For whatever reason, you think your smile could stand to look better. However, one question keeps holding you back: \u201cIs cosmetic dentistry safe in Sparks?\u201d It\u2019s understandable, especially if you\u2019re afraid that bright and shiny teeth come at the cost of oral health. Fortunately, though, you can rest assured that the field and its treatments are safe. In fact, your local dental practice is here to prove it. Here are four common cosmetic dental treatments and how they\u2019re harmless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teeth Whitening<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you might know, teeth whitening removes tooth stains using a special bleaching gel. Dentists normally offer it in-house, through take-home kits, or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As it turns out, dentist-approved teeth whitening is one of the safest forms of cosmetic dentistry. Multiple studies show that the bleaching gel neither hurts enamel nor irritates gums. At most, it might lead to mild tooth sensitivity that fades in a day or two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental Bonding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental bonding is a procedure that applies tooth-colored resin to damaged teeth. It aims to fix smile flaws like stains, chips, cracks, fractures, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The resin used for dental bonding isn\u2019t harmful. Not only is it safe for tooth enamel, but it\u2019s also perfectly fine for the surrounding gums. Plus, it\u2019s minimally invasive and painless. With just one appointment, it can hide tooth problems and help your smile look better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SureSmile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>SureSmile is an orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth with clear aligning trays. In particular, its aligners apply gentle but consistent force to move pearly whites into alignment. After a year of this process, your crooked smile will have become a straight one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SureSmile is both safe and effective. The plastic used for the trays is non-toxic and doesn\u2019t damage enamel. The aligners also cause less gum irritation than traditional braces. As for risks, patients just need to practice good oral hygiene, so the trays don\u2019t trap bacteria and plaque on teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Porcelain Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic layers that dentists apply to the front of teeth. They\u2019re designed to cover or hide things like tooth stains, chips, misalignment, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Done well, veneer treatment shouldn\u2019t cause you any harm. It does remove some enamel to make room for the porcelain, but this process won\u2019t lead to tooth decay. The newly-applied veneers will protect your teeth while keeping them bright and beautiful!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given the treatments above, you can see that cosmetic dentistry *is* safe in Sparks. That said, talk to your local dentist to see if it could work for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>About the Practice<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistadental.net\/\"><em>Vista Dental Care<\/em><\/a><em> is based in Sparks, NV.
