    In cosmetic dentistry, oral health must be strictly observed before, and more importantly, after the operation. For instance if the prior evaluation of one’s teeth condition shows a misaligned bite or malocclusion, a commonly known gum disease, the patient will need to subject him or herself under what is called a smile makeover. This type of cosmetic dentistry will require a full mouth operation to reconstruct. Although such a surgery requires a painstaking amount of time to recover, patients are usually more than happy with the end result. A smile makeover, being a part of cosmetic dentistry takes into careful consideration, the skin tone, the hair color as well as the hue of the eyes in order to make a perfect match for the teeth. Cosmetic dentistry makes use of implants. These implants are then make in custom to fit the person’s teeth. It will cost an arm and a leg but its worth it.

    As it always turns out, the best isn’t always better for new and highly sophisticated 3D scanning hardware has been found to subject patients with several times more the normal radiation dose compared to older and traditional dental xrays. The imaging device that looks like a miniaturized ct-scanner on it’s side swivels form side to side to take three dimensional images of the jaw, all the while exposing you to more than three times the recommended radiation dose.Due to these findings, the EU and UK has released guidelines on the use and guidelines for use have been released to make the process safer for patients and dental technicians alike. These machines, called Cone Beam Computed Tomography has allowed dentists to plan dental work better and more efficiently, able to see the teeth and underlying structures before even laying hands on the patient. The recommendations include training and re-training as necessary, recommended by the authorities and proper procedural methodologies that are to be made known to all patients and dentists alike for mutual radiation safety to reduce risks associated with radiation and exposure to such materials.

    From people in materials research, a new and innovative way to prevent tooth decay, polishing teeth enamel with nano-particles. These microscopic particles are used for polishing leaving teeth so slick bacteria has no way of hanging on. Well that’s the theory for you still have to watch for the gum line and the spaces between teeth that can play host to plaque and subsequently acid producing bacteria. The technology is easy to use for you simply swap the polishing compound for the other abrasive the dentist regularly uses but to reach most of the teeth would be the problem for as we know it, some parts of the tooth are under the gums which is where the bacteria would take hold out of sight and well hidden from the polishing wheel.

    More aimed at restoring the structure and true form of the face, researchers are finding out that dental implants result in less bone loss for people who have had them placed. The placement of these dental implants stimulates the body to retain the structure it has, thus stimulating bone tissue to continue growing and thus resulting in better oral hygiene. Many people who fail to get teeth fixed in time and eventually suffer from teeth loss have less bone structure integrity resulting in dropping jawlines and even stunted gum lines. The implant stimulates the bone to continue growing thus resulting in healthier smiles even if their teeth and gums have merely been made to look good.
