What are the most demanded dental treatments?

Dr. Dmitri Naumov, medical director of Dentaesthetic Corporation dental clinic, reveals and explains the most demanded dental treatments: dental implants, esthetic or transparent orthodontics, LED whitening and dental veneers are the top 5 trends in dental care.

Whiter teeth, better positioned, without missing pieces, without looking worn… Everything is possible thanks to the dental treatments that we highlight today. And we do so because they are the most commonly requested by patients in dental clinics. They can be combined with each other or performed individually, depending on the needs of each person. And always, prior diagnosis and recommendations of the specialist in Dentistry and Stomatology.

Dental implants: recover lost teeth and prevent the displacement of other teeth.

Thanks to dental implants, missing teeth or molars can be replaced. They are ideal for both functional and esthetic rehabilitation of the mouth. At the same time, the placement of dental implants avoids the displacement of neighboring teeth, also relieving the overload on other parts of the dentition. With post-extraction implants, the insertion of the implant is carried out in a single visit. And if we add to this the immediate load crowns (once the patient is verified to be suitable) the person can leave the office with a completely renewed dental piece.

Aesthetic orthodontics, the same results with less visible brackets

Traditional orthodontics has long been renewed with the introduction of sapphire brackets. This is a transparent appliance, almost like glass, with white wires that move the teeth supported by the brackets. A more esthetic treatment, yet with the same advantages as metal braces. Esthetic sapphire orthodontics has revolutionized dentistry and is increasingly used, especially because of its low visibility. Not forgetting that the results can change the shape of our teeth and, therefore, improve our smile.

Transparent orthodontics, the best alternative to braces

Using the Invisalign system or other similar systems that are available in dental clinics, transparent orthodontics is carried out with the application of dental aligners. These are transparent plastic pieces that cover the teeth and are also ‘removable’. They are custom-made for the patient, using an advanced computer program. An option to consider for people who do not wish to have visible braces.

LED whitening, a quick treatment to show off a perfect smile.

LED teeth whitening is a very effective and practical technique to obtain whiter and more attractive teeth. It is performed in a single visit of about 35 to 40 minutes, which includes five continuous sessions of exposure to light (approximately eight minutes each). Previously, a whitening gel is applied to the teeth, since the wavelength of the light accelerates the whitening process. Very satisfactory results are usually obtained without discomfort. However, this depends on the cause of the discoloration and its severity.

Dental veneers, maximum esthetic result for a perfect smile

Dental veneers are very thin shells that are placed on the outside of the teeth. Their purpose is to improve both color and shape, hiding wear or separation. The result is a natural and beautiful mouth. Veneers can be of various types: composite (a mixture of synthetic materials) or ceramic. This treatment is recommended if the patient does not wish to undergo, for example, orthodontic treatment. However, it is less effective and, if there is malocclusion, it must be very slight before it can be solved with veneers. Ideally, this treatment should be combined with orthodontic treatment beforehand, since if the teeth are not aligned, the desired effect will not be achieved with veneers alone. In this way, maximum esthetic results are achieved. In any case, it is important to consult with the dentist to assess the most appropriate treatment.
