Human teeth go through a lot over decades of use, and the pressure of chewing and exposure to acids and dyes in foods can eventually leave their mark on your smile. Luckily, your cosmetic dentist is trained and equipped to administer remarkable aesthetic treatments that can lift years from your teeth and give you a stunning new grin. Here are only a few of the treatments your cosmetic dentist can provide to make your smile more gorgeous and youthful.
Bite Back at the Years with Porcelain Veneers
If you’ve watched movies or television in the past few decades, you have almost undoubtedly seen many media personalities and Hollywood stars who have transformed their smiles with porcelain veneers. Teeth can develop a range of unsightly defects such as chips, cracks, stains, and gaps over the years, and this versatile cosmetic treatment can cover troubled teeth with beautifully lifelike porcelain shells. Porcelain veneers can create a natural-looking and gorgeous new smile in as few as two appointments, leaving patients looking younger and more vigorous.
Conceal a Few Decades with Dental Bonding
Dental bonding can be an economical and fantastically effective way to cover up defects like chips, cracks, gaps, and stains, and it can be performed painlessly without anesthesia in minutes during a routine dental appointment. This treatment involves your dentist applying a small amount of tooth-colored composite resin to cover up or fill in a defect before sculpting the putty-like substance to match the shape of your tooth and hardening it with a specialized light. This treatment can quickly give you a more youthful smile, and its results can last for seven years with excellent care.
See Your Smile Brightening with Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening treatments from your dentist can lift dental stains and discoloration caused by years of exposure to heavily dyed and pigmented foods and beverages. These treatments come in the form of an in-office procedure that can be completed in about an hour or a take-home kit designed to be administered at home over two weeks. In either case, your smile will be up to eight shades brighter.
Having youthful and beautiful teeth you can be proud of can make it much easier to smile confidently in your daily life, at social events, and during special occasions. Consulting with your cosmetic dentist can help you find out which of these treatments may be right for you.
