Countless dental surveys have found that Americans place a very high value on the appearance of their teeth. A nice smile tops the list of the most important features to have along with clear skin, bright eyes and beautiful hair. Thanks to innovations in cosmetic dentistry, you can get a perfect smile in just a few appointments at the Fort Worth, TX office of Harris Parkway Dental Care. 

What Is Cosmetic Dentistry

Any treatment that is performed to improve the look of your teeth falls under the category of cosmetic dentistry. Dental professionals have been administering cosmetic procedures for decades, and in ancient times people used shells, stones and animal bones to create makeshift dental restorations. Today, cosmetic dentistry is a $2.75 billion industry.

Top Cosmetic Treatments

Though patients most often go to the dentist’s office because there’s an urgent problem, some go specifically for a cosmetic solution. Here are some of the top cosmetic treatments used in dental offices across the country:

• Teeth whitening – this is the simplest way to make a substantial improvement in the appearance of your teeth.  Whether you choose in-office or take home whitening, you can improve the whiteness and brightness of your teeth. 
• Dental veneers – veneers are a great option for patients that are looking to enhance their smiles in more ways than one.  Custom-made by your dentist, veneers are a popular treatment for severely stained, chipped or misshaped teeth. 
• Bonding – dental bonding is a popular dental technique used to repair teeth, replace silver amalgam fillings, repair cracks, and fix misaligned teeth. 
• Dental implants – when you are missing a tooth, or multiple teeth, dental implants offer a permanent solution to fill in gaps where teeth are missing. 

Getting Your Perfect Smile

In some cases, your dentist will recommend a combination of cosmetic treatments to help you get your perfect smile. For example, your treatment plan may include Invisalign clear aligners to reposition your teeth and professional whitening to make them look brighter. In some cases your dentist might need to use both veneers and crowns to recreate your smile.
