Getting Cosmetic Dental Work
For cosmetic dental treatments, our goal is to see you leave our clinic, happy with your smile.
Overtime, your teeth may change in appearance. They may no longer look as white or as healthy. You might even notice them changing shape or increasing gaps in between. There are several factors that could cause these changes. One of which are cavities.
You don’t have to endure these issues all your life. Broken, discoloured, or missing teeth can still be fixed. You can restore your smile with the help of cosmetic dental services. Deer Dental Valley Care offers cosmetic dental treatment to South Calgary patients.
We try to see your goal as you see it so we can work together planning your smile. Many people choose not to take all these steps, but we give you options to make you feel more at ease.
10 Step Process
1. First, we request that you visit us in the clinic so we can discuss the changes you want done in your smile. We try to see your goal as you see it so we can deliver results you are happy with.
2. Once you’re confident we understand your needs, we can proceed to the examining the current condition of your teeth. Here, we also let advise you on possible options we can offer you.
3. Next up, we take impressions of your teeth. Using wax, we create changes we will make to your real teeth. Cosmetic dental treatment is about helping you achieve the smile you want so this allows you to see what your teeth will look like before we start any work.
4. We then choose a colour together, our goal is to make it natural looking.
5. In case you’re still unsure how you want your new teeth to look like, we can make a plastic stent for you. This is an exact duplicate of the wax-up that you can wear on top of your teeth. Now you can see how your new smile will look like.
6. You can wear this stent at home for a few days. Make sure to ask your friends and family how you look. We will only proceed with the next steps once you are completely satisfied.
7. Once you’re happy with the results, we proceed to preparing the tooth area and taking impressions.
8. In cases where tooth preparation is required, we follow these steps.
Once you’re happy how the temporaries fit and work, we create an exact duplicate for the final piece.
9. The dentist makes the veneers or crowns for you to try. Feel free to invite a friend or family member you can consult regarding the final look of your smile.
10. Once you’re happy, we finally cement the veneers or crowns on your teeth. You can now show off your new smile!
