Cosmetic Dentistry Q & A

What can a cosmetic dentist fix?

There are many tooth imperfections a cosmetic dentist can improve, including: 

  • Cracked teeth
  • Chipped teeth
  • Tooth discoloration
  • Slightly misshapen or crooked teeth

Should you need more extensive repairs, like replacing missing teeth or crowning severely damaged teeth, the team at William Lessne, D.D.S. & Bilal Chaudhry D.D.S. offers general dentistry services to meet those needs as well.

What cosmetic dentistry services does William Lessne, D.D.S. & Bilal Chaudhry D.D.S. offer?

Cosmetic dentists perform various procedures, from minor aesthetic fixes to major oral surgeries. The team at William Lessne, D.D.S. & Bilal Chaudhry D.D.S. specializes in the following cosmetic procedures:

Tooth Bonding

Ideal for repairing a chip or mild crack in a tooth, tooth bonding uses a tooth-colored composite resin and a UV light to repair damage conservatively. Your dentist shapes the resin around the tooth and hardens it with the light to bond it with your teeth. The finished product covers the chip or crack and restores a perfect-looking tooth.

Bonding is less expensive than most other cosmetic treatment options and is often completed during one visit to the dentist.

Veneers 

Veneers are tooth-colored porcelain sheets that your dentist cement over the surface of your teeth. Veneers give you bright, white teeth with no visible chips or cracks. They can also eliminate small spaces between your teeth or make slightly crooked teeth appear straighter.

Your dentist prepares your teeth for veneers by making a unique model of your teeth. The model is sent to a dental technician to create your custom-made veneers. Before placing veneers on your teeth, your dentist may remove a thin layer of enamel to achieve the desired result.

GLO teeth whitening

William Lessne, D.D.S. & Bilal Chaudhry D.D.S. is a proud partner of GLO® teeth whitening. The Guided Light Optics® is an in-office tooth whitening service that gives you the whitest smile comfortably in under an hour. Your dentist applies a special gel to a tooth tray that sits in your mouth and uses heat and light to achieve the best results.

There are many over-the-counter products to whiten your teeth, but professional teeth whitening offers safer, faster, and more dramatic results.

Is there cosmetic dentistry I can do at home?

In addition to GLO teeth whitening in the office, William Lessne, D.D.S. & Bilal Chaudhry D.D.S. provides take-home whitening kits using the GLO technology to help maintain your white smile after in-office whitening treatments. At-home whitening with GLO takes just eight minutes.

If you want to forget about using whitening strips, trays, or dealing with tooth sensitivity, ask the team about on-the-go whitening. Simply brush a whitening gel onto your teeth anytime for the easiest way to whiten your teeth at home or anywhere.

If you’re ready to feel proud of your smile, call the office, or book an appointment online with William Lessne, D.D.S. & Bilal Chaudhry D.D.S. today.
