Cosmetic Dentistry primarily focuses on the aesthetic aspects of a smile such as a shape, size, color, position, and alignment of the teeth. Modern cosmetic dentistry can help you have a flawless smile. These dentistry treatments are more about enhancing the appearance of your teeth, gums, and smile rather than their function.

Cosmetic Procedures at Ygnacio Dental
Cosmetic dentistry is composed of a wide range of cosmetic treatments, from minor fixes to major surgeries.
Teeth Whitening
This is one of the most standard cosmetic dental treatments. The teeth become stained or discolored due to smoking, tobacco use, and colorful foods and drinks intake. Tooth whitening is an affordable treatment that can whiten the teeth eight times brighter than their previous color.
Dental Veneers
They are thin plastic shells made from resin, ceramic, or porcelain. They can be designed to match the neighboring teeth of a patient. Veneers can conceal numerous cosmetic imperfections, such as cracks, chips, fractured enamel, and gaps between teeth.
Dental Crowns
These tooth-shaped caps can be secured over a damaged or decayed tooth. A crown helps keep a compromised tooth from cracking or hides a stained or misshaped tooth.
Dental Implants
Implants help replace lost teeth due to injury or decay. It consists of a titanium root fixed and allowed to fuse into the jawbone. Once the dental implant is attached correctly, a crown is secured on its top to match the existing natural teeth.
Dental Bonding
Dental bondings can help repair minor cosmetic dental problems such as cracks, chips, or misshapen teeth. Bondings are composed of a putty-like tooth-colored material that is hardened with a special light.
