Have you Achieved your Summer Smile?

Summer is in full swing, and it seems that most people focus on browning their skin more than whitening their teeth when they go for their dream summer appearance. However, while excessive tanning is proven to make you look older than your years, whitening your teeth can actually make you look significantly younger. Perhaps you should consider putting down the suntan oil and picking up the bleaching gel, or tending to your teeth in some cosmetic way. There are so many avenues for fixing a flawed smile which are sure to make your grin beam as brightly as the summer sun.

Teeth Whitening? Go With a Professional

Many dentists offer at least one option for teeth whitening, but some (especially cosmetic dentists) offer several. The two most common are some form of:

At-home whitening: Professional at-home teeth whitening can be implemented by you at your convenience. A trusted cosmetic dentist will provide you with custom-fit whitening trays and powerful dental grade bleaching gel to achieve amazing results in the comfort of your home.

In-office whitening: Zoom! Bleaching, for example, produces dramatic whitening results in as little as 60 minutes of your time. Your whitening procedure can be supplemented by in between at-home treatment touch-ups.

Porcelain Veneers

Perhaps your teeth do not respond to whitening treatments because your stains come from the inside of teeth (intrinsic stains) but you’re tired of the chips, cracks, breaks, or deep stains that you see in the mirror when you smile. If your teeth need more than just a good whitening, porcelain veneers are a wonderful option for perfecting your smile. Veneers are one of our most popular and effective cosmetic dental procedures because they cover over so many varying dental issues. Once the thin tooth-colored veneers are adhered to your prepared teeth, the porcelain is shaped to provide you with the smile of your dreams.
