You show off your smile during life’s best moments — when you’re happy and laughing. You want to experience those moments of joy without reservation. If you’re someone who is constantly thinking about their smile — because of yellowing or misshapen teeth — you may not be getting the most out of life. You don’t want to feel self conscious in social situations, you want to feel comfortable. Having a beautiful smile that you don’t have to think about helps you feel better. If you are constantly worried about the state of your smile, it’s time to explore cosmetic dentistry options.

Improve the Appearance of Your Smile with Bonding and Contouring

There are simple cosmetic procedures that will allow your smile to shine. If you have an uneven smile, or if your teeth are not proportionally sized, a procedure like bonding and contouring can help. Dental bonding uses dental resin to add volume and shape to your teeth. This treatment can fill any grooves and gaps, or help repair a surface crack in your tooth. Contouring allows your dentist to shape the existing enamel that you have. Again, this can normalize the shape and size of your teeth to create a beautiful smile. Your dentist can even use contouring treatment on your gum tissue to improve an excessively gummy smile.

Perk Up Yellowing Teeth with Teeth Whitening

If you notice a yellow color on your teeth when you look in the mirror, it can create a distraction. You may feel self conscious about showing your teeth in photographs or in public. At-home teeth whitening can remove the yellow pigment from your teeth and give you a bright, beautiful smile. At-home treatment can be completed on your own time, and you’ll likely see results in just a few weeks time. There’s no telling how big of a confidence boost you may experience with a whiter, brighter smile.

Veneers Give You a Smile You Don’t Have to Think About

Dental veneers are yet another cosmetic treatment option that you have to improve the appearance of your smile. Dental veneers are thin sheets of dental porcelain that your dentist will fabricate to create an even set. The veneers fit on your existing teeth, using the healthy structure that you already have in place. Your dentist can even create your dental veneers in such a way that it gives you a brighter smile! You’ll still need to care for your teeth like you would normally do, but you won’t have to worry about the state of your smile anymore.
