What is Cosmetic Dentistry?


Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and overall smile. While general and restorative dentistry aim to restore function and oral health, cosmetic treatments go a step further by enhancing aesthetics. Many cosmetic procedures are also restorative in nature, meaning they provide both beauty and function for long-term results.

Cosmetic dentistry may involve color correction, reshaping, alignment improvements, or repairing dental damage. Our practice uses modern technology and materials to create natural-looking, durable results designed to complement your facial features and lifestyle.

What Are the Most Popular Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments?


At The Dentist On Boones Ferry, we offer a wide range of cosmetic procedures for our patients. Below are three of the most sought-after cosmetic treatments.

Teeth Whitening


Professional teeth whitening is one of the fastest and most effective ways to enhance your smile. Over time, teeth can become discolored. Discoloration can happen as a result of aging, consuming certain pigmented foods, drinks like coffee, tea, and wine, tobacco use, and even some medications.

In-office whitening treatments deliver noticeable results in just a single visit. We use professional-grade solutions that brighten teeth several shades. We also offer take-home kits with custom-fitted trays, allowing you to whiten your teeth comfortably and safely on your own schedule. Professional teeth whitening is quicker, safer, and offers better results than generic over-the-counter products found in the grocery store.

Veneers


Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth to instantly improve their appearance. Veneers are ideal for correcting:
•  Chipped or cracked teeth
•  Discoloration that doesn't respond to whitening
•  Uneven or misshapen teeth
•  Small gaps between teeth
•  Mild alignment issues

Veneers are custom-crafted for a natural look and feel. They can completely transform your smile in just a few appointments. Veneers are known for their durability and natural appearance. They are a beautiful way to streamline your smile.

Dental Crowns


Cosmetic dental crowns are used to cover and protect teeth that have become damaged, worn, or discolored. Unlike restorative crowns, which focus solely on function, cosmetic crowns are carefully crafted to blend in with surrounding teeth and enhance your smile.

Dental crowns may be recommended when a tooth is too damaged for a filling or veneer but still strong enough to avoid extraction. Materials like porcelain or ceramic ensure an aesthetically pleasing, long-lasting solution.

What Are the Benefits of Getting Cosmetic Dentistry?


Choosing cosmetic dentistry is more than a matter of vanity, it can also have a profound impact on your overall well-being. Some of the top benefits of cosmetic dentistry include:
•  Improved confidence - A more attractive smile can lead to greater self-esteem in both personal and professional settings.
•  Better oral health - Addressing cosmetic concerns often includes correcting alignment and restoring damaged teeth, which can improve function and hygiene.
•  Long-lasting results - Modern cosmetic procedures are designed to be durable and resistant to stains and wear.
•  Personalized care - Our cosmetic treatments are tailored to meet your unique needs, ensuring natural-looking, flattering results.
•  Motivation to maintain oral hygiene - Many patients feel more motivated to take care of their teeth after investing in their smile.

Additional Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures Available


In addition to the most common cosmetic treatments, The Dentist On Boones Ferry offers several other services to help you achieve your ideal smile:
•  Cosmetic bonding - A quick way to repair minor chips, cracks, and gaps using tooth-colored composite resin.
•  Invisalign® clear aligners - A discreet orthodontic solution for correcting crooked teeth, spacing issues, and bite problems.
•  Gum contouring - Reshape uneven or excessive gum tissue for a more balanced, symmetrical smile.
•  Tooth-colored fillings - Restore decayed teeth without the noticeable appearance of metal amalgam.

Our cosmetic dentistry team in Lake Oswego, OR, will work with you to determine which procedures align with your goals, oral health, and lifestyle.

Common Misconceptions About Cosmetic Dentistry


There are many myths surrounding cosmetic dentistry that can cause hesitation for patients considering treatment. Let's clear up a few of the most common ones:
•  "It's only about looks." - While aesthetics are a key focus, many cosmetic treatments also improve function, alignment, and oral health.
•  "The results look fake." - Modern cosmetic dentistry uses advanced materials and techniques to create natural-looking, customized results.
•  "It's painful or invasive." - Most cosmetic procedures are minimally invasive, and we offer gentle techniques to ensure your comfort.
•  "Cosmetic dentistry is only for celebrities or public figures." - While it's true that many public figures invest in their smiles, cosmetic dentistry is accessible and beneficial for anyone who wants to improve their appearance and confidence. Everyday patients of all ages and backgrounds choose cosmetic treatments to enhance their smiles.

Our team will walk you through each option and help you make informed decisions that suit your comfort level and goals.
