About Cosmetic Dentistry in Brooklyn, NY

At LuxDen dental clinic, we understand that cosmetic dentistry provides our dental patients more than just an improved smile. Our cosmetic dentists in Brooklyn recommends customized dental treatments to our patients after a close dental examination and x-rays to evaluate each patient’s needs. Cosmetic dentistry aims to improve the appearance of the teeth, gums, and mouth as a whole. While they don’t promote increased functionality, they do benefit many patients who have a less than desirable smile. Whether you are receiving veneers, tooth bonding, teeth whitening, or Invisalign, our Brooklyn dental office can provide many professional cosmetic dentistry options.

Understanding Dental Veneers

Dental veneers

Dental veneers, often called porcelain veneers or dental porcelain laminates, are ultra-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. These pieces are bonded to the front of the teeth changing their color, shape, size, or length. Dental veneers can be made from porcelain or resin composite materials. Ultimately, these dental appliances in Brooklyn can help solve the problem of discolored, worn down, chipped, broken, misaligned, uneven, or gapped teeth.

Porcelain veneers

Porcelain veneers resist stains better than resin veneers and better mimic the light reflecting properties of natural teeth. We will discuss the best option for you on during your initial dental examination to best suit your particular case. In some instances, a bit of the existing enamel may be removed to make a more desirable surface to apply the veneers, but this isn’t always the case. Veneers are permanent as they are bonded directly to the front of the existing teeth in a patient’s mouth.

What is Dental Bonding?

Tooth bonding is used for a variety of purposes such as correcting a tooth gap, covering discolorations, or repairing chipped and cracked teeth. Tooth bonding is dependent on the artistic ability of our professional dental team since the work is done “free hand,” without taking impressions or using a laboratory. The tooth must be color matched, sculpted and polished to produce a beautiful and natural-looking result. Our dental team uses a tooth-colored resin material and a curing light so that it bonds successfully.

During this cosmetic dentistry procedure, some of the surface enamel is removed, which allows our LuxDen cosmetic dentist to shape the composite resin to the tooth. Next, a bonding agent is applied, the composite resin is put on top of that and everything is cured with a special light. A tooth polish completes this safe and effective dental procedure.
