Cosmetic Dentistry Could Be Right for You

Many people have small issues with their smiles. They’re not glaring problems, but they’re things that you wish you could change. Cosmetic dentistry is a field of dentistry that allows you to actually make those changes! Whether you’ve got an obvious case of misalignment, your teeth are not proportionally sized, or your teeth could use some brightening, cosmetic dentistry can help. You have a number of cosmetic dentistry options to help you overcome imperfections in your smile. Veneers, contouring, whitening, and invisible aligners are all feasible. It’s time to see if cosmetic dentistry could be right for you.

Do Your Teeth Need Help Looking Bright and Clean?

The appearance of your teeth has a lot to do with how you feel about your smile. Bright, white teeth look healthy and pleasing to the eye. However, most people deal with staining throughout their lives. Staining of your enamel is perfectly natural, as it’s a product of the food and drink you consume, as well as your lifestyle habits. Teeth whitening through your dentist can bleach these stains and give you the beautiful, white teeth you’re after.

Are Some of Your Teeth Awkward Sizes or Shapes?

Not everyone’s teeth come in perfectly even and symmetrical. Again, this is totally natural. If one of your teeth is significantly smaller or larger than the others, or it’s an awkward shape, dental bonding and contouring can help. Bonding uses dental resin to add definition and fill in grooves or sharp edges. Contouring gently shapes dental enamel to create an even appearance for your tooth.

Are Many of Your Teeth Misaligned?

For significant alignment issues, you’ll need braces or invisible aligners. Invisible aligners don’t require the uncomfortable, unwieldy brackets that braces do. Plus, they are clear, so they don’t create a distraction from your smile. Invisible aligners are a great way to achieve the straight smile you want.
