1. Teeth whitening treatments and Best cosmetic Dentistry

2. Teeth Whitening • One of the most requested procedures asked of a dental office is tooth whitening. This is a procedure that will assist in removing stains and discoloration from teeth while lightening them.Tooth whitening can only be completed once cavities are treated in order to prevent the whitening solution from reaching the inner tooth and causing sensitivity. Also keep in mind that tooth whitening is unable to lighten exposed tooth roots and tooth replacements such as crowns and veneers.

3. Home Whitening • Whitening your teeth at home often involves using a custom fitted mouth trays into which a whitening gel is placed. These custom fitted mouth trays will help protect your gums from irritation that occurs while using ill-fitted over-the-counter whitening mouth trays. After the gel material is placed in the mouth tray, it is placed over the teeth and left on for approx. 20 minutes. Ask Dr. Raina if home whitening is right for you.

4. Bonding • Bonding is a common cosmetic procedure due to its ease of application and excellent esthetic results. It is often used to reshape or change the color of a tooth and fill in slight spaces between teeth. The composite material used in bonding can be shaped and polished to match all surrounding teeth

5. Tooth Colored Fillings • In order to make a filling appear almost invisible to the naked eye, composite fillings are often used. These fillings are designed to match your natural tooth color and are bonded to your teeth, which makes them less likely to fall out. These fillings are used to replace older fillings made of silver or gold. Tooth colored fillings have a more aesthetic appearance, can be completed in one visit, form a strong seal and are less likely to crack a tooth.

6. Dental Veneers • Your teeth are cleaned so that only your natural tooth is exposed. Old surface restorations are removed. An impression is taken of the tooth area where the veneers are to be placed and sent to the lab for fabrication. When the veneers are ready, your dentist will check the fit along with its future appearance, then permanently bond them to your teeth. After the veneer is set, it is shaped and polished to look like a natural tooth.

7. Crown Esthetics • For smaller or worn down teeth, a crown can restore the natural size of the old tooth.  Crowns are usually recommended for fractured teeth, teeth with huge fillings, teeth with fracture lines to prevent complete fracture and to protect teeth.

8. Crown Procedure • A crown is sometimes termed a “cap” or “jacket.” A crown will restore a large filling or a cracked tooth to its original size, shape and tooth color. Teeth in the base after getting root canal treatment are recommended crowns as the tooth tends to become brittle and is more likely to fracture. A crown can strengthen and protect the remaining tooth structure and improves the appearance of your teeth. With the advances in technology, we now have the ability to make ceramic crowns with no metal.

9. Gold Crown • The ‘gold’ standard. Gold does not tarnish or corrode and has some bacterial inhibiting quality. Gold crowns are strong even when they are only a mm in thickness. However, gold crowns obviously are not considered esthetic are recommended for back molars.

10. Porcelain Fused To Metal Crown • PFM crowns are fairly esthetic and they look like real teeth. However, the margins or borders may appear dark because PFM crowns have a metal substructure with layers of porcelain fired over the substructure.
