What’s the difference between restorative dentistry and cosmetic dentistry?
Restorative dentistry focuses on improving oral health and function. Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your smile.
Some dental procedures offer both functional and cosmetic improvements (aesthetic restorative dentistry). For example, a dental crown restores chewing function, but it can also make your smile look more uniform.
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the overall appearance of your teeth, gums and smile. It’s important to keep up with general dental care to maintain healthy tooth function, but cosmetic dentistry treatments can complement overall oral health by enhancing a patient’s smile, with the potential added benefits of improved self-esteem and confidence.
Cosmetic dentistry could include the following:
- Teeth Whitening
- Bonding
- Veneers
- Clear Aligners
Teeth Whitening – A Popular Trend
Tooth whitening lightens teeth and helps to remove stains and discoloration. Whitening is among the most popular cosmetic dental procedures because it can greatly improve how your teeth look. Most dentists perform tooth whitening.
There are two main types of whitening procedures. Vital whitening is performed on teeth that have live nerves. Non-vital whitening is done on a tooth that has had root-canal treatment and no longer has a live nerve
Whitening is not a one-time procedure. It will need to be repeated from time to time if you want to maintain the brighter color.
