Guidance from Dr. Dmitry Gorbatov
Hello, my dear friends. In today’s article, we’re going to talk about how to choose the right cosmetic treatment between orthodontic treatment and a cosmetic dental makeover. My name is Dr. Dmitry Gorbatov, and I’ve been practicing cosmetic and holistic dentistry for 33 years on South Ocean Drive in Hollywood, Florida.
Orthodontic Treatment: Is It Right for You?
When deciding between orthodontic treatment and cosmetic reconstruction, one of the first things to consider is your age and the condition of your teeth. Orthodontics, such as braces, are typically more suitable for younger individuals, particularly those aged 14 to 20. If your teeth are in good condition—free from cracks, discoloration, fillings, or periodontal problems—then orthodontics can be an effective solution to straighten your smile.
However, for older individuals, particularly those between 35 and 50 years old, you must take a realistic look at the condition of your teeth. If your teeth have cracks, breakage, discoloration, or gum problems, simply moving them with braces won’t fix these underlying issues. Yes, the teeth may be straighter, but the overall health and appearance of the teeth may still be compromised.
Considerations for Cosmetic Dental Makeover
As we age, other factors come into play, such as periodontal health and the flexibility of tissues and blood vessels. In some cases, moving teeth too aggressively can cause teeth to die. If you’re older and your teeth already show signs of wear, discoloration, or damage, cosmetic dentistry may be a better option for creating a stunning smile.
With cosmetic dentistry, we can address multiple aesthetic concerns, including the shape, color, and structure of your teeth. The best part? You can achieve a beautifully improved smile in as little as two days—much faster than the one and a half to three years that orthodontic treatment can take.
Get an Expert Opinion
If you’re unsure which option is right for you, we encourage you to seek a second opinion. At Gorbatov Dentistry, we provide thorough consultations and honest assessments of your dental health. If you’re considering braces but have concerns about the condition of your teeth, give us a call. We’ll evaluate your situation and help you make the best choice for your smile.
In summary, if you’re younger and your teeth are in good condition, orthodontic treatment may be the right option. But if you’re older, or your teeth are damaged or discolored, cosmetic dentistry could give you the beautiful smile you desire much faster and with lasting results.
