Having a healthy, beautiful smile can increase your confidence and boost your self-esteem. Whether you’re in the dating world, looking for a new job or promotion, or simply want to feel better about how you look, cosmetic dentistry can give you the gorgeous, glowing grin you’ve been dreaming of. Not sure if it’s right for you? Here are some common dental flaws, and how this elective branch of dental care may be able to correct them!
Crookedness & Crowding
If you have a bad bite, crowded, or crooked teeth, you may be insecure about showing off your smile. Worse yet, orthodontic problems can make keeping them clean difficult, increasing your risk of bad breath, tooth stains and buildup, and of course gum disease and cavities. Invisalign treatment from your dentist can realign your bite, giving you an even, beautiful smile that’s easier to keep clean, so you’re never afraid to share it with the world.
Misshapen, Chipped, or Too-Small Teeth
Unfortunately, once you’ve chipped a tooth there’s no way for it to grow back. This means that unless you repair it, you’ll be stuck with a jagged smile for life. The good news is that treatments like composite dental bonding and veneers can both help you restore the shape and appearance of chipped, misshapen, or teeth that are too small or stubby. They can also cover teeth with deep stains, and the materials are stain resistant themselves, preventing new discoloration going forward.
Gummy Smile
Do you have a gummy smile that makes your teeth look too small or short? Gum recontouring removes excess tissue that may make you feel insecure about your appearance. This permanent treatment will not only reveal more tooth structure and make your smile appear more symmetrical, but it will also make it easier to keep them clean, reducing your risk of bad breath and gum disease.
Stains & Discoloration
Deep stains and discoloration on the teeth can happen for many reasons. Whether it’s due to medication, diet, habits, or age, it can make smiling embarrassing. The good news is that professional teeth whitening can remove up to eight shades of discoloration, giving you the whiter, brighter smile you deserve!
Remember, there are many reasons you may not love your smile, but in most cases, there’s a cosmetic dentistry treatment that can help. If you’d like to learn more about how this elective branch of dentistry can help you, speak to your dentist today, and get the gorgeous, glowing grin you’ve always dreamed of!
