If you have had restorations, orthodontia, or a complete smile redesign, you want people to notice the final outcome – your sensational smile. There is a lot, however, that is going on behind the scenes. This post from Jim Erpenbach DDS in Knoxville TN talks about three smile makeover components that are not readily apparent when you smile, but are often necessary for the successful result.
Invisible Braces
Not everyone wants to flash a metal smile while their teeth are being straightened. Invisible braces from Clear CorrectÂ?keep your secret safe because it is nearly impossible to see them while they are being worn.
White Fillings
If you have metal fillings, you might be interested in replacing them with composite fillings that match your surrounding teeth. You can’t undo the decay, but you can make the metal disappear.
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a metal (usually titanium) rod implanted into the bone to replace the missing root. The crown and supporting structure are securely and permanently attached to the post. Titanium is super strong and well tolerated by the jaw bone. When the final crown is placed, your new tooth is indistinguishable from the others.
