How can a smile makeover improve my smile?
Many people wish they could improve the look of their smile. Cosmetic dentistry can provide the changes you want to add that extra shine or give your teeth a more even look. If you have several issues you’d like to have addressed, a smile makeover might be the answer.
How Does a Smile Makeover Work?
A smile makeover combines several cosmetic dentistry procedures to address multiple issues you might have with your smile. For example, you might choose to have teeth whitening as well as inlays or onlays to correct the look of asymmetrical teeth. Procedures often combined to make a smile makeover include:
- Porcelain veneers
- Gum contouring
- Teeth whitening
- Inlays or onlays
- Invisalign
These procedures can address a wide range of cosmetic problems, from misalignment to “gummy” smiles to teeth that are damaged, significantly discolored or asymmetrical.
You and your cosmetic dentist will work together to decide on the best approach for your smile. She can give you detailed feedback on how you can achieve your goals for your smile and provide before and after pictures of previous clients to give you an idea of what your teeth will look like after you’ve had your work done.
Deciding on Cosmetic Dentistry
Feeling self-conscious about your smile can make you uncomfortable about your appearance overall. The resulting decrease in self-confidence can affect your overall quality of life and make it harder for you to interact with people. Cosmetic dentistry can give you a smile you can feel good about.
The best way to find a good cosmetic dentist is to ask friends or family for a referral. If a friend or family member has had a good experience, chances are better that you’ll be happy with your treatment. You can also research cosmetic dentists on the Internet by looking at their websites to determine experience, training, and specialties. Most cosmetic dentists will also provide before and after photos of previous clients so you can get a good idea of what your teeth will look like after your treatment.
