Posted by AUSTGEN FAMILY DENTAL on May 14 2021, 10:26 AM

Cosmetic dentistry is a branch of dental care that aims to improve the appearance of your smile using one or several procedures. Although most cosmetic dental procedures are optional, they also offer many restorative and functional benefits. 

In this blog, you will learn about 5 of the best cosmetic dentistry procedures offered by Dr. Holly Austgen at Austgen Family Dental, Greenwood, IN 46142.

Dental Veneers

Dental veneers are custom-made shells that cover your natural teeth to hide imperfections. They look and feel natural and fix cosmetic problems such as cracked or damaged teeth, crooked teeth, gaps between teeth, and tooth discoloration.

The procedure involves scraping off part of the enamel and applying the veneers to the front part of your teeth using a high-grade dental adhesive.

Smile Makeover

A smile makeover is a cosmetic dental procedure designed to fix structural or aesthetic imperfections of the teeth using several treatments. For a smile makeover, Dr. Holly Austgen will examine your oral condition and understand the results you’re trying to achieve to map out a suitable treatment plan.

Teeth alignment, maxillofacial surgery, restoring missing teeth, teeth whitening are just some of the procedures that can make up a smile makeover.

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that improves your smile by removing plaque, tartar, and stains from the surface of your teeth. The treatment involves applying a concentrated hydrogen peroxide solution to your teeth and activating it with a special laser light to remove stains and brighten your smile.

Teeth Bonding

Teeth bonding, also known as composite bonding, is the process of repairing damaged, discolored, or decayed teeth using a material that resembles natural tooth enamel. To perform the procedure, Dr. Holly Austgen will drill out the decayed part and apply the bonding material onto the tooth’s surface. He will then sculpt and shape the bonding material with specialized equipment to ensure it matches the surrounding teeth.

Teeth Contouring/Crown Lengthening

Crown lengthening is a procedure that uncovers more of a person’s natural tooth structure if they have an excessively gummy smile.

Teeth contouring, on the other hand, refers to shaping the tooth by removing small portions of the enamel to improve the shape, size, and structure of the tooth.
