In any case, you can recruit a cosmetic dentist in Brunswick to help restore your smile and Lotus Dental is home to the best around. Learn more about what cosmetic dentistry is and how you can benefit from it below.

What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

In general, cosmetic dentistry refers to procedures that are meant to improve the appearance of your teeth and gums. Even though the focus is on aesthetics, some procedures will also restore the strength and function of your teeth and gums.

Check out some of the specific ways we meet patients’ needs for cosmetic dentistry in Brunswick:

Teeth Whitening

Certain dietary choices, overexposure to fluoride, and other factors can discolour your teeth over time. If your teeth aren’t pearly white, our cosmetic dentists in Brunswick will perform teeth whitening services.

For your convenience, we do all of our teeth whitening right in our clinic. The whole process only takes an hour to complete, and you’ll notice immediate results.

Bonding

Bonding is the most simple cosmetic dentistry procedure available. The bonding material is applied to an existing discoloured, chipped, cracked, or decayed tooth.

Before applying the bonding material, we carefully polish, shape, and colour it to ensure it matches the surrounding teeth.

Veneers

Veneers are similar to bonding, but creating them is a more detailed process. Our team uses very thin shells of porcelain crafted by expert ceramists. These shells will fit the exact mould of your teeth to produce the most realistic-looking final result possible.

Veneers typically last longer than bonding material does. We will permanently bond them to the front of your teeth to cover up imperfections like chips, gaps, and stains.

Implants

If you have one or more missing teeth, our cosmetic dentists in Brunswick will replace them with permanent dental implants. Our implants not only look natural, but they also offer durability you can rely on.

Crowns & Bridges

Both crowns and bridges are prosthetic devices that improve the appearance of a smile. We’ll typically use crowns for fractured or damaged teeth, while bridges are used for missing teeth.

Fillings

Are you stuck with a bunch of old-fashioned metal amalgam fillings? While these used to be dentists’ go-to way to fill cavities, they have recently fallen out of favor. They are very noticeable to others, especially when you are open-mouth smiling and laughing. And, metal fillings can darken the appearance of the rest of a tooth. Over time, the affected tooth will turn dull and grayish.

Our cosmetic dentists in Brunswick will provide you with white, natural-looking tooth fillings. We will carefully sculpt them and implement layering techniques to preserve your tooth’s shape, shade, structure, and light reflection.
