Health Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
When most people think of cosmetic dentistry, they imagine a stunning smile and brilliantly white teeth. But did you know that cosmetic dental treatments can improve your overall oral health and well-being, too? It’s true! Aesthetic oral solutions not only enhance your appearance but can also contribute to a healthier mouth. At Coronado Classic Dentistry, our skilled cosmetic dentist, Jason Keckley, DMD, and experienced dental team offer advanced treatments to help patients look and feel their best. Below, Dr. Keckley highlights two popular solutions designed to enhance your smile and support optimal oral systemic health.
Porcelain Veneers
Custom-crafted from durable, tooth-colored materials, porcelain veneers are designed to cover the front surface of your teeth to conceal a variety of aesthetic concerns, such as chips, cracks, and discoloration. Although dental veneers rely on a thin, porcelain shell, they are a powerful solution to protect natural teeth from everyday wear and tear and sensitivity. Veneers can also help to close small gaps and correct mild bite issues, making it easier to chew a variety of nutrient-rich foods and speak comfortably.
Smile Makeovers
During the smile makeover process, teeth and gums are evaluated to develop a customized treatment plan to completely transform your smile. Each smile makeover can combine several dental solutions—such as porcelain veneers, orthodontics, dental implants, teeth whitening, bonding, and more—that are intended to correct, conceal, and/or treat various dental concerns. Moreover, as part of a smile makeover, these solutions can benefit overall health. For example, correcting misaligned teeth with an orthodontic procedure can reduce the risk of gum disease, cavities, and jaw pain. Additionally, restoring or replacing worn or missing teeth can enhance bite function and improve digestion and speech.
Cosmetic dentistry is a multifaceted solution that can help create a strong, functional, and radiant smile to support your overall health. Treatments like porcelain veneers and full smile makeovers can protect your teeth, enhance oral function, and even prevent future dental problems, especially when performed by a qualified cosmetic dentist, such as Dr. Keckley.
