What Is Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic Dentistry is all about the outward look of your teeth (your smile). If your teeth are stained, discolored, worn, chipped, broken, misaligned, misshapen, or have gaps between them. Then cosmetic dentistry can help you by giving you a better smile.

A “smile makeover” improves the appearance of your smile through one or more cosmetic dentistry procedures. Which can consist of; dental crowns, dental veneers, dental implants, braces & teeth whitening. There are more but these would be the main ones we deal with on a day-by-day basis.

If you would like more information on each of these we have q quick blurb below but also have dedicated pages of text just check our dental service tab and drop-down menu.

Types of Cosmetic Dentistry

teeth whitening Goolwa

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening can be one of the simplest and least expensive ways to improve your smile. Teeth can be bleached or you can buy a mold and gels from your dentist to bleach your teeth at home. There are also whitening products available over the counter at retail stores for convenient at-home whitening: whitening toothpastes, rinses, and whitestrips.

Dental Veneers Goolwa

Dental Veneers

Dental veneers are wafer-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored porcelain or resin that cover the front surface of the teeth. After removing about a half-millimeter of enamel from the tooth surface, these thin shells are bonded (cemented) to the front of the teeth, changing their color, shape, size, or length. Veneers are often called “Hollywood teeth.” Living up to that name, this process can cost up to $500-$1,300 per tooth.

Dental Bridges

A bridge is made of crowns for the teeth on either side of a gap with false teeth in between. A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth. Dental braces can straighten crooked or misaligned teeth and works by applying continuous pressure over a period of time to slowly move teeth in a specific direction.

dental implants Goolwa

Dental Implants

Dental implants are titanium replacement tooth roots inserted into the bone socket of the missing tooth. As the jawbone heals, it grows around the implanted metal post, anchoring it securely in the jaw and providing a foundation for a replacement tooth.

dental crowns Goolwa

Dental Crowns

A dental crown, also called a cap, fits over and replaces the entire decayed or damaged tooth above the gum line, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns keep a weak tooth from breaking or hold a cracked tooth together; they can be used cosmetically to cover misshapen or severely discolored teeth. Crowns can be made from metal, porcelain-fused-to-metal, resin, or ceramic.

inlays & onlays detnal treatment in Goolwa

Inlays and Onlays

Inlays and onlays, also called indirect fillings, are made from gold, porcelain, or composite materials and fill decayed or damaged teeth. Dental fillings are molded into place during an office visit; however, inlays and onlays are created in a dental laboratory and bonded into place by your dentist. The filling is called an “inlay” when the material is bonded within the center of a tooth; it is called an “onlay” when the filling includes one or more points of the tooth or covers the biting surface. Inlays and onlays preserve as much healthy tooth as possible and are an alternative to crowns.

Dental Bonding

In dental bonding, a tooth-colored, putty-like resin, which is a durable plastic material, is applied to the tooth and hardened with an ultraviolet or laser light, bonding the material to the tooth. Your dentist then trims, shapes, and polishes it. Bonding can repair decayed, chipped, cracked, or misshapen teeth; it is also a good cosmetic alternative to, or replacement for, amalgam or silver fillings. Bonding takes about 30 to 60 minutes.

Invisalign treatment goolwa

Invisalign

Invisalign is a type of orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth. The aligners are custom-made for each patient using 3D imaging technology, and they are worn for 20-22 hours per day, only to be removed when eating or drinking.

Went here for the first time today and they did an amazing job of keeping me comfortable while they worked hard to extract a very difficult tooth. The bill was very reaosnable too. This was a difficult job that took over an hour and they only charged me about half of what I paid at another dentist for a very simple extraction that took less than a minute.

Excellent dental surgery from reception to dental nurses to dentist. Austin is the best dentist I've ever seen or had treatment with. He is patient centred. He listens, takes his time, explains everything. Two extractions with no pain. I would absolutely recommend him.
