Do cosmetic imperfections in your teeth keep you from living your best life? If you are embarrassed of the appearance of your teeth, your reluctance to smile can impact how you are perceived by others. In fact, it can give others the impression that you are angry, unhappy, or frustrated. Therefore, at Smile Center in Buffalo, we offer a vast array of cosmetic dental treatments to our patients. Below, we’re sharing the various services we offer and how you can enhance your smile with cosmetic dental care.

Cosmetic Dental Treatments are available at Smile Center in Buffalo

At The Smile Center, we combine experience, artistry, and a gentle touch along with advanced dental technology to help you have the smile of your dreams. We understand that all patients are different, which is why we offer a full range of services. Whether you are bothered by discolored teeth, missing teeth, or anything in between, we can help. Depending on your aesthetic concerns, we may recommend one or more of the following services.

Teeth Whitening

Perhaps the most affordable way to truly make an impact with your smile, teeth whitening adds vibrancy and brightness to the teeth. In addition to being unsightly, dull or discolored teeth can give the impression that your teeth are unhealthy. Professional teeth whitening uses professional strength bleaching gel to lift away stains from the enamel and whiten the teeth to your desired shade.

At Smile Center, we offer both in-office and take-home whitening trays. In-office whitening allows you to have a whiter smile in about an hour, while at-home whitening kits gradually whiten teeth over several weeks. Ask us how you can maintain your newly whitened smile with our “Bright Smiles for Life” program.

Porcelain Veneers

If you have cosmetic imperfections, veneers can transform the appearance of your smile. Porcelain veneers are custom designed strips of ceramic that are attached to the front of teeth to mask several aesthetic flaws. They are durable and long-lasting. The most common reasons for porcelain veneers include:

• Misshapen teeth
• Permanent discoloration
• Small gaps between teeth
• Chipped teeth
• Slightly crooked teeth

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are a tooth covering that covers the entire visible portion of the tooth. Dental crowns can be used for several reasons including:

• Teeth that require large fillings
• A cracked filling
• After root canal procedures
• To strengthen a weakened tooth
• In conjunction with restorations such as dental bridges and dental implants

Tooth-colored filling

While fillings are technically a restoration, it doesn’t mean they should detract from the appearance of your smile. At Smile Center we use tooth-colored fillings that blend in with the natural tooth enamel for beautiful results.

Dental Implants

If you are missing teeth, it has an impact on the appearance and the health of the smile. Dental implants are the gold standard of tooth restoration because they provide the most stability and are the closest option to natural teeth. Dental implants are placed into the jawbone to replace the missing tooth root and, depending on the number of teeth missing, can be topped with a dental crown or implant-supported dentures.

Dentures

Dentures have come a long way in the past few decades and are considered an effective and affordable option to replace missing teeth. These days, dentures are custom-designed, natural looking and comfortable, giving you back your ability to eat and speak with confidence.
