Pearly whites that are not so white, damaged or misshapen teeth, chipped teeth, missing teeth, these are not problems that you have to live with. Cosmetic dentistry can fix them and it is probably easier, less painful and less time consuming than you imagined.

One relatively minor problem that can have major consequences for our self esteem is teeth discoloration. Teeth discolor naturally with age, as a result of the food and drinks that we consume and from smoking. Whitening is a very simple cosmetic dentistry procedure that can be performed to great effect right here at Wayzata Dental. In a single sitting you can have teeth that are on average eight shades whiter, thanks to Zoom.

For bigger problems we have other solutions. If you teeth are misaligned, chipped, misshapen, crooked or very severely discolored, we are able to cover them with veneers. Veneers are custom made and custom fitted facades for your teeth. They fit like a cap and are indistinguishable from your real teeth. They require only a small amount of enamel to be removed so that they fit flush with the gum line. Fitting veneers is a cosmetic dentistry procedure that has restored confidence to countless dental patients around the world.

Dental implants can solve the problem of missing teeth. A titanium screw is implanted in the jaw and a false tooth is attached to the screw. Implants are the best way to permanently attach a false tooth. The tooth need not be removed for cleaning, you can brush it as you would your normal teeth. This is one of the more involved and costly cosmetic dentistry procedures, but the results are very impressive.
