Using Resin to Improve Your Teeth

A smile is often the first thing people notice when they meet someone. There are many ways resin can be used for to improve the appearance of one’s teeth. Resin fillings, also referred to as composite, white fillings or bonding, can make a substantial improvement in the appearance of the teeth in a short period of time.

Resin is what Rapid City Cosmetic Dentist Dr. Jeff Loftus use to repair small cavities or chips in front teeth, as well as fill cavities cosmetically in back teeth. Resin can do virtually the same thing as porcelain veneers with respect to improving the appearance of the teeth. Using resin instead of porcelain veneers for cosmetic dentistry saves time and money, however there are some disadvantages with resin as well.

When resin is used to create the ideal smile, the results are not as strong as porcelain veneers, and require repairs every few years. Resin can discolor over time, and does not have as much natural beauty as porcelain veneers. Resin cosmetic procedures can usually be completed in about an hour.

During your consultation with South Dakota cosmetic dentist Dr. Loftus, you will discuss your cosmetic dentistry needs. Dr. Loftus will be sure to cover the downsides and benefits of using resin for your cosmetic dentistry procedure. Schedule your consultation today!

The largest benefit to braces is they allow Dr. Loftus to move the teeth during growth, thus braces are most commonly used among children and teenagers.

Adults may also consider braces to straighten crooked teeth and close gaps in teeth. While braces are an option, most adults choose less time consuming procedures such as Invisalign or Veneers to achieve the desired results. A consultation with Dr. Loftus is needed to determine the best treatment plan for your individual needs.

Improving the Appearance of Crooked Teeth with Rapid City Braces

Crooked teeth can be a source of embarrassment particularly among young people who are often teased about their imperfections. While there are a number of ways to straighten or mask crooked teeth, braces are still among the most common treatments for crooked teeth.

Braces slowly move the teeth into line over months sometimes years. Patients who wear traditional braces will have to make visits to the office every few months to have the brace wire tightened. While the process can be uncomfortable in the days after a tightening, the pain is well worth the results braces can produce.While braces are most commonly worn by young people, adults may opt for braces as well.

If you are unhappy with your crooked teeth or would like to discuss your child’s teeth, contact our office to schedule a consultation with Dr. Loftus.
