Choosing between your options
Most people come in with a specific thing they'd like to change rather than a treatment already in mind, which is the right way round. Whitening lifts staining but won't change the shape of a tooth. Veneers reshape and cover, but they don't lighten the teeth around them. Sometimes the answer is a combination, done in a particular order.
If whitening is part of the plan, it goes first. Veneers are matched to the shade of your teeth at the time they're made, and whitening won't lighten them afterward, so doing it the other way round leaves you with a mismatch.
Cosmetic work also assumes the teeth underneath are healthy. If there's decay, a cracked tooth, or gum disease to deal with, we sort that out before any cosmetic treatment starts. Dr. Jas Tuli will tell you if that applies to you at your consultation.
What a cosmetic consultation involves
The first appointment is mostly listening. You tell us what bothers you when you look in the mirror, and we look at whether that's something worth treating and what it would take. Sometimes the honest answer is that the change would be smaller than you're picturing, or that leaving it alone is reasonable. We'd rather say that up front than after you've paid for treatment.
We check the health of the teeth and gums first, take photographs, and often use the iTero scanner to capture the shape of your teeth without impression trays. From there we'll walk you through what each option would involve, roughly how long it takes, and what it costs, then give you a written estimate to take away and think about.
Cosmetic treatment is usually considered elective, so it's often not covered by dental insurance or the Canadian Dental Care Plan. Coverage varies between plans, and our team can check your benefits with you. Serenity Dental offers direct billing to most insurance providers and interest-free payment plans if you'd rather spread the cost.
FAQs About Cosmetic Dentistry
What is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dentistry treatment that can result in whiter teeth. Teeth darken because they absorb stains from everyday food and drink, such as coffee, tea, or wine. Whitening allows you to regain a beautiful, healthy smile with minimal effort by using safe, fast, and effective techniques. If you are looking for teeth whitening in Beaumont, contact Serenity Dental today!
What are the benefits of teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening can remove stains and discoloration that affect the appearance of your teeth, enhancing how white your smile looks overall. Teeth whitening maximizes the aesthetic appeal of your smile by brightening it over time. Having whiter teeth will give you a more youthful, refreshed appearance, giving you more confidence in your smile.
Teeth whitening can be performed in a single appointment, which means you can get your teeth whitened in just one visit. It’s fast, effective, and a great improvement to your smile.
What are porcelain veneers?
Porcelain veneers are a treatment that replaces the tooth’s natural tooth surface with a thin custom-made shell. Porcelain teeth can mimic the look of natural teeth and also make a smile whiter by removing discoloration. Porcelain veneers are stronger than composite resin veneers, last longer, and do not stain or change colour. If you are looking for porcelain veneers in Beaumont, contact Serenity Dental today!
How are porcelain veneers done?
It typically takes two appointments to apply porcelain veneers. At the first appointment, your cosmetic dentist will remove a thin layer of enamel from your teeth. This process makes room for the veneers. A mold of your teeth is then taken and used to fabricate your porcelain veneers. The dentist will provide you with temporary veneers that you will wear until your porcelain veneers are ready. The temporary veneers are fragile and can come loose easily, so they should be treated with care.
The second appointment involves placing the new veneers on your teeth. The dentist will apply a mild chemical to the teeth to make them slightly rougher. Doing this makes the surface of the tooth rough and helps the porcelain veneer bond to the tooth. The veneers will then be applied one at a time using composite resin cement.
The result is a beautiful and natural-looking smile. Porcelain veneers can correct stained teeth, crooked or crowded teeth, chipped or broken front teeth, as well as gaps between the front teeth.
What are the benefits of porcelain veneers?
Veneers are a perfect solution for fixing broken, chipped, or discolored teeth. They can even help to transform your smile if you have severely misaligned or crowded teeth.
Porcelain veneers are also an excellent solution for patients who cannot get the results they want through whitening. The veneers will make your teeth appear whiter by removing stains and discoloration, in addition to changing tooth shape or size. Porcelain veneers do not stain like composite resin veneers.
Another advantage of porcelain veneers is strength. Porcelain teeth are more durable than composite resin and can last for many years with proper care. Composite resins do not offer this level of sturdiness, which means they may chip or wear over time.
How does take-home whitening work?
We provide professional take-home whitening kits that include custom trays and professional-strength whitening gel. You'll wear the trays as directed over several days or weeks, allowing your smile to brighten gradually while minimizing sensitivity.
What is the difference between professional take-home whitening and store-bought whitening products?
Professional whitening kits use professional-strength whitening gel prescribed by your dentist. They generally provide more even, predictable results than over-the-counter strips or trays while reducing the risk of gum irritation.
What are composite veneers?
Composite veneers use tooth-coloured composite resin to improve the appearance of chipped, worn, stained, or slightly misaligned teeth. The material is carefully sculpted directly onto the tooth, allowing many cases to be completed in a single visit with little or no removal of natural tooth structure.
What are the benefits of composite veneers?
Composite veneers can:
- Repair chipped or worn teeth
- Improve tooth shape and symmetry
- Close small gaps between teeth
- Mask stains or discolouration
- Usually require little or no enamel removal
- Often be completed in one appointment
- Be repaired more easily if chipped
How much do porcelain veneers cost?
The average cost for porcelain veneers varies depending on the number of teeth that need to be treated and how extensive your treatment needs are. We will provide you with a detailed quote before beginning any work so you know exactly what the procedure will cost.
