With its slower pace, longer days, and more relaxed atmosphere, summertime is the perfect season to focus on yourself. No matter if you’re taking a much-deserved vacation, mastering a new hobby, or conquering a wellness goal, take advantage of this opportunity to achieve your dreams while the weather is nice!
If you’re looking to improve the look of your smile, the summer is also a great time to undergo a cosmetic dentistry procedure. With more available appointments and the perfect excuse to take some PTO from work, here are three ways to make some big changes!
Veneers
Porcelain veneers are one of the fastest and easiest ways to change the appearance of your teeth. Veneers come in a variety of shades, so you can choose the level of white you want to show the world. They can even cover minor chips or cracks and can easily disguise some misshapen teeth.
The entire process for veneers takes just two appointments: one to prepare your teeth and measure them, and one to attach your new porcelain shells. Furthermore, recovery is easy. Though you may experience some mild sensitivity after your teeth are prepared, once your veneers are installed you should be able to eat, drink and speak as usual and without any significant discomfort.
Invisalign
While Invisalign treatment can take up to two years, it is typically complete much sooner than that. Thankfully, with clear aligners, many people may not even know you’ve begun!
With Invisalign, you wear trays over your teeth that slowly move the teeth into a more desirable position, much like with traditional braces. However, with Invisalign you don’t see the aligners, and you can remove them to eat and brush your teeth. You can even expect results a lot quicker than with braces!
Teeth Whitening
If you’d like to eliminate stains and lighten your teeth several shades, professional whitening is the solution. With both in-office laser treatments and professional-grade take home kits available, you can choose the best solution for your schedule and budget.
In-office laser treatments take about one hour and can lift about 8 shades of stains in that time, while take home kits can be done in the comfort of your own home but can take a bit longer to achieve your desired results.
If you’re ready to improve your smile, boost your self-esteem, and get that summer glow-up you’ve been dreaming of, speak to your dentist about your cosmetic options today!
