The Most Common Issues People Have With Their Teeth

If you’re like most people, you probably have something that you don’t necessarily love about your smile. Fortunately, for just about any issue you could have with your smile, your dentist probably has a cosmetic dental treatment that can help you.

If you’re interested in addressing any little problem you have, here are some of the most common cosmetic dental issues that there are, and how an experienced dentist could help you.

Yellow Teeth

There are all kinds of things that can cause your teeth to become discolored, from coffee to red wine to good old-fashioned aging. There are all kinds of home remedies that claim to be able to give you a whiter smile than you had before, but if you really want your teeth to shine, professional teeth whitening is the way to go.

Your dentist can layer a bleaching solution over your teeth, then wait for a few minutes for it to work. At the end of it, this can give you a smile up to eight shades whiter than it was before, all within a single appointment!

Chipped Teeth

If you’ve ever chipped a tooth, you know that it can completely change how you look to others. Thankfully, the opposite is also true—repairing a chipped tooth can improve how you look to everyone you meet.

Your dentist can repair a chipped tooth with a technique known as dental bonding, where a composite resin is adhered directly to the tooth. It sounds simple, but this powerful technique can repair a wide variety of problems within as little as a single appointment.

Misalignment

There are plenty of adults who are unhappy with the alignment of your teeth, but who think they’re a little too old for braces. Thankfully, there’s a cosmetic dental treatment that can give you results much faster—veneers!

Your dentist can layer these thin ceramic shells over your teeth, completely transforming the shape of your teeth in relation to each other. That’s why veneers are sometimes referred to as “instant orthodontics.”

No matter what issue you’re facing, a dentist can probably do something to help you, even if it isn’t listed here. Talk to your cosmetic dentist about any issue you’re dealing with, and they’ll come up with a  treatment plan to help you.
