Dentistry is a combination of both art and science. Dental health providers must equally consider a patient’s health and the appearance of their smile.
At Dental Care Center, we provide patients with treatments that preserve and restore the health and aesthetic of their smiles and have created this guide to help patients understand why multi-faceted dental care is important.
Cosmetic Materials in Dentistry
Porcelain and composite resin are regularly used materials in modern dental services. These are matched to the shade of the neighboring teeth, creating a seamless smile when fillings, crowns, and teeth replacement are necessary. These cosmetic restorations are also resistant to staining and preserve a healthy appearance.
Comprehensive treatments like bridges, dentures, and implant restorations also mimic the appearance of natural teeth and healthy gum tissue where necessary. This ensures that patients can smile with confidence after receiving treatment.
Durable Dental Restorations
Multi-faceted treatment plans not only enhance the appearance of the smile but support the long term health of a patient’s bite. Metal-free crowns can be made from a variety of different dental ceramics, tailored to the needs of each patient. Crowns made from zirconia are able to support the pressures of chewing and can last for years with proper care.
Provided patients avoid damaging habits such as ice chewing and finger nail biting, zirconia crowns allow patients to use all the force of natural teeth to bite and chew dense and fibrous foods, without the fear of breaking their dental prosthetics.
Combining Art and Science
As cosmetic dentists, we are committed to providing patients with wholly healthy smiles, while enhancing or complementing the appearance of their teeth. While the primary goal of every good dentist is the long lasting health and happiness of their patients, it is our creativity and artistic ability that improves patients’ confidence.
Dr. Hokanson and Dr. Bouzis are able to restore the health of teeth that have experienced mild or significant decay while creating better smile symmetry and overall aesthetics. Your treatment plan begins with establishing a baseline of dental health, followed by the use of natural-looking restorations for overall dental cosmetics.
