How is a Smile Beautified?
Though beauty is an individual’s perception, studies show that there are certain factors of teeth, gums and lips which can be modified to make a smile attractive. The length, width and proportions of teeth, their alignment, the color of teeth and the amount of gums visible play a vital role in the attractiveness of a smile. When there are esthetic problems with teeth and gums, the smile may turn out to be less interesting. Following are some of the common esthetic issues addressed through cosmetic dentistry procedures.
- Chipped tooth
- Discolored teeth

- Misaligned teeth
- Gummy smile
- Gaps between teeth
There are a number of cosmetic procedures which helps dentists address these issues. The choice of a particular procedure depends on the suitability and needs of the patient.

Teeth Whitening
The color of our teeth depends on many factors which include how well we maintain hygiene, food habits and genetics. Teeth whitening is performed to clear stain from the porous enamel layer of teeth and brighten the smile.

It is performed to reshape misshapen or chipped teeth and beautify smile. Tooth colored restorative material is used to reshape teeth. The procedure is complete in a single visit.
Dental Veneers
These are thin shells of porcelain which are used to reshape teeth. These shells can bring about a major transformation in the smile by addressing issues such as discoloration, shortened teeth, chipped teeth, gaps between teeth and others.
Dental Crowns
With the use of dental crowns, misshapen and severely decayed teeth can be restored to enhance the smile. With the advancement of technology crowns can now be produced in a single visit. The porcelain crowns that are produced using current dental technology are highly accurate and look very natural.
Laser Dentistry
We use lasers at our office in Linden NJ to bring about modifications in the soft gum tissues. When a patient has a gummy smile, the laser can be used to modify the gum-line and bring about an aesthetic change in the appearance of teeth.
Tooth Colored Fillings
Dental fillings are restorative materials that are used to provide strength and aid functionality of decayed tooth. The fillings are custom-made to match the natural color of teeth. This gives patients the confidence to smile openly.
