Cosmetic dental treatments are available to patients at Portland Dental in Portland, Oregon, who want to improve their smiles and maintain their oral health. Drs. Kaveendra Ranasinghe and Cameron Schwab use their full menu of cosmetic dental treatments to ensure patients have the brightest smile possible. The team works to provide each patient with an individual care plan designed just for them, and many patients have multiple options to choose from.
Cosmetic resin fillings are perfect for patients with cavities or decay. They are made of composite resin and designed to match the color of the natural teeth. This feature makes them nearly invisible and protects against further damage to the teeth.
Porcelain veneers are an excellent choice for people with smaller-than-normal or misshapen teeth. They can also close small gaps between teeth, cover teeth that have been stained or discolored, and easily deal with minor flaws and imperfections.
Porcelain crowns are used in root canal procedures and can also benefit the repair of broken or damaged teeth. A porcelain crown covers the entire top portion of the tooth all the way to the gum line, stabilizing the tooth and preventing additional damage or decay. They are incredibly durable and can last for many years.
Dental bonding is a procedure that uses composite resin to cover imperfections and correct abnormalities that can detract from a patient’s smile. The resin is color-matched to the tooth and can repair chips, cracks, and other flaws. Once the resin has been cured, it produces an almost unbreakable hard coating.
Dental implants are an excellent option for individuals with one or more missing teeth. These are posts that are surgically implanted into the jawbone. The bone grows around the post, creating a stable foundation for replacement teeth. Once the implant has integrated with the bone, it can be restored with a crown, bridge, or denture.
Professional teeth whitening can improve your smile and boost your self-confidence, with long-lasting results that typically last for months longer than those from an over-the-counter whitening kit. The process is simple and quick, requiring only one visit to your dentist’s office.
Invisalign teeth straightening system uses a series of aligners to gradually shift a patient’s teeth into a more natural alignment. The process can take 12 to 24 months to complete.
