As the years go on, you may notice your smile take on stains and blemishes that conceal the original bright appearance of your enamel. While this can be upsetting, there are steps you can take to regain your beautiful grin. By paying attention to factors that lead to staining, you can prevent additional wear. Furthermore, talking to your dentist about cosmetic options for lifting stains can lead to desirable results. While over-the-counter whitening products can seem tempting, a professional evaluation can lead to better outcomes. We can examine your teeth and determine if a yellow appearance lives inside the enamel itself or is due to the loss of this protective material. When you lose enamel, your smile will not respond to a bleaching whitening treatment, and we must rely on alternative methods to restore your grin. With porcelain veneers, we can select the shade of a restoration that fits simply in front of your existing tooth. This means we can correct multiple smile flaws with a single solution.
At Sunny Smiles Family Dentistry, we look forward to caring for all of your dental needs. From preventive and restorative services to maintain your oral health, to cosmetic procedures that boost your appearance, we have you covered. Because your smile is the center of attention when speaking and laughing, cosmetic enhancement can do wonders for your wellbeing!
When Your Smile Begins To Fade
How do blemishes take hold on the surface of your teeth? Discoloration has many contributing causes, but you should look out for common food and drink that leave behind a mark. Coffee, tea, soda, and wine can leave streaks that remain long after you finish your drink. If you see staining after enjoying one of these beverages, select alternatives to avoid taking on discoloration.
Professional Whitening Treatment
When we determine that your discoloration is due to marks inside the enamel, we suggest a professional whitening session. This service goes above and beyond the kits offered in drugstores with the use of an accelerating light that completes treatment in under an hour. If you like, we could create a take-home kit with the same strength gel we use at appointments in the office.
Wearing Porcelain Veneers
If you have multiple imperfections in addition to discoloration, porcelain veneers can provide a smile makeover in a single solution. This restorative treatment is completed in as little as two visits. At first, we measure your smile to create your veneers and perform preparatory work. When you return, we will perform any necessary corrections before bonding them to your smile.
