Cosmetic dentistry refers to dental procedures and treatments that are designed to improve the appearance of a person’s teeth, gums, and smile. Unlike traditional dentistry, which is primarily focused on maintaining the health of the teeth and gums, cosmetic dentistry is more concerned with enhancing their aesthetic appeal.
Cosmetic dental procedures can range from simple treatments such as teeth whitening and composite bonding to more complex procedures such as dental implants, veneers, and orthodontic treatments like braces and aligners. These treatments can improve the appearance of teeth that are stained, chipped, misshapen, or crooked, as well as replace missing teeth or restore damaged teeth.
Cosmetic dentistry can have a significant impact on a person’s confidence and self-esteem, as a beautiful smile can improve overall appearance and make a person feel more attractive and confident.
