The Easiest Way to Transform Your Smile

If you’re reading this, you’re probably dissatisfied with how your smile looks and you’re considering ways to transform it. Fortunately, there are several cosmetic dentistry treatments that can help you achieve the smile of your dream. 

The easiest way to transform your smile is to get a smile makeover. This procedure involves one or more cosmetic dentistry procedures designed to improve the appearance of your smile. Some of the procedures included in a smile makeover includes bonding, teeth whitening, braces, veneers, dental crowns, bridges, implants, and so on. 

When you visit our dental office in London, Ontario, our multidisciplinary team of dental professionals will evaluate your situation and recommend some cosmetic dentistry treatments that can improve the overall aesthetics of your face. The following are some of the procedures you might get to transform your smile depending on your specific situation and overall budget. 

Braces

One of the biggest complaints people have about their smiles is the alignment of their teeth. Getting braces remains the most popular way to correct misaligned, crowded, or crooked teeth. It is not a quick fix as treatment can take several months. However, it still remains an effective solution even for complex orthodontic issues. 

In the past braces made of metal brackets, wires, and elastic bands used to be the norm. It was too obvious and people often become more self-conscious when they get braces. These days there are more discreet alternatives such as ceramic braces and behind-the-teeth lingual braces. 

Invisalign Braces 

More than 12 million people from various countries across the world have gotten Invisalign braces to transform their smiles. Clear aligners help solve one of the biggest problems people have with braces. They’re invisible aligners which means no one would even know you have the braces on. They are also custom-made for your teeth and you can remove them easily. 

Invisalign treatment typically consists of a series of clear plastic trays. Each tray achieves a specific range of movement for your teeth after which you move to the next aligner tray in the set

Invisalign braces work for simple to moderate teeth alignment issues. It can also correct teeth gap, overbite, and underbite issues among others. They’re removable which means you won’t need to give up certain foods or change your oral routine completely. Of course, there are still specific instructions you have to follow to get the best from your Invisalign treatment. 

Veneers

The shape, color, and size of your teeth are some of the factors that can affect the quality of your smile. Dental veneers correct the aesthetics of your teeth while still looking as natural as possible. 

The treatment involves adding a thin layer of porcelain or composite material to the surface of your teeth. The process of installing dental veneers on your teeth is usually completed in two visits. On the first visit, the orthodontist prepares your teeth and takes a mold which they will use to fabricate your veneers. On the second visit, the dentist attaches the veneers  to your teeth to correct the shape, color, and size. Veneers can also correct teeth spacing and gap issues, fix chipped or cracked teeth, and so on. 

Getting Veneers is a fantastic option for achieving smile transformations. The only drawback of this treatment approach is that it is sort of permanent. To install a veneer, the orthodontist will have to file off some part of your enamel. This is not reversible, meaning once you get veneers, you have to wear one for life. However, this is hardly ever a problem since veneers can last for as much as 10 years or more. 

Dental Bonding

Many people consider bonding a more convenient alternative to veneers because they’re generally less invasive or destructive. This treatment involves using a dental composite material to reshape and contour the teeth. The purpose of this treatment is to change the size and shape of individual teeth. You can also get direct composite bonding to fix chips and contour teeth edges non-invasively. When it comes to reshaping the teeth, bonding achieves similar results as veneers. However, it is not as durable as veneers. You’ll need to re-do the procedure within 3 to 10 years. The main advantage bonding has over veneers is that the procedure is completely reversible. 

Enamel Contouring

Another procedure that can change the appearance of your teeth and transform your smile is enamel contouring. As the name suggests, this treatment involves taking away a tiny amount of enamel to change the shape of your teeth. The procedure is simple and the results are permanent. The dentist removes tiny amounts of enamel from your teeth and there’s no damage to it at all. Enamel contouring is one of the most affordable cosmetic treatments.to achieve an instant smile transformation. You can also combine it with other treatment options such as bonding for even better results. 

Teeth Whitening

Teeth whitening is one of the most popular treatments involved in a smile makeover. Teeth discoloration can occur due to age, medications, trauma, and food straining. While there are several over-the-counter teeth whitening treatments that can help get rid of discoloration, they’re not always effective. 

The best way to whiten your teeth is to opt for professional in-office teeth whitening. An in-office treatment can brighten your smile in about an hour. The teeth whitening specialist uses special teeth whitening gel while following safe teeth whitening protocols to give your smile a dramatic makeover.

If you want a less dramatic treatment, you can also get prescribed teeth whitening solutions from your dentist that you can use on your own. This approach takes more time and might not achieve the same level of results as an in-office whitening procedure.
