By: Headfirst Whitening Tooth whitening is generally done with different types of hydrogen peroxide. In one method, carbamide peroxide, in the form of a gel, is put into a tray that is custom-fit to your bite. The tray usually stays in place for one to four hours. Carbamide peroxide whitens your teeth by releasing oxygen, which removes the discolorations on your teeth. This treatment is safe and popular because it is effective. Because of its ease, you can usually use the tray and gel at home, with a few office visits for check-ups. Another type of tooth whitening method, called Power Bleaching or “Zoom”, uses much more concentrated hydrogen peroxide that is carefully applied to your teeth. This solution is then exposed to a special light, which speeds the whitening process. Because this treatment is so effective, it is usually used on patients with severe tooth discoloration. Depending on habits and the extent of staining, these treatments can continue for seven to ten years. Your dentist can help you decide with treatment process is best for you.

Bonding can be used to replace metal fillings, whiten your smile, or reshape teeth. Tooth bonding is done with a composite resin mixed with silicon dioxide (a type of glass) in order to match the color of teeth. Bonding is a fairly quick process, and usually only takes 10-15 minutes per tooth depending on your specific needs. The procedure is painless and should be able to be completed in one office visit. To begin, the dentist will treat the surface of your tooth with a mild acid, which allows the composite resin to bind to your tooth. Next, the denist will apply several layers of the composite resin and use a light source to set the material. Finally, the dentist will shape, smooth, and polish the resin. The new surface will look just like a natural tooth, although more concentrated flossing may be required closer to the gum line. Composite resin does wear slightly faster than metal fillings, and can be stained or chipped just like natural teeth. Bonded teeth will last five to 10 years before needed a touch-up or replacement. Veneers Veneers are made of porcelain that is sculpted to fit over the front of your teeth. This makes them perfect for fixing more extreme dental issues like discoloration, chipping, pitting, crooked or malformed teeth, and filling gaps. Veneers can also be used to create more upper lip fullness by placing them on the four front teeth. Veneers are preferable to crowns or caps because very little tooth surface is removed. Veneer placement is usually a two-visit procedure. During the first office visit the dentist will match your tooth color and file the surface of the teeth slightly. The dentist will also take an impression of the teeth and fit them with temporary veneers. The permanent veneers are created in a dental laboratory from the impression, and sent back to your dental office. On the second visit, the permanent veneers will be cemented directly on your teeth, then polished to appear completely natural. Veneers do last longer than bonding, but it is a longer process. Veneers are also stronger, do not stain, and will last up to 15 years. Crowns Crowns are similar to veneers because they attach directly to your teeth, but crowns cover the tooth completely, which protects your natural teeth and will correct alignment problems. Crowns can be used to replace teeth that have undergone a root canal, are severely eroded, or crooked. Crowns are necessary for dental issues that require greater strength and perfectly matched teeth. Crowns are made of ceramic, or a ceramic and metal mix, and are created to perfectly match the adjacent teeth. Having crowns applied is a two or three office visit procedure First, an impression of your teeth is made so that the crown will perfectly fit in the space and match up with the adjacent teeth. A temporary crown can be created in the dental office while the permanent crown is being created in a dental laboratory. Crowns can be used to create a better connection for fixed bridges or partial dentures. To properly maintain your crown, careful brushing and regular flossing is required. Well cared for crowns last longer than many other dental treatments. For more information contact http://PlymouthDentist.co Inlays and Onlays Inlays and onlays replace silver fillings. They are made from composite resin to match yoru tooth color, porcelain, or even gold. They are specially placed in order to be undetectable and match the surface of your natural tooth. The best place for an inlay is on a cavity on the chewing (or occlusal) surface and one of the sides of the teeth (proximal surface) which is cavity-free. An onlay covers the entire proximal surface, and is designed to protect the cusps of the tooth from fracture. An only is the best treatment for protecting large surface areas. This treatment involves local anesthesia to remove the old fillings. The dentist will take an impression, and the inlay or onlay is created and cemented directly onto the tooth. The inlay or onlay will perfectly match the tooth. This procedure usually requires two or three office visits, but will not need replacement for many years.

Bridges are made of porcelain or composite resin and used to replace missing teeth, restore your natural bite, an create a beautiful smile. Creating and placing a bridge is an extensive process. There are two types of bridges – fixed and removable. Fixed bridges are attached to neighboring teeth and the ceramic teeth replace any missing teeth. Removable bridges are used in more complex dental treatments to restore support and function. An impression must be made in order to create these bridges from ceramic or a combination of ceramic and metal. The ceramic teeth will be created to replace missing teeth and perfectly fit the contours of your mouth. Multiple office visits will be required to perfectly adjust the fit of the bridge. They also require careful cleaning and flossing. Removable bridges can also be soaked in a cleaning solution in order to remove plaque and bacteria.
