New Dental Procedures


Like all the other industries these days, the field of dentistry is also constantly evolving and newer and newer procedures and techniques are introduced expanding the overall horizon of this field.

One of the hottest new procedures these days that is gaining a lot of popularity is smile makeovers. If you have misshapen teeth that you always try to hide when smiling, then you have a cure and a treatment out there now. Nowadays cosmetic dentists across the country are changing smiles with cosmetic dental treatments. Porcelain veneers have also gained a lot of popularity over the years. There are a lot of different types of porcelains in the market but the veneer that is now becoming very common is Lumineers by Cerinate. These can be applied to the patient without modifying the tooth structure because they can be made as thin as contact lens. The advantage with this procedure is that it is easily reversible because the tooth structures have not been modified. The one issue with these veneers which has come up is that in most cases people with very straight teeth normally qualify to get these. If the teeth are not very straight then the tooth structure might have to be removed to get a good and a natural fit. Although since Lumineers are still quite new in the market so only time will tell how well they perform over the years but for now they sure are a very quick remedy for all the customer that might be unhappy with their smiles.

This does not really mean that these are any better that traditional porcelain veneers because from an aesthetic point the traditional ones have always given much better results.

Another new dental procedure is again aesthetic related and it is Zoom II whitening system. It is much more effective than its previous system, Zoom. Zoom II is now offered by a lot of dentists across the country as part of the professional whitening system. Zoom II is considered to be less sensitive and at the same time give much quicker results.
