Did you know that cosmetic dentistry procedures are one of the fastest-growing areas in dentistry? While the purpose of cosmetic dentistry is to improve the look of your smile, it goes beyond aesthetics. Having a straight, white, and beautiful set of teeth has a positive impact on our self-confidence and mental health. We’re more open to socializing, meeting new people, and smiling more frequently.
Cosmetic dentistry can also improve our oral health simply because we become more motivated to take care of our teeth and smile. At Yankee Valley Dental, we offer the following cosmetic dentistry services in Airdrie. We have a collaborative approach between our patients and the dental team to come up with an affordable payment plan and provide the information you need so you can make an informed decision.
Braces
We offer both traditional braces and clear Invisalign aligners. Braces can correct a misaligned bite and straighten crooked teeth. Not only do braces improve the appearance of teeth, but they can address oral health issues that arise from misaligned and crooked teeth such as tooth decay.
Braces work by using gradual pressure to move your teeth into place. Over the course of your treatment, you’ll meet with your dentist to check progress and make adjustments as needed. Braces are one of the safest and most effective ways to straighten teeth.
Porcelain Veneers
Commonly referred to as the “Hollywood Smile”, porcelain veneers can help you achieve a perfect, natural-looking smile. Veneers are custom-made to fit your teeth and are glued onto your existing teeth, masking any spaces, discolouration, crowding, or spacing issues.
It’s important to note that veneers are irreversible and your dentist will remove a thin layer of enamel to make room for the veneer. Because of this, we will need to assess the overall health of your teeth and gums before we can recommend veneers. We will discuss with you whether they are the right long-term cosmetic option so you can make a sound decision.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening products are stronger and more powerful than any commercial whitening kits you’ll find on the shelf. You can achieve better results in a shorter amount of time. Custom-made whitening trays ensure that every angle of your tooth is whitened to achieve even coverage.
When you come in for teeth whitening at Yankee Valley Dental, we will treat any issues such as tooth decay before moving forward with teeth whitening treatments to ensure that your results are consistent.
