Cosmetic Dentistry

-

 


If your teeth are stained, discolored, worn, chipped, broken, misaligned, misshapen, or have gaps between them, modern cosmetic dentistry can give you a better smile. A “smile makeover” improves the appearance of your smile through one or more cosmetic dentistry procedures. Cosmetic dentists work with you to develop a treatment plan. Below you’ll find some information that can help you learn more about the various types of cosmetic dental procedures available. The Seminole Dental  in Texas City is conveniently located near MS Doss City Park and Seminole Hospital District is the  low cost dental office by me.

Inlays and Onlays

Inlays and onlays, also called indirect fillings, are made from gold, porcelain, or composite materials and fill decayed or damaged teeth. Dental fillings are molded into place during an office visit; however, inlays and onlays are created in a dental laboratory and bonded into place by your dentist. The filling is called an “inlay” when the material is bonded within the center of a tooth; it is called an “onlay” when the filling includes one or more points of the tooth or covers the biting surface. Inlays and onlays preserve as much healthy tooth as possible and are an alternative to crowns. 

Dental Implants

Dental implants are titanium replacement tooth roots inserted into the bone socket of the missing tooth. As the jawbone heals, it grows around the implanted metal post, anchoring it securely in the jaw and providing a foundation for a replacement tooth. 

Other Options

A bridge is made of crowns for the teeth on either side of a gap with false teeth in between. A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth. Dental braces can straighten crooked or misaligned teeth and works by applying continuous pressure over a period of time to slowly move teeth in a specific direction.

So what can we eat that helps our teeth?

  There are plenty of food options that can have a positive effect on our dental and general health. There is a lot of research that indicates the importance of eating a diet rich in minerals and vitamins. In particular Vitamin A, Vitamin B, Vitamin D, Vitamin K, calcium, magnesium, potassium and zinc. Highly processed foods often lack many of these vital components so there is a lot to be said for eating a wholefood, natural diet. High in vegetables, pasture raised protein and healthy fats. When visiting the grocery shop a lot of these options can be found by shopping around the outer edges of the shop. So, if no matter how much effort you are putting into cleaning your teeth you still find yourself needing fillings, it might be time to re-evaluate what you’re eating and how you are fueling your body.    The S eminole Dental    in Texas City is conveniently located near MS Doss City Park and Seminole Hospital District is a  low cost dental office by me.

Why you might need it

  The pain of toothache can leave us in agony and misery, sometimes unable to function. Arriving after we reach adulthood, our wisdom teeth (or third molars) can cause a range of dental problems. They can be obstructed by our other 28 adult teeth and emerge at an angle or get stuck and only partially come through.   The S eminole Dental    in Texas City is conveniently located near MS Doss City Park and Seminole Hospital District is a  low cost dental office by me. Food and bacteria can get trapped around the edges of such teeth and cause on-going problems such as tooth decay (caries) and gum disease - despite regular brushing and flossing. Removing some or all of the wisdom teeth can be a long term solution. Why you might need it Our wisdom teeth typically emerge in our late teens or early 20s. Some people never develop them while others have up to four – one in each back corner of the mouth. Wisdom teeth usually cause no problems, but if there isn’t enough space for them to grow and
