Cosmetic Dental Services

Cosmetic Dentist Appleton, WI

Cosmetic dentistry primarily focuses on the aesthetics of your smile rather than the health and function of your teeth and gums. Cosmetic treatments give patients the smiles they’ve been looking for, from whitening to fixing imperfections to replacing missing teeth. When you are looking to change the appearance of your smile, whether minor or drastic, then cosmetic dentistry is the answer.

You no longer have to suffer from missing, chipped, discolored, or crooked teeth. Anne E. Siegrist DDS, SC offers a variety of cosmetic dentistry treatments to help you achieve the smile you desire and bring your confidence back. Dr. Siegrist will take the time to develop a custom treatment plan for you based on your individual needs and requests. Our clinic is also wheelchair accessible, and our staff is experienced in senior care. Contact our Appleton, WI dental office today to learn more or schedule a consultation.

Our Cosmetic Dentistry Services We Offer:

Bonding

In this procedure, composite tooth-colored resin is shaped and bonded to the tooth’s surface to repair minor chips and cracks, cover discolored enamel, and close small gaps between teeth. It can also be used to reshape undersized, crooked, or misshapen teeth and rebuild areas where enamel erosion has taken place. Dental bonding is convenient, cost-effective, and minimally invasive.

Cosmetic Tooth-Colored Fillings

We offer cosmetic fillings made from composite resin material. Like bonding, the material used in tooth-colored fillings blends seamlessly with your natural tooth shade so your fillings will not be noticeable like traditional metal fillings are.

Crowns and Bridges

One of the most common and reliable ways dentists can restore both function and form to a damaged or decayed tooth is by applying a dental crown. Crowns are a versatile restoration: they finish off root canals, encase a damaged tooth to strengthen it and improve its appearance, and can be used in conjunction with a bridge to replace missing teeth. If you have a single tooth or multiple teeth that need restoration or replacement, Dr. Siegrist has a solution that will work for you.

Invisalign

Invisalign is a great way to straighten your smile discreetly without having to sport a mouth full of metal brackets and wires like that of traditional braces. Invisalign uses a system of removable, clear plastic aligners to gradually straighten your teeth over time. This treatment is best for correcting mild to moderate orthodontic issues.

Porcelain Veneers

A dental veneer is a thin, translucent, durable porcelain shell that is custom-made to cover the front of a tooth. Like bonding, veneers can restore the appearance of teeth with chips, cracks, stains, can close small gaps between the teeth, and can reshape misshapen or slightly misaligned teeth. A veneer can be applied to a single tooth or multiple teeth.

Teeth Whitening

Surface staining can be caused by external factors such as diet, tobacco use, or inadequate oral hygiene. At Anne E. Siegrist DDS, SC, we offer both in-office whitening treatments and take-home custom whitening trays as options to brighten your smile. Professional teeth whitening solutions are generally faster, more effective, and longer lasting than at-home over the counter products. If deep(internal) stains make whitening treatments impractical, you might consider bonding or veneers.=

Maintaining Your New Smile

Maintaining a beautiful smile after cosmetic treatment does require some work. Brushing and flossing twice a day is strongly encouraged. Be sure to keep up with your regular scheduled dental checkups as well to maintain a healthy, beautiful smile. Avoiding smoking is the best care for your gums and teeth in the long run. Maintenance for cosmetic work varies depending upon the treatment, but it’s best to stay away from colored foods such as coffee, ketchup, fruit juice, etc. due to whitened teeth being more at risk of staining after treatment.
