Most people aren't born with perfect teeth. From problems of teeth position to color, these teeth imperfections can weigh you down. However, you don't have to feel insecure about your dental problems anymore because your cosmetic dentist, Dr. Marina Manunts of Northeast Family Dentistry, in Ithaca, NY, can help fix them using cosmetic dentistry.

Crooked and Misaligned Teeth

Crooked or misaligned teeth can seriously affect your smile. Crooked teeth could pose serious dental issues because proper teeth cleaning might be challenging. Chewing food could also be an uncomfortable task if you have crooked or misaligned teeth.

If you reside in Ithaca, NY, you can trust that your dentist, Dr. Manunts, can correct these dental problems with cosmetic dentistry. You could choose between traditional braces and Invisalign clear aligners to straighten out your teeth.

Lost Tooth

Tooth decay is the leading cause of tooth loss among Americans. The American College of Prosthodontists (ACP) estimates that up to 178 million Americans are missing at least one tooth.

Tooth loss becomes more significant with age. So, if you're missing a tooth or two, you're not alone, and all hope is not lost.

Cosmetic dentistry at Northeast Family Dentistry, in Ithaca, NY, offers you several options to fill up the gap. Your dentist might recommend dental bridges, dentures, or dental implants to fill out the space left by your lost tooth and complete your smile.

Teeth Stains or Discolorations

There's something about brilliant white teeth that makes your smile pop out even more. However, most people don't have Hollywood white teeth, and the few with white teeth might observe that they lose their brilliance with age.

Cigarette smoking and certain food or drinks could be responsible for staining your teeth. Teeth whitening is a simple process that you can undergo in your dentist's office to reclaim your bright smile.

Chipped Teeth

Biting hard objects or sports injuries could chip off a piece of your tooth. While this is pretty common, it's also something your cosmetic dentist can help you fix. Neglecting your chipped tooth could result in nerve damage and ultimately lead to tooth loss.
