Cosmetic dental treatments can alter the entire appearance of your smile. It goes beyond just what your smile looks like – cosmetic dental treatments can improve your self-confidence and change many aspects of your life. Fortunately, when you search for a cosmetic dentist in Plantation, Florida, you’ll find Dr. Soto, DDS – a man who creates customized cosmetic dental treatment plans to help patients get the smile they want and deserve.

Possible Treatments

You’ll have a choice of different types of treatments. One option you have is dental whitening. When you choose Dr. Soto for teeth whitening, you’ll receive a Zoom! procedure. With Zoom! whitening, we will apply a hydrogen peroxide gel on your teeth. Next, we will apply light to activate the gel and enhance the whitening effects.

Your dentist may recommend a crown if you have a missing, misshaped, discolored, or broken tooth. A crown looks like a hollow tooth. Your practitioner will use dental cement to adhere it to your existing tooth. The crown consists of a material that looks similar to a natural tooth, and your dentist can alter the color to make it blend with your other teeth. A crown can be used to correct issues with the color, size, or shape of your teeth, and can repair cracked or severely damaged teeth, as well.

Veneers are a solution if your teeth are discolored, crooked, or damaged. A dentist may also recommend veneers to correct the size or shape of your teeth, as well. For a veneer, your dentist creates a shield that covers just the front of the tooth. It’s shaped to create the appearance you desire. Your dentist then adheres it to the front of the tooth.

A dental practitioner may replace missing teeth or replace severely damaged teeth with dental implants. This option consists of your dentist placing a post underneath your gums. Then, they will place a small piece on the post known as an abutment, which is where the crown will sit. The crown acts as a replacement tooth and is designed to look like a natural one.

Sometimes, you may need surgical reconstruction. This consists of various treatments like dental extractions, root canal therapy, dental crowns, bridges, and various other treatments. It’s intended to correct multiple issues like broken or missing teeth.

Deciding on a Plan for You

Dr. Soto will make sure to customize cosmetic dentistry procedures to your needs, especially if you need multiple procedures to help you achieve the smile you want. He will discuss your goals with you and evaluate your oral and overall health. You will also discuss your budget and expectations with him.

Your dentist will spend time discussing all your options with you. You will be educated on how long each option will last, in particular, when you’re choosing between different materials or different solutions for the same issue.

Once you and your dentist determine a solution, you may need to have impressions of your teeth made. Some procedures may require your dentist to send the impressions to a lab to have your restoration created. Finally, you will discuss a schedule for treatment since some cosmetic procedures have multiple steps and require more than one visit appropriately spaced out.
