Are you frustrated by stubborn stains you can’t seem to brush away, or are small chips in your teeth marring your appearance? If so, you might want to speak to your dentist about enhancing your smile. They offer several cosmetic services that can improve your grin, and it’s normal to feel overwhelmed by the options. Scheduling a consultation allows them to check your current dental condition and discuss your questions and concerns.
Then, based on their findings, they might recommend one of the following services to help you reach your goals. Read on to learn more!
Upgrade #1: Teeth Whitening
Many people longing for bright white teeth purchase commercially available products only to be disappointed by the lack of results. Others over-apply the bleaching agents and end up with tooth sensitivity- yikes!
Thankfully, your dentist can safely lighten your smile by several shades with a single in-office appointment that delivers instant results. They can also provide a take-home kit containing professional-grade gels and a custom-fitted tray for optimal results from the comfort of your home. As a bonus, they’ll likely examine your mouth first to ensure no sign of cavities or gum disease might interfere with your treatment.
Upgrade #2: Invisalign
Even those who historically always had perfectly straight teeth might notice that they’ve begun to drift out of alignment over time. If yours have become overcrowded or developed gaps, you might already be researching different orthodontic methods.
Although braces are the tried-and-true method, many teens and adults want to avoid having bulky metal brackets bonded to their teeth. That’s where Invisalign comes in. This clear alternative utilizes plastic trays that are customized to fit snuggly over your pearly whites to gently reposition them without causing additional anxiety over your appearance.
Upgrade #3: Veneers
If you’re looking for a versatile solution that can simultaneously address one or multiple aesthetic concerns, you might benefit from veneers. These thin shells are made from resilient ceramic bonded to the front surface of your pearly whites to mask minor issues. They often are used to cover discoloration, chips, cracks, and slightly gapped or crooked teeth.
Remember that your dentist must prepare your teeth by removing a thin layer of enamel so these prosthetics can be placed flush against your gumline. This protective outer layer doesn’t grow back, so you’ll need a restoration to protect your teeth moving forward. Thankfully, veneers can last 15+ years with the right care, making them an excellent long-term solution.
