If you’re experiencing functional problems with your tooth, have lost one, or have had it extracted, completing everyday activities like eating or speaking may be uncomfortable. Damaged or decayed teeth often cause sensitivity and pain. Chips or cracks can make even the most confident person feel self-conscious. When a tooth is damaged, that doesn’t mean it needs to be extracted. If the tooth’s roots and interior are still healthy, then the tooth is worth saving.
We may need to give it a new exterior. If you’ve got chipped teeth, cracked teeth, or broken teeth, we can make your smile whole and fully functional again with dental bridges and dental crowns in Gibsonia, PA. At Smile! Dental Center, Dr. Gregory Novotny is skilled in these restorative treatments and has the artistic eye to provide aesthetically attractive outcomes and return function to your tooth. Your new restoration, made from porcelain or ceramic materials, will blend seamlessly with your existing teeth and be strong enough to bite and chew foods comfortably again.
Virtually all patients with cosmetic problems are candidates for dental veneers if they are in good oral health. As a cosmetic dentistry treatment, veneers aren’t meant to resolve functional issues with teeth, such as a bad bite (malocclusion). Instead, they can be a great option if you have the following issues in your smile zone, or the teeth that show when you smile:
Porcelain veneers treatment is a highly personalized and detailed process at our Gibsonia, PA practice. To provide the greatest aesthetics, veneers must hide problem teeth and give the appearance of a new smile that looks and feels completely natural. During your first appointment, our cosmetic dentist, Dr. Novotny, will remove a few millimeters of the front surface of your tooth enamel. This ensures that your custom dental veneers fit naturally and comfortably over your existing teeth. Next, we’ll take impressions of your modified teeth, which will be used to hand-design your veneers to the ideal size, shape, and color for a beautiful new smile.
When these restorations are ready, you’ll return to our cosmetic dentistry practice in Gibsonia, PA, for a second appointment, where we’ll verify the final fit of your veneers and then bond them securely to your teeth. You won’t need to complete any special maintenance with veneers, and though they won’t stain as natural teeth do, you should continue brushing and flossing each day. The long-lasting result of your smile makeover is a series of dental veneers that complement your gum and lip line, facial features, and skin tone! In short, you’ll have the smile of your dreams, which will last you for many years.
