Some of the other most common procedures in a full mouth restoration include changing
the size, shape and alignment of teeth, closing gaps, improving or correcting bites, replacing
missing teeth and/or failed fillings with implants, fashioning crowns
and bridges and lightening or brightening teeth color.
While there is some overlap between the two fields (both may utilize implants and crowns, for example), the focus is different, as is the level of expertise. A cosmetic dentist goes beyond restoring an individual's teeth to their proper function, seeking to attain the most ideal result according to the patient's definition of beauty. This involves a high level of finesse with even the smallest details, such as how much tooth should be displayed in a particular smile. Learn more about Cosmetic Dentistry here.
