Depending on your dental insurance plan and the kind of procedure you need, you may be eligible for cost reimbursement. Most plans cover preventive care and basic services such as fillings, root canals, and tooth extractions. In addition, they will likely reimburse you for cosmetic procedures that are medically necessary. Therefore, you can expect that your dental plan will cover the cost of a cosmetic dentist visit if you are unable to pay out of pocket.
Dental implants
Dental implants are one of the most common methods used by cosmetic dentists to replace missing teeth. The procedure can make a huge difference to your smile. Implants are similar to natural teeth in that they require daily brushing with a non-abrasive toothpaste and daily flossing using a special interdental brush or water flosser.
Implants are surgically placed in the jawbone where the missing tooth used to be. The dentist will make an incision in the gums to expose the jawbone. The cosmetic dentist implant is then placed into the jawbone, which will heal for a few months. After the healing period is complete, the final crown will be attached to the implant.
Dental implants have many benefits, including long-lasting results. They can last up to 25 years before needing replacement. Implants can also prevent bone loss, which can lead to premature aging and facial disfigurement.
Teeth whitening
Teeth whitening is a common procedure that can make your smile look more attractive. However, it is important to find a cosmetic dentist who can perform the procedure safely and effectively. Teeth whitening kits available over the counter can cause discoloration and are not as effective as a procedure performed by a cosmetic dentist.
Teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures in the world. Your cosmetic dentist will use a variety of techniques and tools to achieve the white teeth you want. The procedure can last anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Teeth whitening procedures can improve your appearance dramatically.
Professional whitening treatments such as Zoom!(r) and BriteSmile(r) use a special gel containing hydrogen peroxide to lift stains while leaving your teeth’s structure intact. After teeth whitening is complete, patients can expect to see a noticeable difference in their smile. After the procedure, patients will need to maintain the whiteness of their teeth through brushing and flossing, and may need periodic touch-ups.
Porcelain veneers
Porcelain veneers are used to improve the appearance of a tooth. The procedure involves bonding porcelain veneers onto a tooth’s surface, a process that typically takes about 30 minutes per tooth. A crown is another option, which covers all visible areas of a tooth and is permanently cemented in place. It is customized to match the patient’s natural teeth, and is also more durable and resistant to stains. A dental crown also prevents objects from becoming lodged in the tooth.
The procedure can correct chipped front teeth, hide tooth discoloration, and close small gaps between front teeth. The porcelain veneers are designed to look like natural tooth enamel, and are made in a lab. Your dentist takes impressions of your teeth, which the lab will then use to make the veneers. The dentist will make slight adjustments so that the veneers look as natural as possible.
