A Guide to Cosmetic Dental Treatments: What Are Your Options?

Whether you're preparing for a big event, looking to boost your confidence, or simply want to improve your overall appearance, cosmetic dentistry offers a wide range of solutions to help you achieve the smile you've always wanted. Let this be your guide to the common forms of cosmetic dental treatment.

Teeth Whitening

One of the most common cosmetic dental treatments is teeth whitening. Over time, teeth can become stained from coffee, tea, wine, smoking, or simply aging. Professional whitening treatments, such as Pola in-office whitening or take-home kits like Pola Day and Pola Nite, can dramatically brighten your smile in just one session or over a few days. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional-grade solutions are safer, more effective, and longer-lasting.

Dental Veneers

If you’re dealing with chipped, uneven, discoloured, or gapped teeth, dental veneers may be the ideal solution. Veneers are ultra-thin ceramic shells that are custom-made to fit over the front surface of your teeth. Smile Design and Lumineers, which require little to no prep, provide a natural look while enhancing the shape, size, and colour of your teeth. Veneers can last 10 to 20 years with proper care, making them a long-term investment in your smile.

Dental Crowns and Bridges

Dental crowns are used to restore teeth that are broken, heavily filled, or have undergone root canal treatment. There are a variety of crown materials available, including porcelain, Zirconia, and same-day ceramic options like E-Max and CEREC. If you’re missing one or more teeth, dental bridges can fill the gap using adjacent teeth as anchors. This not only improves your appearance but also helps maintain proper bite alignment and oral function.

Invisalign® Clear Aligners

For adults who want straighter teeth without the hassle of traditional braces, Invisalign® is a discreet and comfortable option. These clear, removable aligners gradually shift your teeth into place. At Cosmo Dental Centre, we provide a smile simulation so you can preview your results before starting treatment. Invisalign® is ideal for correcting mild to moderate misalignments and is especially popular among adults seeking a subtle solution.

Dental Implants

Missing teeth can affect both your appearance and oral health. Dental implants are a permanent solution that replaces the root of a missing tooth with a titanium post, topped with a crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth. Implants help preserve jawbone density and prevent neighbouring teeth from shifting.
