Aesthetic dentistry is a specialized area of dentistry focused on improving the appearance of a patient's smile through various cosmetic procedures:
- Teeth whitening: This popular procedure uses whitening agents to make your teeth whiter and brighter. Both professional in-office procedures and home whitening systems are available.
Bonding: This minimally invasive treatment involves applying a composite material directly to your teeth to correct minor imperfections, such as cracks, chips or gaps between teeth. - Veneers: These thin, custom veneers are placed on the front surfaces of your teeth to improve their color, shape and size. Veneers can effectively hide stains, cracks and other defects.
Smile corrections: Through a combination of techniques such as re-contouring, veneers and aligners (such as Invisalign) I can help achieve a more balanced and symmetrical smile.
In addition to aesthetic dentistry, SF DENT also performs aesthetic manipulations:
Botulinum toxin (Botox) and dermal fillers are popular non-invasive cosmetic procedures that can help improve the appearance of the face by reducing wrinkles and adding volume. As a specialist in cosmetic dentistry, I can offer the following services related to Botox and fillers:
Botulinum toxin (Botox):
- Forehead lines: Botox injections can help reduce the appearance of horizontal forehead lines caused by muscle movement.
- Wrinkles around the eyes: Botox can help reduce the appearance of crow's feet wrinkles at the corners of the eyes.
- Wrinkles around the mouth: Botox injections can help reduce the appearance of vertical lines between the eyebrows and “bar code” folds around the mouth.
Dermal fillers:
- Cheek Volume: Fillers can be used to contour and add volume to the cheeks, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
- Nasolabial folds: Fillers can help fill in the folds that run from the nose to the mouth, creating a smoother skin surface.
- Lips: Fillers can be used to increase the size and fullness of the lips, as well as to correct asymmetry.
- Cheekbones: Injecting fillers into the cheekbones can create a more prominent and three-dimensional appearance to the face.
- Under the eyes: Fillers can be used to fill in dark circles and sunken areas under the eyes, providing a more rested look.
