It can be challenging to feel confident about your teeth if they aren\u2019t as proportionate as you\u2019d like. The good news is that you don\u2019t need to settle for a smile that you aren\u2019t proud to show off. There are a variety of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.21stcenturydental.com\/cosmetic-dentistry.html\">cosmetic solutions<\/a> out there that can help you achieve the even smile you\u2019ve been hoping for. Here are some of the treatment options that can help to correct the appearance of undersized teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cosmetic Bonding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cosmetic bonding is used to correct minor aesthetic imperfections. This minimally invasive procedure involves your dentist sculpting a tooth-colored composite resin to the surface of your teeth to correct small flaws in your smile. If you have one or a couple of undersized teeth, minor gaps, or other aesthetic issues, you might want to consider cosmetic bonding as a solution. It is affordable and can last for several years before it needs to be retouched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the most common cosmetic dental procedures out there. In involves the use of wafer-thin shells of porcelain that are placed over the front-facing surfaces of the teeth to correct various imperfections, including chips, gaps, discoloration, and minor cracks. If can also correct the appearance of misshapen of undersized teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are customized to be the exact size, shape, and color needed to blend in seamlessly with the rest of your smile while helping you achieve the results that you are looking for. After evaluating your smile, your dentist will help you decide how many veneers you need to achieve your smile goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cosmetic Gum Surgery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your teeth appear short due to an excess of gum tissue, cosmetic gum surgery could be an option. Using a soft-tissue laser, your periodontist can remove excess gum tissue to instantly make your teeth appear longer and your smile more balanced. The dental laser cauterizes the tissue as it goals, resulting in less bleeding, less inflammation, and a quicker recovery period when compared to traditional methods. It is also gentler and more comfortable than when performed with a scalpel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t need to settle for teeth that are small or undersized. By scheduling a consultation with your dentist, you can put together a plan that best meets your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At 21<sup>st<\/sup> Century Dental of Irving, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.21stcenturydental.com\/meet-dr-roy.html\">Dr. Jeff Roy<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.21stcenturydental.com\/meet-dr-bristow.html\">Dr. Ashley Bristow<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.21stcenturydental.com\/meet-dr-kumar.html\">Dr. Jonni Kumar<\/a> work together to treat patients in the Irving area.
