Can cosmetic dentistry improve oral health?

Cosmetic dentistry is not a cause of oral health care concerns. On the contrary, cosmetic dentistry procedures often lead to significant improvements in your oral health.

One advantage of cosmetic dental treatments is that they often lead to a lower risk of infection. Empty spaces in the mouth are places where harmful bacteria can grow. Dental implants, crowns, and bridges can close these gaps and remove the empty spaces where bacteria may thrive.

Cosmetic dentistry may also involve removing unhealthy or infected teeth. Doing so leads to a reduced chance of further infection and improves overall oral health. Dental implants can then replace the extracted teeth to make your smile whole and worth sharing.
