How Dental Cosmetic Work Can Make A Difference To Your Smile

For many of us, imperfections in our teeth can leave us feeling self-conscious or even avoiding smiling to hide them. However, there are plenty of options available in order to help you be more confident in your smile and achieve your dental goals. In this post, we will be covering what these options are and the benefits of each to help you make an informed decision. Keep reading to learn more.

Reasons To Invest In Dental Work

There are a variety of reasons why someone may want to invest in dental work. Whether to improve the appearance of their teeth or to get rid of pain and discomfort. Some dental corrections have the benefit of being able to help with both, such as braces. Our smile is one of the most noticeable things people see when they look at us andchanging the color or shape of our teeth can make a huge difference to our entire face. It can even affect the shape of our faces. As well as appearance, dental health is incredibly important, so it’s worth investing in it.

Crowns And Veneers

If you want to completely overhaul the appearance of your teeth, then crowns and veneers are your best options. The main differences between crowns and veneersare the materials they can be made from, as well as the coverage they have over the teeth. Veneers are usually made from porcelain and only cover the front face of the tooth. Crowns, however, can be made from both porcelain and composite resin, which is highly durable. They also cover the whole surface of the tooth. For this reason, having crowns fitted tends to be more expensive than veneers. It’s best to speak to a professional dentist if you’re considering crowns or veneers, as they will be able to advise you on the best choice for you.

Bonding

Bonding can also help improve the appearance of your teeth by replacing the front surface of your tooth with a resin. This is a good choice if you’ve got a chipped tooth as it can be applied to individual teeth. The color of the resin can be matched identically to the natural shade of your teeth in order for the bonded tooth to blend seamlessly in. The resin is highly durable and will be a long-lasting investment for your money.

Braces And Aligners

Braces and aligners can alter the positioning of your teeth, to correct things such as:

  • crooked teeth
  • overcrowding
  • overbite and underbite

These dental features can cause issues ranging from discomfort to struggling to eat, so it’s important to find a solution such as braces to correct them. It also has the benefit of improving the aesthetic quality of teeth by making them straighter and more uniform in appearance. Traditional braces come in the form of metal braces as well as ceramic and need to be fitted by a dentist. Aligners differ from braces in that they are virtually invisible and can be removed whenever you need to take them out. Aligners are closely fitted to go over your teeth and slowly adjust the alignment to create a straighter smile. They tend to be favored by people due tothe practicality of them over traditional braces. However, if the positioning of the teeth is more severe, then braces may be a more appropriate choice than aligners. It’s best to speak to your dentist for their professional advice following a consultation where they can assess your teeth. Braces and aligners priceswill vary depending on your supplier and the individual requirements of your teeth.

Removing Yellowing And Staining

Yellowing and staining of the teeth are incredibly common and possibly the biggest reason most people are insecure about their teeth. Staining can happen so easily that it is almost unavoidable. For example, drinks such as coffee, red wine, and soda can all cause discoloration of the enamel. Luckily, there are plenty of options available to help you combat this though, even for those on a tighter budget. Whilst professional whitening from your dentist will provide the best and most long-lasting results, it will cost more than other whitening options. There are also plenty of whitening products available on the market that can be more cost-effective but with more temporary results.

Tooth Contouring

Tooth contouring, as the name suggests, involves changing the shape of your natural enamel. This option is popular for those that only have minor imperfections to their teeth and don’t want the drastic change in appearance that veneers and crowns can sometimes cause. During contouring, parts of the enamel of each individual tooth will be shaved off to achieve the perfect shape, improving straightening and uniformity.

Finding Cosmetic Dental Providers

When considering any of the treatments mentioned, it’s important to make sure you only have them carried out by a qualified and reputable dentist. Do plenty of research before choosing a provider. Read through reviews and previous customer experiences, as well as making sure your provider has all the necessary qualifications and licenses. Whilst it can be tempting to opt for dentists that have much lower prices, this can sometimes mean the quality and integrity of their work are compromised. The best dentists with the best results for their customers will likely charge higher prices and be more in demand.
