If you want to restore your smile in Crestview Hills, you may be wondering if you need restorative dentistry treatment or cosmetic treatment. What’s the difference, and are they the same thing? Find out now in this blog from Vivid Dentistry!
RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY FIXES STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS WITH YOUR TEETH
As the name implies, restorative dentistry is focused on restoring structural problems with your teeth, using treatments like dental fillings to restore decayed teeth, root canals and dental crowns to repair infected teeth, and dental implants, dentures, and dental bridges to replace missing teeth.
While there is an emphasis on a natural, beautiful smile, restorative treatments typically stop once you have achieved a fully-functioning set of teeth, with less of an emphasis on a “picture-perfect” appearance.
COSMETIC DENTISTRY ENHANCES THE APPEARANCE OF HEALTHY TEETH
In contrast to restorative dentistry, cosmetic dentistry is more concerned with perfecting your smile, and improving already-healthy teeth. It is not usually done if you have issues like cavities or infected teeth. Your smile must already be healthy to get cosmetic care.
Using treatments like porcelain veneers, dental bonding, and even Invisalign, cosmetic dentists will improve your smile even further, resulting in a gorgeous, natural appearance.
