Sitting in summertime sun and soaking in the warm air is a type of relaxation that you just can’t beat. Maybe you’ve been spending a lot of time sprawling in your backyard, and it’s got you pondering. “Wouldn’t it be nice if I could take a bit of sunshine with me?”
Or maybe you think this sounds melodramatic. Still, it would be nice to freshen up your look, wouldn’t it? Cosmetic dentistry can certainly bring brightness to your smile, but if you’re not into that, there are plenty of other solutions that might catch your attention. Keep reading to learn more about your options!
Rival the Sun with Teeth Whitening
Cosmetic dentistry doesn’t get much brighter than a teeth whitening treatment! Over-the-counter products are dull and more often than not, completely ineffective. At your dentist’s office, you could have pearly white teeth in as little as an hour.
Alternatively, if you’d rather spend as much time outside as possible this summer, you can ask for a take-home kit. It’ll take about two weeks instead of one hour to see full results, but your dentist’s professional kit will white-out sandy-colored stains just as thoroughly as an in-office treatment. You can achieve the perfect smile at your leisure!
Enjoy the Flaw-Concealing Coverage of Dental Veneers
Dental veneers can also make teeth appear whiter, but they work just a bit differently. Your dentist will custom-craft a thin shell that matches the look and vibe of your other teeth. This means they can sculpt your veneers to be whatever shape and size you want. After adhering the shell to the front of your teeth, any flaws, damage, awkward sizing, or discoloration you wanted to forget about will be effectively concealed from view.
Besides enhancing your look, dental veneers also provide some extra protection. Patients with weaker enamels would definitely benefit from this option!
Restore and Repair Your Teeth, Metal-Free
Dental technology has advanced to the point where professionals can make any restoration or repair blend in seamlessly with your natural pearly whites. That includes dental crowns, fillings, and bonding. Tooth decay or damage doesn’t have to prevent you from fully enjoying all your fun summer outfits! Leave metallic restorations and discolored bonding in the 70’s and let modern techniques get your teeth photo ready.
Not all cosmetic dental treatments have to be flashy. As you can see, even small improvements can drastically change the way your smile looks. Whether you want your smile to shine like the sun or appear more consistently flawless, give your dentist a call. They can consult with you about the finer details of your treatment and will make sure you get results that will brighten your summer.
