The Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry helps build your confidence and self-esteem, makes you look younger, and is surprisingly affordable. Many treatments are also minimally-invasive and don’t require you to spend much time in the dentist’s chair!

Am I a Good Candidate for Cosmetic Dentistry?

As long as your mouth is healthy and you don’t have major issues with your bite or jaw alignment, you’re likely a good candidate for cosmetic dentistry in East Amherst, NY from The Ivory Dental Co.

Common Cosmetic Dentistry Options

Dental Bonding & Enameloplasty

Dental bonding uses tooth-colored resin, which is applied directly to the tooth to rebuild and reshape it. Enameloplasty, sometimes called shaping and contouring, is often used along with it. This involves using instruments to gently shave away small imperfections from your teeth, like points or small chips, creating a more even smile.

Veneers

Veneers are a long-lasting and durable cosmetic option. They are small “shells” made to look like your teeth and are made of porcelain. They cover up the front surfaces of your teeth to completely restore your smile.

White Spot Removal

White spots may be genetic, or can indicate an early stage of demineralization or decay. They may also be caused by things like wearing braces. If you have white spots on your teeth after orthodontic treatment, or for any other reason, Dr. Sweeney can reverse them and restore your smile with ICON resin infiltration treatment or enamel microabrasion.

Teeth Whitening Options

We offer both in-office and take-home teeth whitening using advanced chemical whiteners.

Take-Home Whitening

In take-home whitening, Dr. Sweeney will build a set of whitening trays to fit your teeth perfectly. Then, you’ll follow her instructions and use the whitening products she provides to whiten your teeth conveniently in the comfort of your own home. The results of take-home whitening and in-office treatment are identical, though take-home whitening takes longer for full results.

In-Office Whitening

In-office whitening provides faster results than take-home whitening, so it’s a popular choice. Dr. Sweeney will use UV (ultraviolet) light to excite the chemical whitener and boost your results. You may be able to get a smile up to 5-10 shades brighter in just one appointment.

Cosmetic Makeovers

We offer a full range of cosmetic dental services as well as facial esthetics like Botox and dermal fillers. If you’re interested in improving your appearance, contact us now to schedule a cosmetic consultation and see which treatments may be right for you.
