How Cosmetic Dentistry Can Give You the Perfect Summer Smile

Are you dreading meeting new and familiar faces this summer? If you have flaws and imperfections in your teeth, you may feel self-conscious and try to hide them every time you speak or eat. Luckily, your cosmetic dentist can erase all your issues with dental treatments and help restore your smile and confidence! Read along as we discuss a few services that can improve your appearance.

Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening treatment is one of the most popular cosmetic dental procedures. If your teeth are stained or discolored due to years of drinking wine, coffee, or tea, this treatment can easily make your smile up to eight shades brighter in as little as one hour! Or, if you would like to whiten from the comfort of your home, custom-made take-home kits are available so you can complete treatment at your convenience. Both options can effectively lift even the most stubborn stains and take years off your grin!

Porcelain Veneers

Do you have numerous cosmetic flaws? Porcelain veneers might be the ideal solution for you. The durable sheaths of porcelain are adhered to the front surfaces of teeth, concealing any imperfection from view. With just one procedure, veneers can fix:

• Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth
• Severe staining and discoloration
• Gaps or spacing issues
• Crooked or misaligned teeth

Since the material mimics your original enamel, you can enjoy a natural-looking smile that will last for many summers to come!

Metal-Free Restorations

If you have a tooth that needs repair, metal-free restorations can restore not only its strength but beauty as well. The crowns, bridges, inlays, and onlays are made of 100% zirconia, which is a high-quality ceramic. Your cosmetic dentist uses that material to create a restoration that’s so lifelike, no one will even tell you’ve had dental work! Your results will look and feel virtually seamless.

Direct Bonding

Do you have a minor stain, chip, or gap that’s bothered you for years? Direct bonding might be the solution you’re looking for. In as little as one hour, your cosmetic dentist can make all your small concerns disappear. He’ll start by applying a color-matched composite resin to the flawed tooth and sculpt it to perfection. After it’s hardened with a curing light, you’re done! You can walk out that same day and head to the pool party with brand-new and flawless pearly whites.

It’s not too late to enhance your summer smile. Ask your cosmetic dentist about one of these treatments – soon, you will be beaming with restored confidence!
