The sun is shining and warmer temperatures are here. You’re probably spending more time outdoors. As you work on your tan and get your body beach-ready, is your smile preventing you from looking and feeling your best? Cosmetic dentistry can give you a bright, beautiful smile to be proud of. You won’t require extensive dental work. Here are 3 popular cosmetic treatments that can get your smile ready for summer.
1. Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are among the most popular elective dental services, and for good reasons. A veneer is a thin shell that covers the front side of a tooth to enhance its overall color, size, and shape. Bonding veneers to the teeth that show when you smile can cover various imperfections at once, like stains, chips, and gaps.
Veneers are made of porcelain because it resembles enamel and is strong. It also allows less enamel to be removed during the preparation process, making the procedure minimally invasive. Your radiant new smile can last for 10 years or longer with the correct care, like brushing and flossing.
2. Cosmetic Bonding
Cosmetic dental bonding offers a lot of bang for your buck. It has both cosmetic and restorative benefits. A composite resin is shaded to the color of enamel to blend in with a tooth when used to fix minor issues, like chips, cavities, cracks, and exposed tooth roots.
After just one appointment, you can enjoy noticeable results that will last for 5 to 15 years before needing to be replaced. Cosmetic bonding looks natural and is among the most affordable elective dental treatments.
3. Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening can turn back the clock to reveal a youthful smile. Your teeth can get up to 8 shades whiter using a professional-grade whitening system. Your vibrant results can last for many months or years, depending on your aftercare routine.
You can keep your teeth their brightest with good oral hygiene at home and regular care from your dentist. Limit your contact with anything that may stain your teeth, including coffee, smoking, and red wine.
It’s never too late to invest in a beautiful, confident smile. Make this summer memorable by transforming your teeth into the smile of your dreams.
