If you’re not pleased with the way your teeth look, you have more options than ever to achieve the picture-perfect smile you desire. Your cosmetic dentist can transform your teeth and self-esteem using a personalized strategy, like porcelain veneers. Your first step to an attractive smile is as simple as scheduling a consultation. They’ll examine your teeth and gums to ensure they are healthy before moving forward with any elective treatments. Although you may feel additional procedures aren’t necessary, the foundation for a beautiful smile relies on your oral health, and here’s why.
Promotes Good Oral Hygiene Habits
Although few people are born with naturally attractive smiles, many aesthetic problems are caused by more than genetics, such as poor oral hygiene habits. Cosmetic dental treatments can correct a variety of concerns, but if you don’t commit to brushing, flossing, and routine dental care, your new smile won’t last very long.
If you tend to skip brushing before bed or don’t visit your dentist as often as you should, cosmetic dentistry will just put a Band-Aid on the problem. If your oral hygiene routine continues to fall short, your new smile will fail, and underlying issues will worsen.
Your cosmetic dentist wants to see you’re committed to a healthier lifestyle, including better oral hygiene habits. By doing so, you can also feel confident your new smile can last for years to enjoy a long-term investment.
Fixes Multiple Issues at Once
If you have untreated cavities or gum disease, elective procedures can aggravate the issues if they aren’t resolved first, which can lead to a big problem down the road. If you have preexisting dental concerns, like a cavity or broken tooth, you aren’t disqualified from cosmetic dentistry. Contrary to what you might have heard, cosmetic treatments offer more than just aesthetic benefits. Many procedures can also improve the health or function of a tooth, like metal-free crowns, veneers, or dental bonding. As a result, your dentist can restore your oral health while also giving you the beautiful smile you deserve. You won’t need to choose between a healthy or attractive smile.
Invest in a Healthy, Confident Smile
Underlying dental issues may add another step in your journey to the smile of your dreams; however, it’s time well-spent to get flawless results. Your dentist will look at your teeth and gums while taking time to learn more about your concerns. They’ll create a plan based on your needs and goals using specific treatments, which can include:
- Porcelain Veneers
- Metal-Free Dental Crowns
- Dental Bonding
- Invisalign
- Teeth Whitening
- Gum Recontouring
You’ll invest in better oral health and higher self-esteem using the latest innovations in dentistry. Don’t let untreated dental issues stop you from achieving your best smile.
