If you’re self-conscious about your crooked or overcrowded teeth, there are options available to you. Traditional metal braces are no longer the only way to correct crooked teeth. In fact, the solution to your crooked teeth may be far simpler than you think! Visit Dr. Christopher Banks, a Chevy Chase, MD dentist offering these and several additional cosmetic dentistry solutions to straighten and brighten your smile.
Veneers
Porcelain dental veneers offer a quick way to simultaneously straighten and brighten the teeth. These thin porcelain coverings are shaped to fit your smile and mounted on top of crooked teeth. They are designed to make your teeth appear straighter, and since they are made of porcelain, they are resistant to stains. Dental veneers can straighten crooked teeth and offer teeth whitening at the same time!
Invisible Braces
Treatment with Invisalign is ideal for many adults because the aligners are virtually invisible, removable and straighten teeth in a relatively short period of time.
In addition to the esthetic and comfort advantages, Invisalign offers a number of significant clinical benefits including:
- Improved gum and tooth health during treatment because of better oral hygiene
- No metal allergies due to brackets and wires
- More predictable treatment planning with Invisalign software
- Custom aligners tailored to fit your teeth precisely, for reduced irritation and fewer scratches
Dental Bonding
Cosmetic dental bonding is a minimally invasive way to straighten crooked teeth in just one office visit. A composite resin is applied to the front of the problem teeth, and is shaped to your mouth to straighten teeth or close those annoying gaps between teeth. This method produces natural-looking results, so no one will know you ever had crooked teeth.
