Cosmetic Dentistry at Dental Smiles Flagstaff

Some of our cosmetic dental treatments are outlined here, including composite fillings, veneers, dental implants and porcelain onlays and crowns.

Composite Bonding

Composite bonding is a highly effective treatment that can give you a beautiful smile, with minimal preparation of your natural teeth. Composite bonding involves applying a putty-like, tooth-coloured resin to your smile, which is hardened under a UV light. The process is fast and painless, with lasting results. Some small preparation of the tooth surface is required, but the treatment isn’t considered invasive.

Veneers

Veneers are a layer of thin porcelain that is bonded to the front surface of a tooth. They are used to cover cosmetic issues with your front teeth such as tooth position, shape or colour. A small amount of tooth preparation is needed so that is the correct shape for the veneer but this is often as minimal as is possible.

It is also possible to have composite resin veneers and these are often bonded directly to the tooth surface with often no or little tooth preparation.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are an effective way to replace missing teeth. Implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed in the jawbone to act like to tooth roots. They are made from titanium which is well tolerated by the body and integrates with the bone. This allows a crown or bridge to be placed on top and missing tooth/teeth replaced.

Implants can improve how you eat and speak, prevent bone loss in the jawbone and keep existing teeth firmly in place. You must maintain good oral hygiene after implant treatment.

Porcelain Onlays and Crowns

In cases where the hole is too large to just fill with composite, we recommend onlays or crowns as otherwise what remains of the tooth is often at risk of fracturing.

An onlay or crown restores the cavity and extends enough to protect the remaining structure of the tooth from fracturing. A crown is a more extensive form of an onlay but requires more tooth preparation.
