We all want to live as long as possible. Unfortunately, few of us want that age to show in the way we look. You may spend hundreds of dollars a month on expensive creams or procedures. Whether it’s Botox for wrinkles, plastic surgery to tighten your skin, or cosmetic dental procedures, you may consider undergoing some sort of efforts to shave a few years off at some point in the aging process. Evanston dentist, Dr. Brent Engelberg is here to tell you that you might reach satisfactory results by focusing on your smile instead.
Wearing Down your Vibrance
Cracked, chipped, worn down, and/or discolored smiles make you appear older and exhausted. Fortunately, cosmetic dental issues are usually much simpler to remedy than skin wrinkles, dark spots, sunken skin, and blotches. Teeth naturally weardown over time because you use them so much for cutting and grinding food. You may wear them even faster if you are a teeth grinder at night. At middle age, your two upper front teeth, for example, are likely to measure at two millimeters shorter than they were two decades prior. This shortening creates the illusion of shorter teeth, or in severe cases, complete toothlessness. Shortened teeth allow your lips to sink inward which creates a thinness to your smile. Keeping your grin full, soft, and buxom softens your smile for a more vibrant and youthful appearance.
A Time Machine for your Smile
Elongating your front teeth with dental bonding or porcelain veneers will make a huge difference. For bonding, tooth-colored material is applied to your smile and shaped by Dr. Engelberg to create a flawless, youthful look. This is a great procedure if your needs are fairly subtle. In cases which are more severe, porcelain veneers are thin shells which are designed to cover over flaws on the fronts of teeth. Whichever method you opt for, Dr. Engelberg is adept at matching colors to your surrounding natural teeth so no one will know why you look so young these days.
