Abstract
The term cosmetics conventionally encompasses the application of beautifying
products and processes for skin and may also be applied to teeth. Although cosmetic dentistry
strives to produce immediate amelioration of appearance, it is not durable, can invoke undesirable
tissue reactions, may be gratuitously decorative, may not be ideally functional and
could have compromising results. There are differences between cosmetic and esthetic dentistry.
This appraisal re-affirms differences between them and provides examples to illustrate
differences.
