Having a smile you can be proud of makes it much easier to engage socially and maintain a professional and trustworthy appearance at work. Unfortunately, many people are anxious about showing their teeth due to frustrating defects that can be resolved with cosmetic dental treatments. Here\u2019s a quick look at a few common dental imperfections and how they can be resolved as part of a customized smile makeover<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Dental Stains Don\u2019t Have to Remain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Teeth can become stained for a variety of reasons like age, injury, genetic conditions, certain medications, poor oral hygiene, and frequent exposure to discoloring foods and beverages like coffee, tea, red wine, cola, juice, candy, berries, and dark sauces. Thankfully, your dentist can lift stubborn stains with noninvasive teeth whitening treatments. However, especially severe stains may need to be addressed with veneers, Lumineers, or metal-free dental crowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Resolve Chips and Cracks for a Smile that Attracts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Many people have dental defects such as chips, cracks, gaps, and misshapenness that can be concealed with gorgeous and lifelike restorations such as veneers, Lumineers, and metal-free dental crowns. These devices are designed to be fitted over troubled teeth to rebuild and reshape them into more functional and visually pleasing forms. They are typically placed over two appointments scheduled about two weeks apart, and they are constructed based on detailed measurements of your bite to ensure comfortable and lifelike restorations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Correct Dental Misalignments for a Smile of Great Refinement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mild to moderate dental misalignments like gaps, crowding, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and open bites can often be resolved using removable clear aligners that are virtually invisible when worn from Invisalign. This treatment is a more comfortable alternative to traditional braces that allows patients to straighten their smiles without dietary restrictions or conspicuous metal parts attached to their teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since oral infections like gum disease and tooth decay will disqualify you from most cosmetic dental procedures, your smile makeover may include restorative treatments designed to resolve them. Your dentist will be happy to help you achieve your ideal smile with a customized treatment plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
