Mill Valley Cosmetic Dentists Review 2 Aesthetic Objectives

Written by Dr. McConnell on Dec 12, 2023

When you are ready to refresh your smile, or achieve a total dental transformation, our Mill Valley cosmetic dentists are here to help. Over the years, we have found that the more our patients know about their treatment options, the more confident they feel when they sit in the dentist’s chair. With that in mind we have put together a short overview of two ways that you can improve your smile using various treatments. Let’s get started! 

Straight & Seamless

Many of us want to achieve well-balanced, symmetrical smiles. It can be visually jarring when certain teeth are too big, too small, or poorly aligned. Likewise, when oral tissues, like your gums, have irregular edges, you may not love he appearance of your smile as much.

We provide a number of treatments to improve the balance and harmony of your smile. Orthodontic treatment, for example, is used to straighten crooked teeth, close gaps in your smile, and improve dental symmetry. Another option is to use porcelain restorations or composite resin dental bonding to resurface your smile.

White & Bright

If you have noticed that your teeth are looking dimmer, duller, and darker than they used to, you are not alone. This is a very common aesthetic issue that develops, and becomes more severe, as patients age. Whitening your smile makes it look healthier and years younger.

Professional topical whitening treatments are highly potent whitening formulations that are designed to minimize discoloration that has accumulated over time. Many people are able to lighten their smiles by several shades after just one application. If, however, you have a type of discoloration or enamel damage for which professional whitening is not sufficient, you can use porcelain veneers or dental bonding, which covers enamel with composite resin, to effectively resurface your visible tooth structure.
