Dental cosmetics
According to the patient’s needs, dental cosmetics refers to teeth cleaning, whitening, veneering. We are interested in the impeccable look of the teeth, not just at the surface: we are interested in teeth health, for the veneers to look natural and to last in time.
Dental scaling is a non-invasive hygienic procedure with the purpose of removing tartar from the tooth surfaces. The scaling can be done only in the dental office and it is recommended to be done about twice a year. The first signs of tartar accumulation are gingival inflammation, gum bleeding (both at brushing and in contact with rougher foods), but also halitosis. The scaling is accompanied by air flow and professional brushing to give the teeth their natural shine.
Teeth whitening is the simplest and fastest method to give patients a whiter and healthier smile. Teeth whitening is a non-invasive procedure, being one of the most requested dental treatments. Still, it is recommended only to certain patients: to those with an adequate oral hygiene, to those who do not present teeth sensitivity and to those who do not have fillings on the frontal teeth. Teeth whitening effects last about 1-3 years, depending on each patient.
The patients must be made aware of the fact that teeth whitening does not only have an effect on natural teeth, but that the fillings and the crowns will not change their color as well – leading to an unaesthetic result.
A minimally-invasive alternative to teeth whitening are veneers, which represent a permanent solution in the matter of changing the color or the shape of the teeth.
