Woollahra Dentist: Cosmetic Dentistry Options For Fixing Teeth Gaps 

If you have a gap in your teeth, you need not worry. These can be fixed by means of cosmetic dentistry. At this day and age, one cannot help but be amazed at what dentists can do. Armed with the right tools, these professionals can replace damaged tooth, whiten stained teeth, and eliminate nasty teeth gaps to name a few. One can only imagine the overall magic they can do with a person's smile. But for this article, we will focus on the options on how to correct those unsightly spaces in between one's teeth.

Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are customized porcelain facings that are glued over the front of one's teeth. These are usually used to address dental issues regarding discolored and misshapen teeth as well as correction of uneven spaces. And unlike crowns, veneers generally do not require removal or extraction of the tooth itself.

For this particular cosmetic dentistry procedure, both the costs and materials vary. Typically, fees for porcelain veneers start at $900 and can reach up to $2000 for each tooth. But if your budget is restricted, you may opt for plastic or composite veneers. The plastic kind may not be as durable as porcelain but it sure is not going to burn a hole in your pocket---range is approximately $150 per tooth. For a plastic veneer that can last from 5 to 7 seven years, $150 a tooth is not that bad a deal. [article source: click here to read the full content of this article]
