Trust a Cosmetic Dentist With Your Smile Makeover

Smiling is one of the most powerful tools in our arsenal of expressions. While it may not seem like much, the act of smiling actually releases neurotransmitters that affect your brain chemistry. A smile has amazing consequences, like boosting self-esteem, helping you connect socially with others, or improving your mood! Unfortunately, not everyone feels comfortable enough with the appearance of their teeth to smile. If you feel insecure about your smile’s look, you’re less likely to smile around others or even to yourself. A cosmetic dentist, however, like Dr. Aristodemo at Happy Smiles Family Dentistry, can help you feel better about your smile. Utilizing innovative cosmetic procedures, she can enhance the appearance of your smile, boosting your confidence through the roof!

Procedures Dr. Aristodemo Provides

At Happy Smiles Family Dentistry, Dr. Aristodemo offers comprehensive cosmetic procedures that revitalize your smile. These procedures include:

• Teeth whitening: Dr. Aristodemo provides three teeth whitening options. The first is the in-office solution, which takes about 90 minutes in the chair using innovative whitening lasers. This solution provides immediate and beautiful results. The second option is customized take-home trays that she creates to fit perfectly in the contours of your mouth. You use these trays at home for about 20 minutes a day for two weeks to achieve a whiter smile. These trays are reusable and will last you for years! Finally, Dr. Aristodemo offers disposable trays that you throw away per use.
• Dental veneers: For a more dramatic and permanent enhancement, Dr. Aristodemo recommends dental veneers. These thin slivers of porcelain are custom-designed to match your ideal shape, size, length, and color. With dental veneers, Dr. Aristodemo has the ability to provide you with a perfect smile that you can wear proudly! To place veneers, she uses a minimally invasive procedure to prepare your teeth. When you decide your smile is perfect, she cements the veneers in place. However, it is important to note that this procedure is irreversible.
• Smile makeover: Utilizing a combination of different cosmetic procedures, Dr. Aristodemo provides a comprehensive treatment plan to perfect your smile down to every last detail! By correcting issues like cracks, chips, gaps, and stains, she can create a beautiful smile that fits your preferences and suits your facial structure. A smile makeover is a complete transformation of your smile, allowing you to smile confidently.

Understanding a Smile Makeover

The smile makeover process begins with a consultation. At this initial appointment, Dr. Aristodemo will discuss your smile goals, perform a thorough dental examination, and take an X-ray to create a custom treatment plan.

This treatment plan is tailored to your needs, utilizing many innovative procedures. While she may utilize teeth whitening and dental veneers in a smile makeover, she may also use procedures like orthodontic treatments or dental implants.

How a Cosmetic Dentist Uses Orthodontics

Dr. Aristodemo utilizes metal braces and Invisalign, both of which slowly shift your teeth into their ideal position. Each method has its own benefits and drawbacks, so which treatment you need depends on personal preferences and the complexity of your case!

Traditional metal braces are less comfortable and bulky but provide constant pressure on your teeth and can handle complex misalignment cases. In contrast, Invisalign cannot handle some of the more complex cases. Additionally, clear aligners don’t apply constant pressure, as you can remove them anytime. However, Invisalign provides excellent comfort and a faster and more discrete way to move your teeth, fixing your smile without drawing attention to you.

How a Cosmetic Dentist Uses Dental Implants

At Happy Smiles Family Dentistry, Dr. Aristodemo provides two implant options. One is a traditional implant. These implants are larger and require a more invasive procedure, replacing missing teeth with crowns, bridges, or dentures. This procedure involves creating incisions in the gums as well as waiting 3-6 months for your final restoration.

Dr. Aristodemo also offers mini dental implants, a traditional implant alternative for those without enough jawbone or afraid of invasive procedures. Mini implants require a minimally invasive procedure that uses no incisions or stitches. Additionally, due to their smaller size and one-piece design, she places these implants in one appointment using minimal bone structure!

While some cases call for traditional implants, Dr. Aristodemo prefers mini implants for the amazing benefits they provide patients like you!

If you have missing teeth, trust Dr. Aristodemo to use dental implants to complete your smile during the smile makeover process.
