You have a trip scheduled for the end of summer and want to make the most of your time. You don’t want to think about that short or discolored tooth. You don’t want to hide your smile because of stains or wear.
It’s not too late to elevate your smile with quick options that can boost your self-confidence in no time. Consider the following:
- Dental Veneers
- Professional Teeth Whitening
- Dental Bonding
You can also take the first steps toward a full smile makeover in Kalamazoo. Your cosmetic dentist carefully plans your treatment and can have your smile looking better fast, even if we don’t complete every treatment included in your smile makeover in time for your trip. (Treatments like dental implants and ClearCorrect take longer.)
Why Summer Is the Best Time to Schedule Cosmetic Dentistry in Kalamazoo
Summer is a bright and beautiful season. We all tend to smile more when we don’t have snow in our driveways. Additionally, a professional teeth whitening in summer—following a teeth cleaning—rids our smiles of those tooth-staining drinks we indulge in through the winter. Tea and coffee are common culprits.
Also, don’t forget that summer is a time for impromptu photos, reunions, and weddings.
- Veneers: We can often complete veneers during two office visits. Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that conceal short teeth, gummy smiles, discoloration, and even mild misalignment. You’ll be left with a symmetrical and beautiful smile in no time.
- Professional Teeth Whitening: If you’re looking for fabulous results (and safe treatment), trust your teeth whitening to the dentist.
- Dental Bonding: Using composite resin, your dentist can conceal cracks, chips, discoloration, and shape issues. Typically, we can complete treatment during a single office visit.
Tips for Lasting Cosmetic Dentistry Results
- Brush and floss after every meal or at least twice daily.
- Continue to see your dentist every six months.
- Follow all aftercare instructions.
- Avoid or reduce tooth-staining foods and drinks.
- Never use your teeth or new restorations as tools.
- Use your tooth whitening trays and gel for periodic touchups.
