3 Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures that Can Enhance Your Smile

3 Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures that Can Enhance Your Smile

A beautiful smile can positively impact your life in many ways, but none more so than the simple urge to smile more often. If there are features of your smile that you are not pleased with, you may want to consider procedures like those listed below that can improve the look and function of your teeth and gums.

  1. Porcelain Veneers: Patients love the aesthetic effects of porcelain veneers along with the long list of benefits that porcelain offers as a restorative material. The material looks and acts like natural tooth enamel, but it is much easier to clean because it boasts stain resistance. Veneers are used for a variety of purposes including the correction of crooked teeth, poor spacing between the teeth, discoloration, and chips in the teeth. They can be applied to one or many teeth over a series of three office visits.
  2. Gum contouring: The gums are often overlooked when it comes to cosmetic dentistry, but an optimal tooth to gum ratio is part of a beautiful smile. If you have gum tissue that is too visible when you smile, gum contouring can restore the proportionality of your smile. It is a comfortable procedure performed over just a few visits to the dentist’s office.
  3. Clear Orthodontics: Many patients who would benefit from orthodontic work are finding great comfort and successful results with the clear braces systems. These braces can correct common orthodontic issues like overbite, underbite, and crooked teeth without the trouble of metal wires in traditional braces. The transition in your smile will gradually take place before your eyes, and you won’t even be able to see the braces when they are on.
