Would you like to makeover your smile this summer? There is still time to make some quick and easy changes that won’t take very long, or cost a fortune. Quite often, this is all that is needed and one of the simplest treatments is tooth whitening.
Safety First
So why should you visit your dentist at the Cosmetic Dentistry Center for this treatment, as after all there are plenty over-the-counter whitening kits that can do a great job, or will they? It is true that you could purchase one of these kits, but you risk harming your teeth and suffering unpleasant side effects as a result.
We check the condition of your teeth before safely whitening them, minimizing the risk of any side effects while ensuring this treatment is safe for your teeth; you only have one set of adult teeth so why risk them for the sake of trying to save a few dollars? We use the Zoom whitening system, one of the most respected and most tested names on the market, for the simple reason that it delivers excellent results. But what happens if you have some teeth that won’t respond to tooth whitening?
Dental Bonding and Dental Veneers
When you visit our dental office, we can assess your teeth to see if they will respond well to whitening. Some teeth, for example any that are internally stained may not respond so well. There is an easy solution, which is to use dental bonding or veneers to cover up these teeth so they blend in well with your newly whitened smile. It is best to whiten first as we will be able to get a much better match to your teeth.
Dental bonding uses composite resin in shades and translucencies that will closely match your teeth. The material is applied in small increments before being shaped and polished to give a natural appearance. This treatment is pretty hard wearing and should last for several years. Porcelain veneers are more expensive but do last a lot longer. These will also take a bit longer to complete as you’ll need at least two visits to our dental office, but the results can be amazing.
Got a Bit Longer? Think about Tooth Straightening
Many people think that the tooth straightening will take years to complete and in some cases where teeth are significantly out of position this might be true. However quite a few people just have teeth that are slightly misaligned and don’t really have any major problems with their bite. In this case one of the newer cosmetic braces systems can often deliver great results within just a few months. This treatment can be a more conservative option than trying to straighten teeth with veneers and is well worth thinking about if the overall shape and size of these teeth is pretty good already.
There are so many different things we can do to help improve your smile in a relatively short space of time so if you’d like to give it a boost in time for summer why not book an appointment with one of our highly experienced cosmetic dentists? We can assess your smile and build a treatment plan based on your timeframe and budget.
