If you have been shopping for better clothes or trendy accessories, only to realize you still feel insecure, could it be because your smile isn’t as lovely as you would like? In many ways, your smile is your most important accessory, and it can either enhance your confidence or take away from it. If there are imperfections or flaws in your smile, cosmetic dentistry can help correct them, so that you’re left with a smile you’re proud of, and looking and feeling your best.
What Does Cosmetic Dentistry Offer?
Modern cosmetic dentistry offers a number of treatment options including professional whitening, teeth bonding and contouring, gum contouring, and veneers. If your only concern is discoloration, professional teeth whitening could be all you need in order to love your smile. However, if there are a number of imperfections with your smile, a skilled dentist can combine treatments. By customizing a plan designed to meet your specific needs, you can enhance the look of your smile while preserving its unique characteristics.
No one wants a one-size-fits all smile, after all.
Will The Treatment(s) Last?
It’s important to care for any restorative or cosmetic treatments in the way your dentist advises. Some materials are much more prone to staining or scratching than others, and may require special cleaners to properly care for them. Other options, like porcelain veneers and crowns can be cared for the same way you care for your natural teeth. Your cosmetic dentist will give you specific directions regarding how to best preserve your newly improved smile.
It’s also important to take good care of your overall oral health, through proper at-home hygiene routines and regular professional cleanings. These are vital steps to ensuring you enjoy your smile – and your cosmetic treatment – long term.
