Cosmetic dentistry is a subspecialty devoted to improving the appearance of the patient’s teeth. Cosmetic dentistry in Winnetka includes restorations like dental implants that replace missing teeth. It also includes treatments like teeth whitening and dental bonding.
What is Icon?
Icon is a treatment used to remove discolorations like white spots from the teeth. It is a non-invasive procedure that does not require anesthesia or using a drill. The dentist will use a special solution that will remove the spot from the enamel.
What is Teeth in A Day?
Teeth in A Day, also known as All-On-Four, is a procedure in which the dentist will replace all of the teeth on the upper jaw, lower jaw, or both. The dentist will use implants to permanently support a hybrid denture. They will usually use at least four implants, which is why the procedure is sometimes called All-On-Four.
The dentist will place the implants in the jawbone and then attach a non-removable temporary denture to the implants. Four to six months later, the dentist will remove the temporary denture and replace it with a custom-made permanent denture that will have a better fit and be more comfortable. The permanent denture will be securely fastened in place, so it won’t shift or trap food.
What does teeth whitening involve?
Teeth whitening is a very popular cosmetic treatment. It can be done at home or in the office. The dentist will use KOR Deep Bleaching for in-office treatments. In KOR Deep Bleaching, the dentist will use a special gel that increases the teeth’s ability to absorb oxygen and dissolve stains. They will pour the gel into slim custom-made trays that fit snugly over the patient’s teeth.
KOR Deep Bleaching usually requires two office visits and four at-home treatments.
