Smile Therapy Glossary

Did You Know?

To enhance a person's smile, Veneers are increasingly becoming the cosmetic procedure of choice because of their life-like appearance, strength and overall beauty. Veneers are very thin porcelain restorations that are bonded to your teeth.

Veneers are used to:

• close gaps between teeth
• straighten crooked teeth (this is generally known as instant orthodontics)
• reshape teeth
• improve worn or discolored teeth

Veneers can last more than 10 to 15 years and do not stain, which makes them an attractive option for people who want a permanent bright smile. Also, the application of veneers does not require significant tooth reduction.

Bonding is a cosmetic dentistry technique that can instantly enhance a person's smile. One of the great advantages of bonding is that it can be accomplished in just one visit to the dentist.

Bonding can be used to:

• fill in gaps between teeth
• correct chipped, crooked or broken teeth
• reshape teeth

Increasingly, bonding is used to fill cavities as it provides a more esthetically pleasing look than the traditional metal fillings. It's also a good treatment of choice for instantly repairing a broken front tooth. Bonding can last five to eight years.

Crowns are caps that cover the entire tooth and are generally made of porcelain. Crowns can be used to enhance a person's overall smile. They also are the treatment of choice for patients who have fractured or broken teeth because they strengthen and protect the remaining tooth structure.

Additionally, crowns are used for:

• teeth that are sensitive
• teeth that have been weakened due to extensive decay
• teeth that have had a root canal
• teeth that are discolored

The average life span of a crown is 10 to 15 years.
