Dentist in Kenosha Informs Patients of Available Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures

Dr. Todd Armstrong, Kenosha dentist, offers cosmetic procedures to improve patient smiles.

2013-06-15

KENOSHA, WI, June 15, 2013 (Press-News.org) While general dentistry focuses on oral hygiene and preventing, diagnosing and treating oral disease, cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of a person's teeth, mouth and smile. Whether a patient's teeth are discolored, crooked or chipped, there is a cosmetic solution for improving his or her smile. Technological advancements in natural-looking, tooth-colored dental materials make today's cosmetic dental treatments more durable and predictable than in years past, and Dr. Todd Armstrong, dentist in Kenosha, works to inform his patients of available treatments.

Dr. Todd Armstrong, Kenosha dentist, offers Invisalign for patients looking to straighten their teeth without bulky braces. With Invisalign, treatment is very discrete, allowing patients to continue with every-day activities without anyone noticing they are undergoing treatment for straighter teeth. As opposed to traditional metal braces, Invisalign braces are more comfortable, less abrasive and do not react with gum tissue.

"With Invisalign, my patients are able to eat normally and clean their teeth without any hassle," said Dr. Todd Armstrong about Invisalign in Kenosha. "One of the main complaints from patients with wire braces is that food can get trapped or stuck behind the wires and bands, making them difficult to clean. With Invisalign you can remove your aligners to eat the food you choose, in addition to being able to brush and floss your teeth as you normally would without braces."

Another cosmetic procedure available to replace missing teeth is dental implants in Kenosha. The new and attractively fabricated teeth are firmly attached by way of an implant, which becomes integrated into the structure of the jawbones so that they are as real as natural teeth in function and appearance. With dental implants patients can smile again with confidence because they look and feel like real, natural teeth.

"Unlike dentures and bridges, dental implants do not affect adjacent teeth. Neighboring teeth do not have to be altered in order to support the implant, which means that more of your teeth will be unharmed. With dental implants you can also speak freely and eat with confidence and comfort. They provide freedom from the looseness and discomfort you get from dentures," said Dr. Armstrong, dentist in Kenosha, WI.

Dental veneers are also available at Dr. Armstrong's office to help improve the appearance of patients' teeth. Falling under the category of cosmetic dentistry, veneers create a bright, white smile with beautifully aligned, shapely teeth. The translucent ceramic quality of today's veneers provides a more natural look than what has been available in the past.

Regardless of the poor condition or appearance of a patient's teeth, dental veneers in Kenosha may solve most or even all-cosmetic dental issues. Veneers are custom-designed tooth-like ceramic shells that, when applied over the surface of a tooth, can cover worn enamel, uneven tooth alignment or spacing, and chips or cracks.

Patients are encouraged to contact Dr. Todd Armstrong, Kenosha, WI dentist, for more information on what cosmetic treatments may work best for improving the appearance of his or her smile. From teeth whitening to Invisalign, there is a solution available to help improve patients' teeth, and confidence.
