Being happy with your smile is extremely important for maintaining a high level of self-confidence. If you aren't satisfied with your smile, this self-consciousness can prevent you from enjoying your life to the fullest. You may smile without showing your teeth for photos or hide your smile with your hand when speaking or laughing. That’s why we’re proud to offer cosmetic dentistry in Fort Lauderdale.

At 1500 Dental, we want our patients to walk out of our office with a smile they can proudly show off. There are many ways we can make this happen. Are your teeth discolored? Are they misaligned? We can help you achieve the appearance you've been looking for all this time.

What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry is typically isn't a requirement for maintaining oral health, but it can have several indirect benefits. For example, if you have misaligned teeth, it can be much harder to brush and floss effectively. Once we straighten them, those spots that were once difficult to reach can be cleaned with ease.

Cosmetic Dentistry Options

Since your smile is usually the first thing people notice about you, it's important to be satisfied with how it looks. Some of the treatments available to you include the following.

Teeth Whitening

You've probably wondered what the main difference is between a professional teeth whitening treatment and something you can get over-the-counter. Why is professional whitening so much better? It mainly comes down to the concentration of the whitening gel we use, which uses more of the bleaching agent.

In-office solutions are far superior because you'll be closely monitored by experts who ensure the solution does not get on your gums, thanks to customized whitening trays. A take-home kit is another option, which will be safer and work better than over-the-counter treatments.

Dental Veneers

If your teeth are chipped or cracked, dental veneers could be the perfect option for you. Their very thin shells are placed over the visible side of your smile. It is important to be sure of your decision to get veneers since a very thin layer of your teeth will be removed to make room for them.

They are known for their very realistic and natural appearance. Plus, you can choose only to get one or multiple. While they can blend in well with your natural teeth, many people decide to get an entire arch of veneers to improve their entire smile.

Also, even though veneers can remedy chips and cracks, they are a great option for those with stubborn stains. Sometimes teeth whitening is not enough, and some discolored spots could be left behind. With veneers, you won't have to worry about those pesky stains.

Dental Crowns

For teeth that are severely decayed or broken, a natural-looking dental crown can restore the appearance of your smile. We will shave down a portion of your tooth and place the crown on top in these cases. Crowns are not just a great cosmetic option. They also function just like a natural tooth!

Orthodontics

It's amazing what orthodontics can do to your teeth. By the end of your treatment, you'll probably look like a completely different person! The treatment time will depend on the severity of your misalignment. Mildly crooked teeth can be fixed a lot faster than teeth that are wildly out of order. The dentist will go over projected treatment times during your consultation.

When it's time to put your braces on, we will place brackets on your teeth with a special adhesive, then thread the wire, which is used to shift your teeth position. You will need to come in for occasional adjustments to reach proper alignment.
