Learn How Cosmetic Dentistry Can Enhance Your Oral Health

Cosmetic dentistry is used to make changes to imperfections on a patient’s smile. At Cosmetic Dental Studios, our cosmetic dentist in NYC has helped many patients achieve their dream celebrity smile. Dr. Victoria Veytsman uses a technology called Digital Smile Design to help her patients visualize and design their smiles before committing to any cosmetic dentistry procedures. She can create a treatment plan that improves not only your smile but also your oral health. After all, healthy teeth can lead to a healthy body.

What cosmetic dentistry procedures can correct

A smile makeover can correct many dental issues in New York City, NY, including:

• Broken, chipped, or cracked teeth: Veneers can be used to repair chipped teeth. Cracked teeth may require root canal therapy. After root canal therapy is completed, a crown restores the look and function of the tooth. Dental bonding can also be used for more minor chips.

• Crooked teeth: With veneers, you can cover your existing teeth with thin porcelain shells to create a straight and white smile. Invisalign® helps a patient gradually shift their teeth to desired positions with clear teeth aligners.

• Discoloration, stains, or yellowing: When you have stains, yellowing, or discoloration on your teeth, Dr. V. can whiten your teeth with Zoom! WhiteSpeed in-office laser teeth whitening. This treatment uses a laser to activate a whitening gel that brightens teeth. The entire treatment takes less than an hour and gives instantly whiter teeth.

• Decayed teeth: If your tooth has tooth decay, it is first removed, then a tooth-colored filling is used to restore the tooth to look natural.

How does your oral health impact your overall health?

Ultimately, your mouth impacts your general health. Regular dental exams at our Midtown Manhattan dental office allow us to detect dental problems early before pain or infection develops. Periodontal disease can lead to many significant health issues. The mouth is a central point of entry to systems in the body that keep us healthy. Our dental team believes that by improving our patient’s oral health, we are helping their overall health.

Maintaining good oral health helps decrease your risk of developing various medical conditions. Ultimately, without proper dental health, other health issues can occur, including:

• Some types of cancer

• Dementia

• High blood pressure

• Heart disease

• Type II diabetes

• Premature birth or miscarriage

• Stroke

Good dental hygiene helps keep your teeth and gums in the best shape possible. Uncontrolled gum disease or untreated tooth decay can lead to tooth loss, which can also lead to significant health problems. Regular dental exams and dental cleanings allow us to detect problems early before they develop into more serious and painful ones.
