Crooked Teeth

3 Cosmetic Dental Treatments for Crooked Teeth

If you’ve been self-conscious or uncomfortable because of crooked teeth, there are plenty of affordable, effective cosmetic dentistry options available. Gone are the days when the only option for crooked teeth were expensive, traditional metal braces. Wooddell & Passaro Restorative & Esthetic Dentistry in Davidsonville, MD offers personalized treatment plans to help patients achieve the smile of their dreams.

Learn more about customized cosmetic dentistry treatments to straighten crooked teeth and restore your confidence in your smile.

Porcelain Dental Veneers

Dental veneers are thin porcelain shells that are attached to your natural teeth, instantly transforming your smile with minimal preparation. In some cases, veneers are even used instead of braces for patients with minor misalignments.

Veneers are resistant to stains and can last a long time — sometimes more than twenty years. Depending on your cosmetic goals, porcelain dental veneers can be the treatment you’re looking for to quickly transform your smile.

Invisible Braces

Many adult patients look to invisible braces as a discreet way to straighten crooked teeth. Most would say they don’t want metal braces in a professional environment! Clear braces, as part of a detailed treatment plan, are custom-fitted to your mouth and are a great way to straighten teeth regardless of age. These translucent aligners are to be worn 22 hours a day but are easily removed for eating, oral hygiene, and cleaning.

Treatment time varies for each case, but most patients complete their treatment in less than 2 years. Your cosmetic dentist will give you detailed instructions for how to use your aligners and take detailed measurements to ensure a comfortable, effective treatment.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

For patients looking for a simple, painless way to correct uneven or crooked teeth, consider cosmetic dental bonding. With bonding, your dentist applies a resin to the front surface of the teeth to be treated. This treatment is ideal for closing gaps between teeth, reshaping them, or even lightening dark or yellowed teeth with minimal tooth preparation.

In fact, cosmetic bonding is considered a minimally invasive procedure because there are no needles or anesthesia, and can be applied in a single office visit. Imagine having a brand new smile in just one day!
