At Dentistry by Angela Britt, we offer a number of cosmetic dentistry treatments that can bring about any change you would love to see in your smile. When we meet with a patient and they express that they are interested in improving or changing their smile, we examine the state of their oral health. We then speak with the patient to see what their thoughts are and the direction they would like to go with the appearance of their teeth. Some patients may have an idea of what their dream smile looks like, but before that happens, we have to make some improvements to their oral health, such as a treatment to restore the function of the teeth. One popular request from patients is that they want to have a uniform smile that rivals that of their favorite movie star or celebrity. For these patients, we typically recommend veneers.

Cosmetic Dentistry, Dental Articles, Dentistry by Angela Britt, Restorative Dentistry

Tooth damage comes in a variety of conditions, including chipped, cracked or broken teeth, tooth decay, and even total tooth loss. Dental crowns are one treatment that can help restore the tooth or replace it. A crown is a tooth-shaped structure, like a cap, that is placed over a tooth. The “cap” covers the tooth to improve its appearance, restore its shape and function or sit on top of an implant as a replacement tooth.
