Get a Summer Makeover with These Cosmetic Dental Treatments

Most people think New Year’s is the time for new beginnings and fresh starts. But when do we take an extended break to unwind and reboot? When do we plan our vacations and start gearing up for new schedules? Summer! Summer is the perfect time for rest, relaxation, and an aesthetic makeover. If you’re looking to return to fall with a completely new look, here are some cosmetic dental treatment ideas you’ll absolutely love.

Cosmetic Dental Treatments that Sparkle and Shine

Who doesn’t want to step onto the beach with a Hollywood smile? A teeth whitening treatment will scrub stains and yellowy discoloration from your teeth in as little as one hour. If you’re too busy strutting your stuff for an in-office treatment, ask your dentist for a take-home kit. Either way, you’ll have a stunning new smile that will be impossible not to notice!

Tom Cruise and Miley Cyrus weren’t born with flawless teeth, you know. What you see on the big screen are actually the thin, shell-like coverings of dental veneers. These cosmetics are adhered to the front-facing portion of your pearly whites. They can conceal multiple flaws at once while also giving weakened enamels some extra protection. For a two-in-one treatment, definitely consider dental veneers!

Cosmetic Dental Restorations that Update and Upgrade

Of course, makeovers aren’t just about polishing and concealing. If you want to touch up what you already have, ask your dentist about cosmetic dental restorations!

Thanks to advances in dental technology, porcelain crowns and tooth-colored fillings are a modern reality. Maybe your current restorations are an unsightly silver or garish gold, or maybe you need to preserve a damaged molar. In either case, you won’t have to worry about inconsistent aesthetics. Simply talk to your dentist to get a dental crown or filling that color-matches your other teeth perfectly!

Remember that Your Dentist is Your Stylist!

To transform your hair, you talk with your stylist and try to communicate what you want as clearly and precisely as possible. Your dentist might be a medical professional, but enhancing your smile is still an art form! If one of these cosmetic dental treatments sounds promising to you, don’t forget to contact and consult with them. They’ll help you craft a treatment plan that meets your expectations and gets you even more excited for summer!
