Cosmetic dentistry for kids focuses on the teeth’s aesthetic appearance and improving how the smile looks. While cosmetic procedures are common for adults, parents may not know about these types of treatments for their kids. However, children with dental issues can greatly benefit from cosmetic dentistry.
Common Cosmetic Dental Concerns In Children
While some children are more prone to aesthetic issues with their teeth, others may have poor oral hygiene or experienced dental trauma, causing cosmetic concerns. Common issues our pediatric dentists see in children are:
Discolored teeth
Chipped or broken teeth
Uneven or misshapen teeth
Crooked or crowded teeth
Gapped teeth
Importance Of Early Intervention
When kids are dealing with these aesthetic concerns, it can have a serious impact on their emotional and psychosocial health. One study found that dental problems in children had a significant connection to:
Poor academic performance
Missing school
Not completing homework
Being shy
Feeling unhappy or worthless
Being less friendly
Self-esteem issues were most strongly felt by teens between the ages of 15 and 17. If cosmetic issues are caught and treated earlier, it can help kids and adolescents avoid these emotional hardships, give them the confidence to make meaningful connections, and help withacademic achievement.
Benefits Of Cosmetic Dental Treatment For Children
Cosmetic dentistry for kids is much more than simply fixing an aesthetic problem. These treatments allow children to express themselves confidently without feeling self-conscious about their teeth.
If you’re considering a cosmetic dental procedure for your child, here are some advantages to keep in mind. Cosmetic dental procedures:
Improve the look of their smile
Boost their self-esteem
Are less invasive than adult cosmetic procedures
Are affordable
Motivate your child to care for their teeth
May help with social engagement and school performance
With this offer, there’s no excuse not to get back on track! Schedule a complete exam and x-rays for only $39 and ensure you have a beautiful healthy smile.
Cosmetic Dentistry For Children And Teens
Our Las Vegas pediatric dentists offer different types of procedures that can help your child feel good about their smile. Some of these treatments can also improve oral health and function and prevent future dental issues.
Dental Bonding
It’s common for children to chip or break their teeth while playing sports or roughhousing. Dental bonding is an easy and effective solution that fixes minor chips with a durable, tooth-colored resin. The material is applied directly to the teeth to restore functionality and appearance.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
If your child develops a cavity, we offer a discreet restorative treatment to get their dental health back on track. We’ll clear the damage and apply a tooth-colored dental filling that blends perfectly with your child’s natural teeth.
Dental Crowns
In some cases of dental trauma, a tooth is significantly damaged and changes your child’s smile. A dental crown is a cosmetic option for young patients with a permanent tooth that is injured or broken. A dental crown protects the vulnerable tooth while restoring the smile with a natural appearance.
Teeth Whitening
Some kids experience serious teeth staining due to poor oral hygiene, diet choices, or medication side effects. In these situations, teeth whitening may be an appropriate treatment to remove these deep stains and brighten your child’s teeth.
Orthodontic Treatment
Children often hide their smiles when they have crooked, overcrowded, or misaligned teeth. Fortunately, braces can effectively straighten teeth and correct most alignment issues. Contact our team to learn about discounts and special offers on pediatric braces in Las Vegas!
