What is Cosmetic Dentistry?two women with aesthetically pleasing white smiles

Cosmetic dentistry is a branch of dental care that focuses on improving the appearance of a person’s teeth, gums, and overall smile. Unlike general dentistry, which primarily deals with oral health and function, cosmetic dentistry emphasizes aesthetic enhancements. This field combines art and science to create beautiful, natural-looking smiles that boost confidence and self-esteem.

While the primary goal of cosmetic dentistry treatments is to enhance appearance, many procedures also have functional benefits, improving bite alignment, speech, and dental health. As techniques and materials continue to advance, cosmetic dentistry offers increasingly natural-looking and long-lasting results, making it a popular choice for those seeking to perfect their smiles.

Our Cosmetic Services

Porcelain Veneers

Dental veneers are thin, natural-looking porcelain shells affixed to the front surfaces of your teeth to conceal aesthetic flaws. This cosmetic treatment is a great solution for patients wanting to correct any number of minor cosmetic imperfections. 

Porcelain veneers transform the color or shape of your teeth. Our cosmetic dentist, Dr. Ambis, typically recommends veneers to correct uneven, crooked, chipped, misshapen, or discolored teeth.

Professional Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening treatments can help brighten your smile. This quick and easy cosmetic dental treatment enhances the whiteness of your smile and boosts your confidence with stronger whitening agents than store-bought solutions. Professional whitening also penetrates deeper and lasts longer than over-the-counter teeth whitening treatments.

Cosmetic Bonding

Dental bonding is an affordable cosmetic solution for repairing crooked, chipped, and overlapped teeth. Our Ithaca cosmetic dentist will use a tooth-colored resin to correct cosmetic flaws in your teeth for a beautiful smile. The procedure is quick and non-invasive, allowing you to leave our office on the same day with stunning results.

White Fillings 

Cavities can take a toll on your tooth’s bite and can slowly result in an exposed root if not treated right away. Also known as composite fillings, tooth-colored fillings can restore your smile’s appearance and function, as well as protect against harmful bacteria.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns can be used for both cosmetic and restorative purposes, as they can instantly restore a tooth’s function and appearance. Crowns restore the function and appearance of chipped, cracked, or otherwise damaged teeth. A dental crown makes it easier to chew, speak, and smile. They also provide strength to a structurally flawed tooth or after root canal treatment, so you won’t have to worry about extraction.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are titanium fixtures inserted into your jawbone that serve as an artificial tooth root, providing a stable solution to tooth loss. Thanks to osseointegration, where the implant fuses with the rest of the jawbone, implant restorations are permanent solutions to missing teeth.

Enamel Recontouring

Enamel recontouring involves the removal of small amounts of tooth enamel to change a tooth’s length, shape, or surface. This procedure can improve someone’s appearance by creating more harmony and balance in their smile.
