Four dental problems aesthetic dental treatments can correct
Dental practitioners rely on the diverse array of cosmetic dentistry Wimbledon treatments to correct many of the teeth-related issues patients have that detract from a pleasing dental appearance. Dental issues specific to creating a less-than perfect smile that can be fixed with suitable aesthetic dental treatments include many common problems.
Stained teeth
It is not always easy to avoid stained or discoloured teeth, as there are numerous causes that can contribute to this problem. Some of these causes are the natural progression of time or ageing, the types of foods and beverages one consumes or an underlying oral health problem. A qualified dental practitioner is best placed to determine the exact cause of discoloured teeth and to suggest the most suitable form of treatment. Most often, patients wanting to resolve this issue will be asked to consider professional teeth whitening or veneers if there are other aesthetic improvements that also need to be made.
Chipped teeth
Chipped teeth can be a frustrating cosmetic issue to experience, they also have concerning consequences for the health of the teeth – chips in enamel can pave the way for harmful germs and bacteria to enter the more vulnerable layers of the tooth’s inner structure. Issues that deal with chips or cracks in teeth can be quite easily fixed with veneers.
Crooked teeth
Wonky teeth pose not just an aesthetic concern that affects one’s ability to smile confidently, but depending on the extent of the problem, can have serious repercussions for optimal mouth function. To correct minor crooked teeth issues, dentists can provide veneer treatments. If crooked teeth hinder mouth function then the patient may have to consider orthodontic treatment.
Missing teeth
Gaps in teeth are another problem that has a negative impact on a patient’s oral health in more than one way, including the aesthetics and functioning of a smile. A patient may lose the confidence to smile and engage with others and in addition to this, may experience difficulties in eating and speaking. Dental implants are becoming the standard treatment to replace missing teeth and restore full mouth functionality, creating a winning smile.
Patients may well wonder at the need to invest in cosmetic dentistry, but we at Wimbledon Dental Care would like patients to consider the value of these aesthetic improvements and how they can enhance the quality of life that can be experienced, as well as improve mouth function and oral health. Seen in this light, there is more reason to consider cosmetic dental treatments. Give us a call when you are ready to take the next step to invest in yourself and your oral health.
