Cosmetic Dentistry: What Are They, Benefits and Cost

Improve the aesthetics of your smile.

Here at the Antalya Dental Hospital, we believe that everyone should be wearing a smile they’re proud of. No one should hide their smile.

We often see patients who complain about fractured, heavily stained or worn out teeth. Good news is, there are many different options to correct these problems. Cosmetic dentistry has come a long way, and whether you need a few minor enhancements or a full transformation, our cosmetic dentists can help

Veneers & Smile Design

Veneers are a popular choice for those who are unhappy with their smile. A veneer is a strong, ultra-thin shell of porcelain bonded on top of the tooth to correct stained, chipped and misshaped teeth. Our cosmetic dentists can also use veneers to align slightly crowded teeth or close gaps between teeth.

Because of their versatility, veneers can be used to fix a single tooth or as a part of a smile makeover. Using the principles of smile design, we will help you recreate a natural looking smile that complements your features and personality.

Smile Makeover

There are times when we need to do a combination of cosmetic dental treatments to rebuild the natural beauty, health and function of our patients’ smiles. This may sound complex, but smile makeovers are something our dentists and specialists do on a daily basis. Smile makeovers may involve veneers, crowns, onlays, composite bonding or teeth whitening – all of which are carefully designed to give your smile a natural look and feel.

Gum Contouring

It’s not always the teeth that are the problem, for some people, it’s their gums. Oftentimes, many people lose their confidence to smile if too much of their gums show (gummy smile), or when the gums rest too high on their teeth. To improve the overall aesthetics of a smile, our dentists and periodontist (gum specialist) can perform a procedure called gum contouring or reshaping. Laser technology makes this procedure quick and relatively pain-free.

Teeth Whitening

Everybody loves a bright, white smile. It is one of the most attractive features anyone can possess. This is why more and more people opt for teeth whitening treatments to rejuvenate their smiles and boost their confidence. Done professionally, whitening at the dentist gives you safe, effective and outstanding results with zero or little discomfort.

Composite Bonding

Cosmetic bonding is a common procedure used to repair chipped or uneven tooth, or to close minor gaps between teeth. Your dentist will directly apply a tooth colored composite to the front surface of your teeth where it is contoured into the right form and hardened using a special light. The bonded tooth is polished and shaped to appear natural. Composite bonding can be used to fix a single tooth or rebuild several ones. It is usually completed in one visit.

Full Mouth Rehabilitation

A full mouth rehabilitation is when patients undergo a series of cosmetic and restorative procedures to restore the proper function, health and aesthetics of their smiles. This is typically performed for patients with a high number of severely damaged or missing teeth, or those with advanced periodontal or gum disease. Our specialists may use a variety of treatments that can include dental implants, bridges, root canal treatments, veneers and crowns to create the correct relationship between the gums, jaws, muscles and teeth.

Are there any alternatives to orthodontics?

Cosmetic contouring can be used to improve the appearance of teeth. It is ideal if you have irregular-shaped or slightly crowded teeth.

However, in contouring the teeth a small amount of enamel would be lost. Contouring can also be used to improve the shape and appearance of your gums. These treatments are not recommended for young children.

What could cause my child to have toothache?

Toothache is painful and upsetting, especially in children, and the main cause is tooth decay. This is due to too much sugar, too often, in the diet.

Teething is another problem. It starts at around 6 months, and it can continue when the adult teeth start to appear. If your child needs pain relief, make sure you choose a sugar-free medicine. If the pain continues then contact your dental team for an appointment. Remember to check with your doctor or pharmacist that you are being prescribed sugar-free medicines at all times.

How can I improve my smile?

An orthodontic appliance (‘brace’) will straighten or move your teeth to improve their appearance and the way they work. It can also help to improve the long-term health of your teeth, gums and jaw joints by spreading the biting pressure over all the teeth.

There are many different types of brace and your dental team or orthodontist will be able to talk to you about what is best for you.

Many people want to have whiter teeth. The only person who can whiten your teeth legally for you is a dentist, although there are ‘home whitening kits’ you can buy, you need to be over 18 to purchase these.
