Bleaching - a type of teeth whitening treatment used to lighten or whiten teeth. Bonding - a technique for attaching dental restorations to teeth. Bonding can be used to attach white composite fillings, veneers, crowns and bridges. Bridge - a permanent prosthesis that is made to replace one or more missing teeth. Attaches to existing teeth on either side of the space.

Cap - oftentimes used as a common term for a crown, "cap" specifically refers to a crown covering one of the frontal teeth (canines or incisors).

Composite Fillings - Composite resin fillings are bonded to a tooth to repair minimal tooth fractures, tooth decay, or otherwise damaged teeth.

Cosmetic Dentistry - A specialized field of dentistry that focuses on purely aesthetic treatments designed to improve the appearance of the teeth.

Crown - A dental crown is a type of restorative prosthetic appliance that is used to replace all or part of a missing tooth. In the past, dental crowns have been manufactured by lab technicians, though more recently, they have been manufactured by CAD-CAM technology. 

Dental Implant - a dental implant is a type of prosthetic device that is inserted into the upper or lower jawbone, onto which an artificial tooth, crown or bridge can be anchored. Dental implants are typically constructed from titanium.

Denture(s) - artificial teeth that are intended for the partial or complete replacement of missing teeth. Dentures differ from other replacements, such as a dental bridge or dental implant, in that they are removable. 

Filling - a type of substance that is inserted into a hollow part of the tooth to restore the tooth shape or gradation. Fillings are typically used to refill the tooth area that has been removed due to tooth decay. Dental fillings are composed of metal, porcelain, alloy or resin.

Fixed Bridge - a pontic, or porcelain ceramic tooth replica, that is bonded to two adjacent porcelain-crowned teeth without the ability to remove it.

Gingiva - the soft tissue surrounding the teeth commonly known as the gums.

Gingivectomy - the modification of the "gums" to make the teeth and the smile appear more pleasing.

Impression - a mold of the teeth.

Implant - titanium posts surgically embedded into the jawbone to act as artificial teeth roots for the replacement of missing teeth.

Inlays - a laboratory-fabricated porcelain tooth restoration.

Mouth Tray - a removable, clear plastic appliance worn over the upper or lower teeth.

Onlays - restorative devices that can be used in place of dental fillings to treat tooth decay / damage. As opposed to being molded into place within the mouth (as with dental fillings), dental onlays are fabricated in a dental laboratory using CAD / CAM technology. While inlays are set within a hole in the tooth, onlays are placed on the surface of the tooth.

Open Bite - a condition in which upper and lower front teeth do not meet.

Prosthesis - an artificial appliance such as a bridge, denture, or implant, used to replace missing teeth.

Root Canal - a dental treatment involving the removal of diseased or injured nerve from inside the tooth.

Smile Contouring - selective reshaping of parts of teeth to improve their appearance.

Veneer(s) - a type of thin material that is used for restorative or aesthetic purposes, veneers are manufactured from porcelain or composite materials.
