Everyone wants a beautiful white smile. Unfortunately, many of us need a little help a long the way to reach our perfect smile goals. If you were born with perfectly straight teeth that fit comfortably in your mouth, that is what everyone else is trying to achieve. If you have a spouse, children, friends, and family who aren’t as lucky to have a naturally created perfect smile, chances are cosmetic dentistry will help them reach their goal. Let’s take a few minutes to learn more about cosmetic dentistry so you can help your loved one make the right decision to suit their needs.
People all over the world do their best to maintain a healthy mouth, gums, and teeth. Cosmetic dentistry aims at helping people create a positive change in their smile and teeth. Cosmetic dentistry is designed to complement the natural look of teeth and help make smiles beautiful, white, straight and healthy.
If you have slightly crooked teeth, missing teeth, discolored teeth, cracked teeth or other minor issues, cosmetic dentistry can help you get the smile you always wanted.
The most common cosmetic dentistry procedures are teeth whitening, veneers, dental implants, and Invisalign.
Teeth whitening is often the first cosmetic dentistry procedure people choose. Even crooked or discolored teeth will look improved after completing teeth whitening sessions. Patients often feel their self-esteem improve after getting their teeth whitened. Sometimes they report smiling more often due to their new found confidence.
Dental implants are extremely helpful for people who have decayed or missing teeth. This procedure involves implanting a new “fake” tooth that matches the color and shape of existing teeth. This procedure usually helps people who have suffered from tooth loss feel like themselves again after receiving this helpful procedure.
Veneers are popular for people who are looking to achieve a fairly instant straight white smile. Depending on your specific situation the procedure might require a few office visits, but generally, it is completed as quickly as possible. Veneers involve covering the natural tooth with thin porcelain and shaped to look natural. It provides the patient’s with a beautiful long-lasting smile. This procedure is permanent, however, in the future, you need to replace them as the veneers age or become discolored.
