Confidence is hard to find.

It seems confidence is in short supply these days. Everyone has at least one thing about themselves that they aren’t happy about. We’re constantly seeing what we perceive as the perfect person on social media. Sure, those photos and videos might be edited, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t affect how we view ourselves.

For many Americans, the primary cosmetic concern happens to be their teeth. This is no surprise when you remember that a smile is one of the first things a stranger notices when they meet you for the first time. These dental insecurities can appear for various reasons. Regardless, there are options to help banish these insecurities and gain the smile of your dreams.

Cosmetic dentistry is around to help save the day, no matter your insecurities! Sure, there are major changes possible through cosmetic dentistry, but the adjustments you make don’t have to be drastic to make a difference—even the smallest change can significantly alter your appearance. So if you are one of the millions of Americans feeling insecure about their smiles, don’t be afraid to check into cosmetic dentistry. You might be surprised to see what options there are just for you.

Teeth Whitening for a Brighter Smile

One of the most common forms of cosmetic dentistry is professional teeth whitening. Teeth can take on a yellow tinge over time for many reasons. Perhaps you smoked at a younger age, drank a little more coffee than you’d like to admit, or your enamel is thinner than it used to be.

Thankfully, teeth whitening exists to turn back the clock and create a whiter, more radiant smile. It’s such a simple process that people are often surprised at how much more confident they feel afterward. Professional teeth whitening can be done in a single visit, instantly transforming your smile by both making you look younger and restoring your confidence.

Veneers for a Flawless Look

Though the thought has likely crossed your mind at least once, we can’t live in a box of bubble wrap. Accidents happen, and sometimes they create dental problems such as chipped, uneven, or discolored teeth. If any of these problems sound familiar to your situation, veneers might do the trick. Think of these as thin covers that adhere to the front surface of your natural teeth. With proper care, these function just like regular tooth enamel, so you don’t have to worry about any changes to your lifestyle. 

We offer e.max veneers in our office. These are known for being exceptionally comfortable and don’t require us to remove much enamel, if any, before bonding them in place. This makes them faster to create, but they still retain that classic durability. You can eat and drink what you want as long as you keep up a good at-home oral hygiene routine.

Gum Contouring for a Balanced Smile

Have you ever felt like your smile is 90% gums with just a hint of tooth peeking over the top? It’s actually a common patient concern and one that we have a solution for! Gum contouring is available for those with a little too much gum and not enough teeth showing in their smiles. For this process, the dentist shapes the gumline to create a more proportional look. Your pearly whites don’t need to hide! You’ll only need one appointment and will leave with a less “gummy” smile.

Smile Makeovers: Customized for You

What if you need multiple different treatments to land your dream smile? That’s where smile makeovers come in. These are hand-selected treatments tailored to your specific needs. A smile makeover treatment plan can include anything from gum contouring to veneers to cosmetic crowns. Whatever outcome you’re trying to achieve, remember that it doesn’t have to be extreme! Even simple changes make a difference, so don’t underestimate how personalized adjustments can transform your overall look.

There are options for everyone.

You might be surprised to learn what options fall into the category of cosmetic dentistry. If there is anything about your smile that you dislike, we can promise that there is an option out there for you.
So if you have found yourself looking in the mirror with a frown, be sure to reach out for a consultation. You deserve to love your smile!
