Are You a Candidate for a Smile Makeover?
Have you ever felt self-conscious about your smile? Do you often find yourself covering your mouth when you laugh or smiling with your lips closed? If so, it’s time to schedule a consultation with one of our cosmetic dentists in Plymouth, MI. During your appointment, they’ll be able to determine if you’re a candidate for a smile makeover.
Here’s what you need to know about the benefits of a smile makeover and what treatment options we offer at Plymouth Dentistry.
Benefits of Smile Makeovers
There are many reasons why someone might choose to pursue our smile makeover services.
The main benefits of a smile makeover include:
- Achieve a beautiful healthy smile
- Smile with confidence
- Correct multiple issues in a short period of time
- Improve oral health
The first step of your smile makeover is to schedule a consultation with one of our Plymouth cosmetic dentists. From there, you’ll be able to determine the best treatment options for achieving a healthier, more attractive smile.
Porcelain Veneers
A veneer is a wafer-thin porcelain shell bonded to the front of a tooth to repair chips or cracks. Porcelain veneers can also be used to correct uneven teeth, tooth discoloration, or close small gaps between teeth. When applied to an entire row of teeth, the finished result is a perfectly straight, white smile.
Veneers require three trips to a cosmetic dentistry, which include an initial consultation with one of our dentists, tooth preparation, and bonding the dental veneers to your teeth. Our dentists will let you know if porcelain veneers are the right treatment for you.
Dental Bridges
As the name suggests, a dental bridge is used to “bridge” the gap left by a missing tooth. A dental bridge is a prosthetic tooth anchored in place by dental crowns covering adjacent teeth. A dental bridge gives you the appearance and function of a natural tooth so you can smile with confidence.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns repair broken or decayed teeth by covering the entire tooth visible from the gum line. Not only are dental crowns durable, but they also look and function like real teeth. For significant tooth damage, our dentists may recommend the dental crown procedure.
Teeth Whitening
Wish you had a whiter, brighter smile? Our cosmetic dentists offer both in-office Zoom teeth whitening and custom whitening trays you can use from the comfort of your own home. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional teeth whitening is more powerful, safe, and effective. This means that you’ll be able to achieve your dream smile in no time!
Dental Implants
Dental implants are perfect for patients with missing teeth. To be a candidate for dental implant treatment, you’ll need healthy gums and sufficient bone density in the jaw. This is because the dental implant will need enough support to later act as the foundation for an abutment and crown.
After the implant has fused to your jawbone (a process called osseointegration), we’ll place an abutment and crown over top for a tooth that looks and feels natural.
Full or Partial Dentures
If you are missing one tooth or several teeth, you’ll want to ask our dentists about getting full or partial dentures. While living with dentures takes some getting used to, our patients notice being able to eat and speak normally after a few days.
While dentures are essentially removable teeth, they are designed to help you achieve a better quality of life than you would have had with missing teeth.
