Teeth don’t fix themselves, and years of use and occasional injuries can leave them with unsightly stains, gaps, cracks, or chips that can distract observers from the more beautiful aspects of a person’s smile. Thankfully, many dentists offer safe and effective cosmetic services that can whiten, reshape, or straighten troubled teeth. Here’s a quick look at how your cosmetic dentist can help you achieve a remarkable smile you’ll be proud to show off.
At Smile312, our Chicago dental team is dedicated to providing exceptional care for every smile. From routine checkups to advanced treatments, we combine expertise, compassion, and modern technology to keep your teeth healthy and your experience stress-free. Discover dentistry that puts your comfort and wellness first.
Veneers and metal-free dental crowns can address mild to severe dental defects like cracks, chips, gaps, stains, and misshapenness. These devices are designed to conceal flaws with layers of beautiful porcelain shaded to match the natural color of the rest of the patient’s smile, and they are placed through a painless procedure that typically takes two appointments scheduled several weeks apart. Veneers are typically used for the front teeth while crowns are usually placed on molars, and they can completely transform a grin into a gorgeous new state.
Years of exposure to the pigments and dyes in darker foods and beverages like coffee, tea, red wine, berries, candies, and colorful sauces can leave teeth with unsightly stains that don’t respond to conventional oral hygiene methods. While you can find whitening products at your local store, professional teeth whitening treatments from your dentist can reliably deliver superior results in brief timeframes. If you practice excellent oral hygiene, the results of your treatment may last up to three years.
Some people will need multiple cosmetic and restorative treatments to achieve their ideal grins, and a smile makeover may be the best way to give you the teeth of your dreams. After your consultation, your dentist will develop a detailed treatment plan designed to address oral infections, rebuild lost dental structure, and beautify your pearly whites. A smile makeover can include any number of treatments necessary to achieve the patient’s desired results.
Don’t let treatable dental defects make you less willing to show off your grin. Consulting with your dentist can help you find the best way to achieve a smile you can be proud of.
