Cosmetic Dentistry: Meant for More than Just Celebrities!

If you’ve ever wondered how celebrities get those gleaming white smiles you see on TV, the answer is usually cosmetic dentistry! Modern dental treatments are remarkably advanced, so much so that there’s a treatment tailored to you for just about any issue you could have.

And that doesn’t just go for celebrities—these cosmetic treatments are available for everyone. If you’re wondering, here are some treatments that could be just perfect for you.

Teeth Whitening

Have you ever wished your smile could be just a little bit brighter? If so, teeth whitening can give you the glistening teeth you’ve always dreamed of in just one appointment!

Your dentist can layer a bleaching solution onto your teeth and use a specialized light to allow it to penetrate deeper into the enamel. If you’d rather get the treatment from the comfort of your own home, your dentist can also give you whitening trays that can allow you to brighten your smile anywhere you’d like.

Direct Bonding

If you have chips, cracks, yellowing, or gaps, you may be surprised to hear that one treatment could deal with all of these issues. As it turns out, dental bonding can do just that.

Using a tooth-colored composite resin, a lot like what’s used in modern fillings, your dentist can patch up small aesthetic issues. The treatment is quick, convenient, painless, and can completely change the appearance of your teeth.

Veneers

Maybe instead of fixing small issues, you’re looking for a complete transformation. If you want a set of pearly whites to rival those on the red carpet, veneers can give them to you.

Your dentist will remove a microscopic layer of your enamel and replace it with a thin shell of porcelain, one that will simulate a perfect tooth. They can do this for any tooth strong enough to hold the thin shell, and can therefore repair a wide variety of aesthetic issues.

As you can see, there are plenty of cosmetic treatments that are perfect for anyone, not just celebrities. Who knows—one may even be exactly what you’ve been looking for!
