What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry includes cosmetic dental procedures that enhance the shade of teeth, correct minor crowding or spacing and in certain cases equalize teeth with different heights. Periodontal “gum” procedures, most commonly gingivectomy (shaping and equalizing gum height around teeth), can play an important role in cosmetic dentistry. This procedure is performed in our Portland, Oregon (Pearl District) office of Dental Dynamics utilizing laser surgical techniques.
The major focus of cosmetic dentistry in our offices is to accomplish the most beautiful and ideally contoured smile for our patients by utilizing the most durable and biologically compatible materials available regardless of the cost. Researching and utilizing the most durable materials and the most reliable dental labs is what allows us the ability to provide our patients a five year replacement warranty on dental implants and all fixed restorations, including dental veneers, dental crowns, and dental bridges. The only requirement is to maintain your regular cleanings and exams. In certain circumstances we may even utilize the expertise of one of our affiliate cosmetic surgeons to alter the architecture of lips for a more natural, harmonious and beautiful smile.
