When it comes to achieving a healthy, confident smile, cosmetic dentistry is often the finishing touch that brings everything together. While orthodontic and restorative treatments focus on improving the structure, alignment, and function of your teeth, cosmetic procedures enhance the appearance - creating a balanced and radiant smile. At Eagle Gate Dental, we believe in a comprehensive approach that combines both form and function to help you look and feel your best.

The Connection Between Function and Aesthetics

Orthodontic and restorative treatments - such as braces, Invisalign®, crowns, and implants - play essential roles in correcting bite issues, replacing missing teeth, and restoring proper function. However, once these foundational improvements are made, cosmetic dentistry can refine and perfect the final look.

For example, after completing orthodontic treatment, teeth may still have minor discoloration or uneven edges. Cosmetic options like teeth whitening or dental bonding can help achieve a more uniform, polished appearance. Similarly, after restorative work such as dental implants or bridges, cosmetic treatments ensure your new smile blends naturally with your existing teeth.

Popular Cosmetic Treatments That Enhance Results

• Teeth Whitening: Brightens your smile after orthodontic treatments to remove stains and discoloration that may have built up during the process.

• Dental Veneers: Thin porcelain shells can improve the color, shape, and size of your teeth - ideal for achieving a symmetrical and balanced look after alignment correction.

• Cosmetic Bonding: Repairs small chips, cracks, or uneven edges for a smoother, more harmonious smile.

• Gum Contouring: Creates balance between teeth and gums, especially useful after orthodontic treatment when alignment has changed your gum line appearance.
