Millions of Americans report that they’re dissatisfied with the condition of their smile. Of these individuals, the majority report that their smile is one of the first things they’d change if they could. This prevalence of concern highlights just how crucial cosmetic dentistry is to help people achieve the smile they want. Smile Design is a process that goes beyond mere cosmetic dental treatment. It’s a process that seeks to address all aspects of the patient’s oral health, including aesthetic concerns they may have with their smile. The team at Aloe Dental Wellness is proud to help our patients be proud of their smiles again using our comprehensive smile design service.
Exploring Smile Design At Aloe Dental Wellness
The Smile Design process begins with a consultation with Dr. Cadavid. You’ll discuss your oral health concerns and aesthetic goals during this consultation. You’ll undergo a comprehensive dental exam to identify any current or developing oral health issues so they can be addressed. The next stage of the smile design process involves using a digital design system to create a mock-up of possible results from your treatment. This mock-up will help you set proper expectations for your results and confirm that you and Dr. Cadavid understand your goals.
Some treatments that may be included in a Smile Design treatment plan include:
- Porcelain Veneers – Veneers are an excellent way of addressing multiple minor concerns with one treatment. Dental chips, cracks, gapping, and minor misalignments can all be addressed through porcelain veneers.
- Tooth Whitening – When you’re unsatisfied with the shade of your enamel, dental whitening can help. These treatments can lighten the color of your enamel by one or two shades per treatment.
- Tooth-Colored Fillings – These fillings can address cavities without negatively impacting the appearance of your smile. The results will be natural in appearance and durable enough to provide years of use.
- Dental Implant Restorations – When you have one or more missing teeth, dental implants can restore the form and function of your smile. The titanium mounting screws used to secure the implants in your jawbone promote bone growth. This leads to osseointegration, permanently fusing the screws to your jawbone, strengthening it while improving your smile.
- Dental Bonding – This treatment uses a composite resin blend of glass and plastic elements. The result can address discoloration, correct chips and cracks, and address misalignments and gaps in your teeth. The material can be tinted to appear natural and nearly invisible to the casual observer.
These are just some forms of treatment that may be included in a smile design treatment plan.
