FAQ
What is the difference between cosmetic and restorative dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your smile, while restorative dentistry is concerned with repairing and rebuilding damaged or missing teeth to restore their function and health. Treatments like teeth whitening, veneers, and Botox are considered cosmetic, while fillings, crowns, and implants are restorative.
How long do cosmetic dental treatments last?
The longevity of cosmetic dental treatments can vary. Teeth whitening results typically last 6 months to 2 years, depending on your lifestyle and oral hygiene habits. Dental bonding may last 3-10 years, and porcelain veneers can last 10-20 years with proper care. Dental implants and full-mouth rehabilitations are considered long-term solutions.
Am I a good candidate for clear aligners?
Clear aligners can be an excellent option for many patients looking to straighten their teeth discreetly. Candidacy is typically determined by the severity of your orthodontic issues, as well as your commitment to wearing the aligners as directed. During your consultation, Dr. Kanter will assess your needs and determine if clear aligners are the right choice for you.
What is involved in full-mouth rehabilitation?
A full-mouth rehabilitation is a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses any and all dental issues you may have, from missing teeth and gum disease to TMJ and bite problems. This could involve a combination of restorative and cosmetic treatments, such as dental implants, crowns, veneers, and orthodontics. Dr. Kanter will work closely with you to develop a customized plan to fully rejuvenate your oral health and the appearance of your smile.
