Cosmetic dentists helping Charlotte residents smile

Cosmetic dental procedures aren't just for the rich and famous. Before heading to the Internet to research your options, learn the basics from the Charlotte, NC cosmetic dentist specialists at Ballantyne Center for Dentistry.

Here are some examples of popular cosmetic dental procedures and services:

Teeth whitening

There are two options available for teeth whitening in the Charlotte area.

A popular and painless method is L.E.D. cosmetic teeth whitening. The process is good for touchups or a first-timer. The process takes about 30 minutes and serves to remove minor discoloration. The second option is Advanced Professional Teeth Whitening.

Dental veneers

If you have gaps in your teeth, crooked teeth, or if your teeth are worn down, veneers may be a good cosmetic dental option for you. Porcelain veneers match the patient’s tooth color, which makes them unnoticeable.

Composite bonding

In some cases, bonding is a better option than veneers if you have chipped or broken teeth. Bonding can also help fill in gaps in teeth. In bonding, highly durable tooth-colored resins are bonded to your teeth, then shaped and polished.

  

Short Term Orthodontics

Many cosmetic dentists now have the ability to straighten crooked teeth or close gaps in a very conservative way.  Short-term orthodontics can also help a dentist align your teeth before doing other cosmetic procedures, which means overall you get the most conservative approach.
