Cosmetic dentistry is a section of professional oral care that can help people who are not satisfied with their smiles. It improves the appearance of a person’s mouth, gums, teeth, and overall smile in numerous ways.
It is not uncommon to look at one’s smile in the mirror or someone else’s smile and think some things off, but I don’t know what it is. Maybe you think you know. It’s good for each of us to feel good about sharing our smile with the world. It’s good for us to smile.
If you don’t like what you see, and wish to “feel” better, and have confidence in your smile, It’s always best to discuss this with a dentist clearly so you both know what you want to be changed. In other words, you and your dentist must have a really thorough understanding of what you don’t like.
Often the rest is easy. Going from Point A (where you are) to Point B (where you want to go).
There may be several ways to get there, but there will always be SOME way.
In Biological Dentistry, the first thing to consider is excellent support. We are talking, bone and gum tissue, then how the teeth and upper and jaws relate to each other and tooth position. If all of these are ideal, then tooth color and shape. Of course, all of these have the face as a setting. Factors like tooth position, shape, and shade are interdependent on the face itself. It’s important to have all these factors taken into account when thinking about the esthetics of your smile.
Dr. Copeland believes that when the teeth are healthy, in their most stable, functional positions, they are also naturally pleasing in appearance. As humans, we appreciate proportion, healthy tissue colors, and even function when we see it. One doesn’t have to be a dentist to appreciate a healthy, happy mouth any more than someone needs to be a botanist to appreciate a robust, healthy plant.
In a nutshell, many factors need to be taken into account. A clear understanding of what is desired must be had by both the dentist and the patient. The steps, whether they be two or more need to be “stepped” out for health, and the appearance follows naturally.
There are many procedures that a cosmetic dentist can offer to enhance the health and appearance of your smile. These include but are not limited to the following:
