The Basics of Cosmetic Dentistry in Brooklyn, NY

Cosmetic Dental Services

First impressions count and perhaps nothing leaves as strong of an impression as a great smile. Unfortunately, even if you exercise proper dental care, regularly brushing your teeth as your dentist recommends and keeping up to date with scheduled cleanings, your teeth may still become stained. You may also suffer other cosmetic issues. At Cosmopolitan Dental of Brooklyn, we strive to design the best smiles possible., and we’ve helped countless people improve not just their smiles, but also their overall oral health.

Cosmetic dentistry differs from other types of treatment in that it focuses primarily on improving looks. That said, our dentists always keep an eye out for our patients and their overall oral health. Beyond staining, Tteeth might also be crooked or in a bad position. Whatever the case, we can restore your smile or otherwise design it to meet your expectations and needs. In some cases, we may need to improve oral health and rehabilitate your entire mouth before we begin with cosmetic procedures.

Whiten Your Teeth for a Stand-Out Smile in NYC

Teeth whitening is one of the most common cosmetic dentistry procedures. If you’ve got a major event in NYC coming up, such as a photo shoot, wedding, presentation, or whatever else, you should consider teeth whitening. Likewise, if you simply want to enjoy a whiter, brighter smile, teeth whitening is a great idea.

There are many different teeth whitening solutions. That said, the best method is perhaps Opalescence Boost. First and foremost, Opalescence Boost is very effective when it comes to brightening teeth. This teeth whitening method offers other benefits as well:

  •  Quick: You’ll only be in the dentist's chair for about 40 minutes during treatment. Results are also noticeable quickly.
  • Straightforward: Opalescence Boost is chemically activated, which means there’s no need for specialized light treatment (which may produce uneven results).
  • Precise: With skilled hands, we can ensure precise delivery, which will help ensure good results.

Opalescence Boost uses a powerful 40 percent hydrogen peroxide solution. So long as this solution is in the hands of skilled professionals, risks are minimal. We’ve helped countless clients in NYC brighten their smile with this teeth whitening method.

Other Cosmetic Procedures #1: Dental Veneers

One of the most effective ways to restore your smile to pristine condition is to get dental veneers, which are thin layers fashioned with porcelain or a composite resin that are then fitted over the front surface of your teeth. These veneers can be custom-made to fit perfectly with your smile.

Veneers are used to improve the appearance of teeth that are discolored, chipped, or cracked. In some cases, they can also be used to conceal gaps between teeth.

Other Cosmetic Procedures #2: Dental Bonding

Your teeth may have suffered minor cracks or chips. If the damage only impacts the surface of the tooth, the overall health of the tooth may be fine. Regardless, you may want to fill these cracks and chips in to improve cosmetics.

With cosmetic dentistry in Brooklyn, a dentist can use resins and other materials to fill in cracks and replace natural materials lost to chipping. The resins are put in place, shaped, then hardened. From there, a cosmetic dentist can polish and shape the resin to fit in naturally with your teeth.

Other Cosmetic Procedures #3: Teeth Straightening (Including with Invisalign)

A straight smile is the best smile. In the past, straightening out your teeth typically meant large, bulky metal braces. While metal braces are still used, and in some situations are the best choice, patients in NYC and elsewhere now have more options, including Invisalign.

With Invisalign, clear plastic aligners are made specifically to fit over your teeth. The liners will then slowly and precisely straighten out your smile. Over time, the liners are adjusted, and using 3-D mapping technology and other tools, new liners are made.

Compared to traditional braces, Invisalign offers many benefits:

  • Liners are much less noticeable when worn
  • Easy to take care of and keep clean
  • Easy to install with minimal pain
  • Produces relatively quick results

Often, you can continue to enjoy the foods you love. With traditional metal braces, you might need to skip some foods as they can cause problems. While Invisalign is a popular choice in New York, in some cases metal braces may be more appropriate. With especially crooked teeth, metal braces may be needed.
