At this point, you may want prettier teeth. Perhaps you’re bothered by smile flaws you want to get rid of. Still, there’s a good chance you want to avoid intrusive dental work. Fair enough – those sorts of treatments can get lengthy and burdensome. Fortunately, your local dentist in Rome has a solution: non-invasive cosmetic procedures. These options can beautify your smile without much hassle. To learn more, here’s a summary of non-invasive cosmetic dentistry and three of its examples.

What’s Non-Invasive Cosmetic Dentistry?

In essence, non-invasive cosmetic dentistry is a simpler way to get pretty teeth. It relies on treatments and procedures that don’t involve surgery, anesthesia, or extended downtime. As a result, said services make smile enhancements convenient.

In light of these traits, non-invasive cosmetic work is now quite popular. That’s only natural – the field’s work is painless, quick, and uncomplicated. Consequently, you can trust it to produce amazing results without discomfort or major time commitments.

3 Non-Invasive Cosmetic Dental Services

Today, most dentists offer a good range of non-invasive cosmetic dental options. Common examples of these are:

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening (per the name) is a service that directly whitens enamel. To do so, it relies on a special bleaching gel to remove stains from tooth surfaces. The treatment’s result is thus a smile that’s six to eight shades whiter than before.

Fortunately, no aspect of whitening is intrusive. The bleaching gel has no side effects and involves no prep work. Plus, the dentist will adjust the gel you receive to ensure quick yet thorough results. For example, the at-home option can be done in only two weeks.

Gum Recontouring

Gum recontouring is an effective option for patients with “gummy” smiles. In particular, it uses a dental laser to remove the excess gum tissue obscuring your teeth. It then leads to your teeth looking correctly sized and balanced.

Despite what you might think, gum recontouring isn’t invasive, either. The process can usually be done in just a one-hour dental visit. Also, it doesn’t leave behind nasty wounds or marks – the dental laser cauterizes your gum tissue even as the excess is removed.

Metal-Free Restorations

Rather than metal crowns or fillings, many dentists now offer tooth-colored varieties. These kinds both protect teeth and help them look nicer, thanks to using durable porcelain and Emax. The result is a treatment site that blends naturally with the rest of your smile.

Compared to their metallic ancestors, metal-free restorations aren’t invasive at all. A dentist must only remove a tiny bit of enamel to place them. Otherwise, non-metal crowns and fillings leave much of the original tooth structure intact.

Really, non-invasive cosmetic dentistry is an easier way to get nice teeth. Talk to a dental provider soon about whether its service might help your grin!
