FAQ
What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is all about enhancing the appearance of your smile. While general dentistry focuses on oral health, cosmetic treatments aim to improve the look of your teeth—whether through whitening, reshaping, or replacing missing teeth. If you’re looking to transform your smile, whether subtly or significantly, cosmetic dentistry offers the right solutions.
Will cosmetic dental treatments look natural?
Yes! Thanks to modern techniques and advanced materials, cosmetic dentistry provides results that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. From subtle touch-ups to complete smile makeovers, today’s procedures are designed to look and feel just like the real thing—so no one will know you’ve had dental work done.
How many teeth can dental implants replace?
Dental implants can replace a single tooth, several teeth, or even a full arch. You don’t need an implant for every missing tooth—just two implants can support a lower denture, while four may be enough for a full set of fixed teeth.
Is dental implant surgery painful?
Most patients find the procedure surprisingly comfortable. Any soreness afterward is typically mild and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and ice.
Are dental implants expensive?
While dental implants may have a higher upfront cost, they are a long-term solution that rarely need replacement—making them a cost-effective investment in your smile and health.
How do I care for dental implants?
Just like natural teeth! Daily brushing, flossing, and regular dental checkups are essential. With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
Can my body reject a dental implant?
Rejection is extremely rare. Dental implants are made of biocompatible titanium, and they typically integrate well with the jawbone. Issues usually arise only from poor oral hygiene or early biting pressure.
Am I a good candidate for dental implants?
Most people are! A full exam and X-rays are needed to confirm. Schedule a consultation to explore your options and see if implants are right for you.
