Get Your Teeth Whitened at Home!

Do you find yourself staring enviously at the smiles of Hollywood stars radiating out of entertainment magazines? You too can have a smile so brilliant. With the growing trend of teeth whitening, costs have gone down and more products have become available, making the procedure easier than ever before.
Teeth whitening, also called teeth bleaching, was once an expensive in-office procedure that only the rich and famous could afford. Fortunately for the rest of us, teeth whitening can now be done at home, with the help of a professional. Many dentists are specially trained in teeth whitening techniques. Usually, they will mold a tray fitted to your teeth. You squeeze teeth whitening gels into the trays and keep them in your mouth for a prescribed amount of time each day. Over a period of a couple weeks, your teeth will begin to shine. These teeth whitening systems may initially cost hundreds of dollars. However, once a tray has been made, it can be reused over and over again; refills of teeth whitening gels are inexpensive. And a tray made specifically for your teeth will perform better than a generic mold.

Tooth regeneration will make fillings a thing of the past

Scientists are developing the technology to enable teeth to regrow the crystals that make up dentin and enamel, thereby phasing out fillings and drillings completely.
The technology will evenbtually phase out fillings and drillings completely.
The goal – estimated to be at least 10 years away – is to spot tooth decay early enough that they then get the teeth to grow healthy tooth-matter over the bad spots.
The scientists are beginning to find just the right solutions of chemicals to rebuild decayed teeth, rather than merely patching their holes.
‘What we’re hoping to have happen is to catch [decaying teeth] early and remineralise them,’ said Sally Marshall, a professor at the University of California at San Francisco.
By putting a layer of the solution on individual test teeth, Marshall has already been able to remineralise some parts of the teeth.

Wear Dental Veneers and own the Million Dollar Smile!
Dr. Teeth 4 March, 2008
(3) Comment If you feel that you can’t flaunt your smile too often because of the uneven teeth, then don’t worry, Dental Veneers are here to help you out. They are custom-designed shells made of ceramic tooth like material. When applied on the surface of the tooth, they are successful in covering the worn out tooth enamel, uneven tooth alignment and even spacing and chips or cracks.
Cosmetic Dentists are able to create a white and bright smile with beautifully aligned and shapely Veneers. Moreover, due to the advances in the field of dentistry, today’s Veneers are aesthetically natural to look at and are of better quality.

(0) Comment Science and technology constantly evolve and always broaden the scope of all knowledge. Dentistry has also evolved and a one aspect of dentistry has grown into a discipline of its own known as aesthetic dentistry.
The tremendous improvement of materials used in dentistry has made it possible for us to now replicate tooth structure very minutely in terms of shape, color, texture, size, physical properties and to a certain extent even chemical properties. This advent of material sciences now gives us the dentist, enough leeway to play around with the dentition and alter its structure and relationship to the face. A dentist who had delved deep into this aspect and can bring about a total change in a persons appearance just by modifying the shape, size and color of the teeth is an COSMETIC DENTIST.
