4 Cosmetic Dental Treatments to Get the Perfect Summer Smile

It’s officially summer, which means the season for socializing has finally arrived! From backyard barbecues to weddings to beach trips, there are many festivities to look forward to in the warmer months. Does your smile have you dreading the pool selfies and family photos?

Luckily, your cosmetic dentist offers several dental treatments to help you transform your grin into something you’ll proudly show off. Read on to learn about four options that can help you enjoy your vacation with a boost of confidence.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are the secret to getting that dazzling Hollywood look! Veneers are very slim, custom-made sheaths of dental-grade porcelain that are attached firmly to the front surfaces of your teeth. They can instantly whiten teeth, correct chips and cracks, conceal gaps, and create the appearance of straighter teeth. You can get anything from a few minor flaws fixed to a complete smile makeover in just a few visits.

Metal-Free Restorations

Are you self-conscious about a damaged tooth?  It may be problematic when mingling with people or when you want to take a bite out of a burger that’s fresh off the grill. Fortunately, there’s a solution that combines the best qualities from both restorative and cosmetic dentistry: metal-free restorations.

Your dentist can restore your tooth with treatments that can include composite resin fillings, dental bridges, crowns, inlays, and onlays. The materials used for restorations are aesthetically designed to blend with the natural color of your teeth, giving you healthy, beautiful, long-lasting results so you can enjoy your favorite treats all season long.

Dental Bonding

Even the smallest flaw can make a huge difference in your self-esteem. Don’t let your teeth hold you back this summer—consider dental bonding!

Your cosmetic dentist uses a composite resin that’s sculpted to fit your teeth perfectly, correcting minor chips and cracks and concealing tooth discoloration. The treatment can be completed in as little as one appointment, so you can leave the clinic that same day with a beautiful, new, natural-looking smile.   

Teeth Whitening

As we age, it’s normal for our teeth to become stained, discolored, and dull-looking. It happens so gradually, you may not even realize how white your smile used to be until you reminisce over old summer photos! Professional teeth whitening is a reliable and effective treatment that can remove even the most stubborn stains, making your grin up to eight shades brighter. Enjoy your pearly whites in no time with this fast and simple treatment!
