After months of gray horizons and frozen ground, Mother Nature goes into Extreme Makeover mode in spring. Green leaves and blooms appear. The sun shows itself more often. Inspired by the warmer weather, you may make changes to your own appearance. Whether it’s losing a few pounds or getting a manicure, spring seems like a great time to freshen your look.
What about your smile? It’s one of the most visible things about you. It helps you make a great first impression, one that sticks with people. At Attleboro Family Dental Care, we think spring is a great time to improve your smile. We’re happy to help you do it, with a cosmetic dental procedure. We offer treatments ranging from simple teeth whitening to Invisalign orthodontic treatment.
If you want to address multiple smile issues, one of our Attleboro, MA dentists can create a comprehensive makeover plan for you, helping you choose cosmetic and/or restorative treatments that give you the most bang for your buck. They can even create a wax model to give you an idea of how your new smile will look.
You don’t have to get an elaborate makeover, of course. Sometimes a single smile fix can make a big difference! So how do you get started? Call 508-222-2510 to schedule a cosmetic dentistry consultation.
Dental Veneers Are a Versatile Smile Solution
There’s not much we can’t do with dental veneers. They are sometimes called “instant orthodontics” because they cover small gaps or crooked teeth. They also hide stains, chips, cracks, and other wear and tear. We can even lengthen the look of worn-down teeth with veneers.
You can choose from two different kinds of veneers. Our dentists will remove a tiny amount of enamel to attach one type of veneer to the front surfaces of your teeth. The other veneer requires no removal of enamel at all!
Get a Straight Smile With Orthodontics
Depending on the orthodontic issue you need to address, we may recommend traditional metal braces or Invisalign. Because Invisalign uses transparent plastic aligners to straighten teeth, it’s especially popular among adults. The removable aligners not only create a discreet appearance, they make it easy to care for your teeth too. You can simply take them out for meals, then brush your teeth before putting them back in.
Most people also find them more comfortable than braces. And the average treatment time for adults is 12 months, which is months shorter than with braces.
Unlike many general dentists, we have an orthodontist on staff. So you’ll never need a referral for orthodontic treatment!
Brighten Your Smile With Teeth Whitening
Whitening is a quick and easy way to give your smile a boost. You’ll get instantly bright results with a treatment in our Attleboro, MA dentist’s office. Or we can provide you with professional-strength whitening gel and custom-made trays for you to use in the privacy of your home. It takes about two weeks of home whitening to see the maximum improvement.
Tooth Bonding Is a Quick Cosmetic Fix
Bonding is a good cosmetic dental procedure for covering small smile flaws because it usually only takes a single appointment. One of our dentists will apply tooth-colored resin directly to your teeth, then carefully shape it to hide rough edges, small chips, gaps, or other imperfections. Though it can address some of the same flaws as veneers, bonding doesn’t last as long. The resin also isn’t as resistant to stains as veneers.
Get Your Grin in Shape With Gum & Teeth Contouring
Using a high-tech laser, our dentists can painlessly reshape your teeth and/or gums to give them a more pleasing appearance. Fast and affordable, contouring works best for minor imperfections such as:
- Teeth with uneven edges
- Slightly overlapping teeth
- Excess tissue that gives your smile a “gummy” look
- Uneven gum line
Try Out a Transformation With Snap-On Smile
A Snap-On Smile is a custom-made removable prosthetic that fits snugly over your teeth and hides most cosmetic flaws, including missing teeth. It’s affordable enough that some patients use it to see what their smiles would look like with cosmetic treatments before investing the time and money in additional procedures. It can also be worn to conceal gaps in your smile while waiting for dental implants to heal or for partial dentures to be made. The prosthetic isn’t designed to be a permanent solution; it won’t last as long as other dental restorations.
