When you’re not happy with the appearance of your smile, it takes a toll in many ways. You may feel self-conscious or embarrassed about talking or smiling in front of other people, which diminishes your confidence and affects your personal and professional relationships. Did you know that it could also affect your oral health? For example, if you have teeth that are crooked or misaligned, they may be harder for you to keep clean, which puts you at a higher risk for tooth decay or periodontal disease. The good news is that cosmetic dentistry offers many great options for improving and enhancing your smile. Learn how cosmetic dentistry in Queens not only improves your confidence but also your quality of life.
Teeth Whitening
One of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to make a huge impact on your smile is to whiten your teeth. This procedure removes staining or discoloration and leaves your teeth whiter and brighter. Dr. Richard Gochman offers patients in Queens both an in-office whitening option and take-home trays to choose from.
For patients who seek immediate results, the Zoom! Whitening will leave you shades lighter in only one short office appointment. Patients who want to whiten at their leisure based on their own schedule will appreciate our take-home whitening system. Take-home trays give you the ability to update your whitening any time you like, before that next big event.
Porcelain Veneers
Dental veneers are thin shells made of porcelain that are custom-designed to fit over your natural tooth structure. Veneers can be used to repair one tooth or many teeth to enhance the appearance of your smile. Veneers repair small fractures and chipping, fill in gaps, and they also cover stains or discoloration.
Invisalign
Invisalign is a unique orthodontic system designed to straighten crooked or misaligned teeth discreetly. Instead of traditional metal brackets, Invisalign uses clear plastic aligners that apply gentle pressure to move teeth over time gradually. Because aligners are removable, Invisalign doesn’t have any of the diet constraints that traditional braces impose. You’ll also be able to brush and floss your teeth as you normally would so your home care routine doesn’t suffer.
