A New Smile Just in Time for the Holidays

The holidays are just around the corner, and if you do not like what you see in the mirror, schedule an appointment with your dentist for cosmetic dental solutions.

Your dentist can advise you on the best dental restorations to give you a smile that you will be proud to show off. Having a smile makeover is the best gift that anyone can give themselves. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, a healthy smile can boost self-confidence and increase self-esteem.

When you visit your dentist for a smile makeover consultation your teeth and gums will be checked to make sure you mouth is healthy enough for Dental Veneers, Onlays or Inlays, Dental Bonding, Whitening for Life, Crowns, Bridges, or Dental Implants. If you are dealing with gum disease such as gingivitis or periodontal disease, your dentist will recommend a plan to make your teeth and gums healthy enough for cosmetic dental treatments.

If your gum disease has progressed, your dentist may refer you to a Periodontist to help treat your periodontal disease. Your dentist and Periodontist will work together in order to provide you with the best treatment for your particular situation.

Once your teeth and gums are healthy again, your dentist will recommend cosmetic dental solutions to repair that chipped tooth or fill the gap between your front teeth. Your dentist may also recommend Dental Implants if you have a missing tooth.

If you are dealing with stained teeth, your dentist may advise Dental Veneers or Tooth Whitening. If you have had previous dental restorations, Dental Veneers may be the better choice as Tooth Whitening will not alter the color of tooth colored fillings, Dental Bonding or Inlays and Onlays. Dental Whitening can correct mottled tooth staining, brown or yellow teeth. Dental Whitening works on young and old people alike, and can brighten your dull smile restoring it back to its original brightness.
