Cosmetic Dentistry with Dr. McCool of Lilburn, GA

Are you content with your smile? If not, then you may be a candidate for cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dental procedures in the Atlanta area are performed primarily to improve the appearance of the teeth. If you have teeth that are discolored, misshapen or severely decayed, then dental crowns may be a good choice for you.

A crown is a covering that is placed over your tooth. Sometimes, crowns are called caps. Crowns can be made out of gold or porcelain material. Porcelain is often the preferred material because it looks more natural. However, if the dentist uses a gold crown, then he may be able to preserve more of your natural tooth. Both gold and porcelain crowns are designed to deliver long-lasting results.

You will be required to make two trips to the dental office to get your crowns misplaced. During the first visit, you will get an x-ray. If the x-ray shows that the tooth has significantly decayed, then you may be required to undergo a root canal prior to getting your crown placed. You may also be required to get a root canal if you are at an increased risk for developing a tooth infection. Additionally, you will get a temporary crown. The permanent crown is placed during the second dental visit.

You may be a good candidate for dental bridges if you have one or more missing teeth. Missing teeth are a cause for concern because they can cause the other teeth to shift, which can lead to bite problems. This can also cause debris and plaque to build up, which can lead to gum disease.

A dental bridge is made up of false teeth that are held in place with dental implants, your natural teeth or a combination of the two. Dental bridges can restore your smile as well as your ability to eat and talk normally. They can also help you maintain the shape of your face.
