A beautiful smile can help you feel confident in the way you look and when you interact with others. On the other hand, if there are elements of your smile that you do not like you may feel self-conscious or even ashamed. There are a number of factors that impact the appearance of your smile. Teeth can become stained over time by the things you eat and drink or the medications you take. Your teeth can sustain damage and become cracked or chipped. Your genetics also come into play and impact the way your teeth look. If there is an element of your smile that you would like to change – cosmetic dentistry can help. You can restore your smile with the help of one or more cosmetic procedures.

Whiten

Has your once bright smile turned dull and yellow? Your teeth are constantly under attack from elements that can cause staining. The things that you eat and drink can lead to surface stains on your teeth. Professional teeth whitening is a relatively quick and easy process that can remove multiple layers of surface stains in one or two treatments. When you go in for professional teeth whitening you will walk out with a noticeably whiter and brighter smile.

There are some stains that are more than surface deep. Certain types of medications and injury can cause discoloration to your teeth below the surface. This type of stain will not respond to surface whitening methods. Fortunately, you still have options for getting a whiter smile even if you have deep stains. Porcelain veneers and crowns are two cosmetic dental procedures that can cover deep stains and provide you with a white smile.

Repair

Do you have teeth that are in need of repair? Teeth can become cracked or chipped in the course of everyday life. Living with these types of injuries can be uncomfortable, make further injury more likely, and cause you to be unhappy with your smile. Porcelain veneers, porcelain crowns, and esthetic bonding are three cosmetic procedures that can repair chipped or cracked teeth. Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain that are bonded the surface of the tooth. They can hide discoloration, cracks, and chips to restore the look of your smile. Porcelain crowns encapsulate the entire tooth and can be used to repair the same types of damage as veneers as well as more extensive damage. Esthetic bonding is the process of bonding a tooth-colored composite resin to your tooth. This process can repair a number of dental problems.

Straighten

Are your teeth out of alignment? Cosmetic dentistry can help you get the straight smile that you desire. Advances in technology have made it possible for many people to get straight teeth using invisible aligners instead of traditional braces. This cosmetic procedure is a great option for people who want a straight smile but do not want to get braces.
