more information about orthodontics click here.
Periodontics (Gum Surgery)
In some cases, teeth look smaller that they really are, or its shape is not symmetrical. This is due to the gum covering a larger portion of the teeth surface. Therefore, a small non-invasive surgery can be performed on your gums to improve its shape and enhance the size and shape of your anterior teeth.
Teeth Whitening
This procedure is designed to brighten your teeth and give them a whiter appearance without having to modify the structure of your enamel. It is the most conservative way of achieving a whiter and brighter smile. For more information about teeth whitening click here.
Dental Jewelry
Aesthetics is a subjective concept, and some extra attachments can be used to highlight a particular feature of your smile. Nowadays, is very common to find patients asking for gold restorations to fill gaps between their teeth. This fillings can divert the attention from other little imperfections.
Veneers
Nowadays, it is not possible to talk about cosmetic dentistry without mentioning the concept of dental veneers. However, cosmetic dentistry, as explained above is not only limited to the placement of false teeth or replacing the natural structure of the teeth for artificial materials. Placing dental veneers in your mouth without an adequate planning would result in a very unnatural look of your teeth and therefore, a notorious false smile.
Although dental veneers are an excellent tool in cosmetic dentistry, these are reserved for specific cases where there are severe discolorations, wear or shape and size discrepancies.
