An ideal candidate for cosmetic dentistry is someone dissatisfied with their smile due to teeth imperfections, provided they are in good oral health without tooth decay or gum disease. For patients with severely damaged teeth, restorative dentistry may be more suitable, addressing issues beyond cosmetic concerns. While cosmetic dentistry can enhance the aesthetics of minor damage, severe cases may require dental crowns or root canal treatment. It's crucial to have realistic expectations, as cosmetic procedures may not be covered by dental insurance, and a total transformation can be a significant investment. To determine candidacy, a consultation is recommended.

There's no limit to the number of cosmetic dental treatments you can receive. For those with multiple smile concerns, we recommend a cosmetic makeover consultation, where we create a personalized plan addressing issues like discoloration, chips, and misalignment with the most effective and minimally invasive treatments. Cosmetic makeovers can vary in terms of procedures needed, treatment duration, and cost, as many treatments offer multiple benefits.

Immediately after crown placement, you may experience some minor tooth sensitivity and inflammation that can last for a few days. This can be alleviated with anti-inflammatory pain medication and should subside within a couple of days. We recommend rinsing your mouth with a saltwater solution.In the long term, brush your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and floss once a day. You should attend dental cleanings every 6 months and limit your exposure to staining foods and drinks. If you grind your teeth, wear a mouthguard at night and don’t use your teeth as tools.You may also want to avoid hard, sticky, and crunchy foods which can break or dislodge your crown. Don’t chew on ice, your fingernails, or on foods like popcorn, nuts, and hard candy.
