Cosmetic Dentistry in Fox Lake, IL
Cosmetic Dentistry is more than just creating a new smile. Something as simple as teeth whitening may be all that is needed to achieve the look you want. We will work with you to find oral health concerns and suggest the best options for more complex goals or if damage or problems are present.
Comprehensive Evaluation
First, Dr. Prendergast will perform a physical exam of the teeth, gums, jaw, and muscles. Any problems such as tooth decay, malocclusion, or teeth grinding should be treated before a smile makeover. They will likely reappear and impact your result if they are not fixed.
Treatment Planning
Dr. Prendergast will create a unique treatment plan for your smile makeover based on your needs and goals. This includes taking x-rays, molds, and teeth to create 3-D models of the patient’s mouth. You will discuss the options available with Dr. Prendergast and have the opportunity to see cosmetic dentistry before and after photos and projected models for your new smile.
This open and candid talk with the dentist allows for a complete understanding of the treatment. The treatments we may use include: teeth whitening, Invisalign, porcelain veneers, or dental implants. Before your smile makeover, Dr. Prendergast may need additional treatments to correct underlying issues. These include gum disease treatment, tooth extractions, dental fillings, or root canals.
Preparation
The dentist may apply temporary restorations, a tooth colored, plastic version of the final restoration. It protects teeth and allows you to get used to the look and feel of your new smile.
End Results
Placing the final restoration is often a simple process because of the cautious and complete steps taken to ensure your results’ natural appearance and integrity. The entire process varies from patient to patient. Some may be in the final stages in a few weeks, and others wish for more dramatic results in a few months. Our goal is to help you identify and achieve yours through personalized dental care.
