Aesthetic Dentistry
What is dentistry?
Dentistry is a branch of medicine that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases and disorders of the oral cavity and the craniofacial region. Dentists, or dental professionals, are the practitioners of dentistry who work to preserve oral health, diagnose, and treat diseases of the teeth and surrounding tissues.
Dental activities include cleaning and caring for teeth, managing gum diseases, extracting damaged or mispositioned teeth, correcting orthodontic problems.
A visit to the orthodontist is recommended to correct issues with dental alignment and malocclusions, improving both the function and aesthetics of the smile.
Orthodontic treatment can begin in pediatric or adult age, depending on the patient’s needs.
Some discomfort and pressure sensations may be present after installation or adjustments, but they are usually temporary and manageable.
No, the removal of the orthodontic appliance must be done only by the orthodontic professional to ensure a safe and correct outcome.
Cosmetic Gum Surgery
- Gummy Smile; in cases where a person’s gums are very noticeable during a smile or laughter. In these cases, the gum level rises higher, and porcelain veneers are used to cover the teeth.
- In cases where the gums are enlarged, due to the use of various medications or gum diseases, and cover a portion of the teeth.
- In cases where there is a difference in length with the gum portion, we can ensure that the teeth have the same length.
- In cases where the length of the tooth is insufficient for procedures on it, a crown lengthening is performed.
