Whitening of Teeth
A chemical bleaching procedure can be used in your dentist's office or at home to blanch your teeth. Whitening in clinic requires a more efficient solution and normally takes one or more visits; but at home can take two to four weeks, while it is more convenient.
Bonding Composite
Fill the teeth with chips, to cover holes, and gaps and stains are used for enhancing the appearance of the teeth. Composite resin is used to fill small cavity or cover exposed root. It looks and functions like natural tooth. Your dentist directly applies dental products to the tooth surface during the treatment. Couples are usually made on a single visit to the office and usually take a few years.
Veneers of the tooth
Veneers are custom porcelain shells that are crafted to mimic your tooth's natural color and shape and enhance the strength of your tooth. Flavored teeth that do not reply to whitening may provide a good remedy, as well as worn or chipped teeth or teeth that have space between them. They have a better appearance than bonding and is less expensive than crowns, since they are tailored for your teeth.
When you and your dentist decide that veneers are a successful option, you will be impressed and veneers made by your dentist. You must come in to get them cemented in place for another visit. Next, remove a thin layer of tooth enamel from the dentist and then apply the veneer to your tooth. The removal of enamel can expect your teeth to be sensitive for a few days, but the feeling should soon fade and your veneers will look and feel like your teeth.
Inlays/Onlays Porcelain
Porcelain inserts are designed to fill metal fillers or wider cavities if you want them natural. The Porcelain inserts are made of custom-made inserts. You are healthy enough to stop further deterioration as soon as you are bound to the tooth and they appear like your usual tooth. Inlay/Onlays Porcelain lasts a long time and are resistant to stain.
Within the cusp tips of the tooth are mounted inlays. An onlay, however is more substantial than the inlay and extends over one or more of the tooth sides. As the inlays and onlays are made to your own person needs two visits. One is to develop the tooth and then place the onlay.
