25 Jun What is a smile makeover?
Improving your appearance often starts with your smile. A smile makeover may involve whitening dull, stained, or discolored teeth; updating old silver fillings; fixing chipped or uneven dentition; straightening teeth; or replacing missing teeth. Whatever dental malady you may be facing, our cosmetic dentist has a solution for your consideration.
Multiple Options to Enhance Your Smile
Crooked or uneven teeth – If you’re looking for a way to improve your smile, porcelain veneers may be the best answer for you. Veneers are wafer thin, tooth colored shells that are made to be cemented to the front of teeth requiring repair. They are suitable to close unwanted gaps, make teeth appear more even, or maybe even to fix chipped or broken teeth.
A more long term and permanent solution for some of these same problems may be resolved by having teeth straightened. Teeth straightening with Invisalign clear aligners allows teens and adults to enjoy straight teeth using transparent “braces”. With Invisalign, the patient will remove aligners for meals and snacks so diet changes are not required; and teeth are brushed and flossed without any metal to obstruct teeth cleaning. The final result means teeth are permanently straightened which may ultimately mean healthier teeth and gums for life.
For stained or discolored teeth, again veneers may be an option; however, teeth whitening either in the office during one brief visit or whitening in the privacy of your home provide choices for you. And teeth whitening offers a very noticeable change quickly and economically.
No More Silver Fillings or Missing Teeth!
There are many ways your dentist can use a tooth-colored filling material to improve your smile. Old amalgam fillings can be replaced with virtually impossible to detect and safe tooth colored composite fillings. A chipped tooth can be repaired as well.
A missing tooth can ruin your smile. But dental implants are fast becoming the most popular way to rectify this problem. The implant is a small titanium post that is embedded into gum tissue where tooth loss has occurred. Over the next few months, bone is grafting to the implant to provide a secure base for the cosmetic restoration that will be affixed to it.
