When it comes to oral health care, you could be forgiven for assuming that it is all about preventing cavities and gum disease.
And while these are important areas, it seems that the specialism of cosmetic dental care is continuing to become one of the most profitable areas. But why is this?
Well, we think we have the answer.
At Melbourne East Prosthodontics, our dentist Kew aims to help every single one of our patients to get the glamorous smile that they have always wanted. This could include the fitting of porcelain veneers, tooth whitening or even oral implants depending on the suitability of treatment types.
Are there any other advantages to cosmetic dental procedures though? Read on to find out!
It’s affordable
First things first, when it comes to visiting our dentist Kew to have cosmetic dental care done, you need to know if it is going to be affordable. A lot has changed in dentistry recently, including the affordability of dental treatment
As part of your consultation, our dentist Kew will put together a treatment plan for you which includes a clear pricing structure. Our friendly team in Kew, Melbourne East, are also always happy to discuss the financing options we have available for our patients.
Health benefits
Our dentist Kew is a big fan of prevention. But how can cosmetic dental care prevent issues with your health?
Well, for instance, having oral implants fitted can prevent tooth decay and gum disease. If you are having a single implant fitted, the surrounding teeth will benefit from this gap being closed. Gaps in your teeth attract bacteria. Bacteria leads to inflammation. And inflammation like gum disease can lead to an increased risk of heart attacks, strokes and cancers. Also, gaps in your teeth may be causing you to grind your teeth more at night. Which puts the risk of migraines and headaches up! So, talk to our team if you want to know more about how some cosmetic dental procedures can benefit your health.
Oral health
No one wants to have gum disease, or tooth decay, or sensitive teeth. But there are cosmetic dental options which can treat or reduce the chances of all of these issues from developing.
As mentioned earlier, implants can reduce gum disease as well as tooth decay. Veneers can also stop issues of oral sensitivity, as they act as a barrier between your teeth and the inside of your mouth. Of course, adult orthodontics like Invisalign also reduce the chances of you developing tooth decay and gum disease, as misaligned teeth are harder to clean. So, by having them straightened, these issues are less likely to develop.
Self-esteem
Never put a price on self-esteem!
Self-esteem can impact how you interact, how you talk and of course, how you see the world.
Cosmetic dental care is a great way to potentially boost your self-esteem. Straighter, whiter, gap-free teeth are something that you will want to show off wherever you go.
