The Surprising Truth About Cosmetic Dentistry

A few years ago, cosmetic dentistry was considered something only the rich and famous could afford. You might be surprised to learn that, these days, cosmetic dentistry in Fairfax can be both effective and affordable. 

Here are few cosmetic dental treatments you can easily fit into your budget.

Tooth-Colored Fillings and Dental Bonding

Your dentist utilizes a versatile material called composite resin for tooth-colored fillings. Composite can be custom shaded to match your tooth and easily molded to fill in your cavity and bond directly to your tooth. This material makes your filling both aesthetic and durable.

Composite is also an excellent material for a cosmetic procedure called dental bonding. Your Fairfax cosmetic dentist will bond composite directly to your tooth, and it can eliminate several of the same problems that veneers can fix, like chipped teeth, tooth size discrepancies, and filling in gaps and spaces between teeth. Dental bonding is typically less expensive than porcelain veneers.

Professional Teeth Whitening

Probably the quickest and most affordable cosmetic dental procedure is teeth whitening. Better yet, you can choose to do it either in the comfort of your own home or at your dental office for immediate results.

Professional teeth whitening with your dentist is safe and effective, and you might be surprised at the results. Many patients tell us that a simple teeth whitening treatment in Fairfax can take years off of their appearance.
