Do you have cosmetic flaws in your smile that make you feel self-conscious? It can be challenging to show off your smile with confidence when you aren’t happy with your appearance. Fortunately, there are various cosmetic services available to address dental imperfections and help you achieve pearly whites that you are proud to show off. Here are some of the most common issues that they address.
Tooth Discoloration
This is one of the most common reasons why people are unhappy with the appearance of their teeth. It can be caused by various factors, including cigarettes, coffee, and red wine. Discoloration is also a natural part of aging. Fortunately, this can be lessened with professional teeth whitening. Your dentist can provide you with a take-home whitening kit to help you achieve a brighter smile in just a couple of weeks.
Crooked Teeth
Not everyone is lucky enough to naturally develop a straight smile. In addition to not being as pleasing to the eye, misalignment can make it difficult to keep your teeth clean. This increases your risk of gum disease and tooth decay. Fortunately, you don’t need to get traditional metal braces to straighten your smile. Invisalign uses a series of clear aligners to slowly shift the teeth into their rightful locations. This way, you can achieve a straighter smile without a mouthful of metal brackets and wires.
Uneven Teeth
Irregularly shaped teeth can be caused by various factors, like genetics and teeth grinding. This can make you appear older, and you could end up with issues related to your jaw and facial structure. Gum recontouring can be used to remove excess gum tissue and leave you with an even gumline. Dental bonding and veneers can even out the chewing surfaces of your teeth, giving you a balanced, proportionate smile.
Broken Teeth
Whether you have small chips or larger breaks, there are various solutions. Small cracks and chips can be addressed with dental bonding. For larger problems, your dentist may be able to preserve the healthy tooth structure with a veneer or dental crown. If your tooth is beyond repair, you can discuss tooth replacement options to complete your smile.
