Cosmetic dentistry
A person’s smile is often the first thing people notice. A beautiful smile can play a big role in boosting self confidence as it creates a positive first impression and helps build trust and establish connections. Smiling has been shown to trigger the release of endorphins, which can improve mood and reduce stress, contributing to both improved emotional and physical health. Simply put, a nice smile allows you to lead a happier, healthier and more confident life. At North Shore Prosthodontics, we are here to help you achieve this!
Cosmetic dentistry can be used
To treat concerns such a discoloured, broken, misaligned, chipped, worn or missing teeth, gummy smiles and undesirable gaps. Treatment modalities can range from something as simple as tooth whitening to having porcelain or composite veneers and crowns placed. A crown is a protective cap that fits over an existing tooth, restoring its shape, size, and strength. A veneer, on the other hand, is a thin shell bonded to the tooth’s surface, improving its appearance and giving you a beautifully restored smile.
