COMMON DENTAL
PROCEDURES
A smile is a beautiful thing and a healthy smile contributes
more than just beauty; it has a vital role in maintaining a
good overall health. Every day dental patients ask us about
options for improving the health and appearance of their
smile. Dental procedures and especially cosmetic dental
procedures have improved over the last 10 to 15 years. As
a result, there’s an array of affordable options of dental
procedures for common people. There is a wide range of
choices available for improving the health and appearance
of your smile.
If you’ve thought about improving your smile, this slide can
help you learn about the latest techniques in dentistry and
cosmetic dental procedures.
Are you worried about your smile?
Composite White Fillings
Composite white fillings are a dental filling which repairs
cavity or hole in a tooth caused by tooth decay. Dental
fillings are still the most common dental procedure in
dentistry today. Composite resin fillings are tooth colored
and are adhesively bonded to the walls of the teeth. Metal
fillings made of metallic amalgam are anchored in a tooth
by drilling an undercut beneath the surface of the cavity for
retention of the filling. Metal fillings darken teeth and are
very noticeable when you smile and most of the people
consider metal fillings unattractive. Today’s composite
fillings come in natural white shades that blend with the
color of your teeth and are not notified when you talk, smile
or laugh.
Crowns
Crowns are dental restorations that protect damaged,
cracked or broken teeth. A dental crown is often referred to
as caps, sit over the entire part of the tooth that lies above
the gum line which is used to cover or “cap” a damaged
tooth. In addition to strengthening the damaged tooth, a
crown can be used to improve the tooth’s appearance,
shape or alignment. In the early days, porcelain crowns
were fused to metal and were less natural looking. Today,
all-porcelain crowns are more durable, comfortable and
much more attractive.
Teeth Whitening or Bleaching
Teeth naturally darken with age; however, staining may be
caused by various foods and beverages such as coffee, tea
and berries, some drugs, smoking, or a trauma to a tooth.
There are various teeth whitening options available,
including in-office and at-home bleaching. Professional
whitening gel often reduces or eliminates tooth stains and
discoloration that occurs over time.
Porcelain Veneers or Veneers
A dental veneer is a thin layer of porcelain or strong, thin
pieces of ceramic or resin material that are bonded to the
teeth. Veneers allow dentists to change the color, size and
shape of teeth for a more aesthetic smile. Veneers are
used to repair chipped, decayed or stained teeth and may
help in closing gaps between teeth. Porcelain veneers are
an excellent option for people with tooth discoloration or
heavy stains that do not lighten with professional tooth
whitening or bleaching. Dental veneers are custom made;
the thickness of the veneer and the amount of tooth
reduction necessary varies with each patient’s specific
needs.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is also called a fixed partial denture and
may be recommended if you’re missing one or more teeth.
A fixed partial denture can be placed at the location of a
missing tooth and is connected by crowns to adjacent
teeth. Bridges are sometimes better alternatives to
removable partial dentures for comfort as well as aesthetic
appeal.
Tooth Contouring
• Dental contouring is also known as tooth reshaping
which can be used to correct chipped teeth, crooked
teeth, cracked teeth or even overlapped teeth.
Contouring can also help adjust the shape, length or
position of your teeth.
Dental Implants
• Dental implants are an excellent example of new dental
technology and are often an ideal solution for replacing
missing teeth. A dental implant serves as a tooth root
and anchors a replacement tooth, bridge or denture to
your jaw. One of the most common uses of mini dental
implants is stabilization of dentures. When dental
implants are restored with porcelain crowns, they look
and feel like natural teeth.
Gum Surgery
• Gum surgery is used to alter visible gum tissue to
improve the appearance of your smile. Sometimes the
gums recede with age or as a result of gum disease or
periodontal disease. Gum recession can create the
appearance of unnaturally long teeth. Gum contouring is
also used to create a symmetrical or even gum line.
Many of them simply ignore their teeth and they will get
panic and tensed after getting diseased. This is the mindset
people have to change and get rid of it from your lives.
Giving importance to your dental care is one of the
important things you have to do in your day to day life. Your
dentist and dental hygienist will evaluate the health of your
gums and teeth. Selecting the best institutes for studying
the dentistry course also plays an important role in the
development of an efficient dentist.

dental care
