Teeth Whitening or Bleaching

• Bleaching is a common and popular chemical
  process used to whiten teeth. Some people get
  their teeth bleached to make stains disappear,
  while other just want a whiter shade.
• Discoloration occurs in the enamel and can be
  caused by medication, coffee, tea and cigarettes.
  Discoloration also can be hereditary or due
  simply to getting older.
• Typically, whitening at home takes two to four
  weeks, depending on the desired shade you wish to
  achieve. Whitening in the office may call for one
  or more 45-minute to one-hour visits to your
  dentist's office.

Tooth Bonding

• Bonding is tooth-colored material used to fill in
  gaps or change the color of teeth. Requiring a
  single office visit, bonding lasts several years.
  Bonding is more susceptible to staining or
  chipping than other forms of restoration. When
  teeth are chipped or slightly decayed, bonded
  composite resins may be the material of choice.
  Bonding also is used as a tooth-colored filling
  for small cavities. Additionally, it can be used
  to close spaces between teeth or cover the entire
  outside surface of a tooth to change its color
  and shape.

7
Veneers

• Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain or plastic
  placed over the front teeth to change the color
  or shape of your teeth. Veneers are used on teeth
  with uneven surfaces or are chipped, discolored,
  oddly shaped, unevenly spaced or crooked. Little
  or no anesthesia is needed. Veneers are used to
  treat some of the same problems as bonding.
• Porcelain veneers require more than one visit
  because they are fabricated in a laboratory.
  Veneers have a longer life expectancy and color
  stability than bonding.

Zirconia Crown

• Zirconia Crown is very popular in all ceramic
  crowns. This crown is worn to improve the
  appearance of the tooth which has become stained
  or disfigured for a long time. They are very easy
  to wear and long lasting.
• Zirconium crowns and bridges can be used anywhere
  in your mouth because of its strength. It could
  be resist the biting pressure of the front teeth
  like beck teeth grinding.
• It is so close to look likes your natural teeth
  so it can be used without any dental work.
• It can be fixed by using regular dental cement.
• It is really a strong substance that can endure
  wear and tear of regular use. You will not find
  any differences with natural looks and it
  reflects light the same way. If your new crown
  keep in front of the normal light than it could
  be refluxed the light.

Inlays and onlays

• Inlays and onlays, also called indirect fillings,
  are made from gold, porcelain, or composite
  materials and fill decayed or damaged teeth.
  Dental fillings are molded into place during an
  office visit however, inlays and onlays are
  created in a dental laboratory and bonded into
  place by your dentist. The filling is called an
  inlay when the material is bonded within the
  center of a tooth it is called an onlay when
  the filling includes one or more points of the
  tooth or covers the biting surface. Inlays and
  onlays preserve as much healthy tooth as possible
  and are an alternative to crowns.

  success. However, if you are embarrassed about
  your smile, you may be holding yourself back.

Risks of Cosmetic Dentistry

• The decision to go forward with a cosmetic
  dentistry for smile makeover is risky because of
  the cost and the potential for botched results,
  but the field has improved so much that results
  are highly guaranteed. The process of covering
  your teeth with porcelain veneers costs several
  thousand dollars, and while the results might be
  stunning, many people dont think a perfect smile
  is worth that much. The trick is to go for a
  combination of several lesser procedures.

Cost of cosmetic dentistry

• Cosmetic dentistry can involve many different
  areas of dentistry including orthodontics,
  periodontics, implants, crowns, veneers, and
  whitening. The cost will depend on what your
  goals are, as well as where you live. The best
  first step is a comprehensive exam and
  personalized consultation with a dentist you
  trust.

An Overview of Cosmetic dentistry

• At present, the scope of cosmetic dentistry is
  very wide and covers the following special areas
  of dentistry bonding, tooth whitening,
  restorations of tooth color, dental implants,
  porcelain veneers and dental fillings. Each of
  the above treatments further has its own
  subdivisions in terms of special techniques
  employed and equipment that is used. It is also
  important to note that there are new branches of
  cosmetic dentistry that have emerged in the
  recent years. Since cosmetic dentistry is an
  integral part of dentistry and can broadly be
  classified as a branch of the same, then by
  extension, it can be said that new branches of
  dentistry have been formed directly out of the
  development of cosmetic dentistry. Two of the new
  branches of dentistry that are worth mentioning
  at this point are endodontics and orthodontics.
  The people that are trained in these two branches
  and who practice the same are referred to as
  endodontists and orthodontists respectively.
  Contrary to what most people are likely to
  believe, given the newness of these branches, not
  ever dentist automatically qualifies to be called
  a cosmetic dentist. Before one can officially be
  allowed to use the title, they have to undergo
  full training on the same as a special
  postgraduate study course.
