A Beautiful Smile Leads to More Confidence

Studies show that a person’s smile is one of the very first things others notice about them. A straighter, more beautiful smile can boost a person’s confidence immensely, and others will perceive them as more confident. Invisalign, The New York Times, and countless others have conducted studies about the benefits that come with a beautiful smile:

  • 1/3rd of people notice a person’s smile first when meeting for the first time.
  • People who have straighter teeth are 45% more likely to be hired for a job than someone with a crooked smile.
  • Those with better, more beautifuls miles are 58% more likely to be perceived as wealthy and successful. They are also more likely to get a date over someone who doesn’t have a good smile.
  • A better smile leads to more confidence and happiness, as studies in both adults and children show.
  • People with a straighter, more beautiful smile are seen as healthier by others as well as smarter.

A smile isn’t everything when it comes to a person’s personality or who they are, but a better smile can make a major difference in how a person feels and appears to others. You may think that getting braces is the only way to have a straighter or better smile. Even though orthodontics is a great way to go about this, orthodontic treatment generally takes 18-24 months. You can get a better smile in less time through cosmetic dentistry.

Spruce Up Your Smile through Cosmetic Dentistry

There are various types of dentistry. General and family dentistry focus on services catered to every person in the family, both old and young. Restorative dentistry seeks to remove dental decay and gum problems, and restore a smile once more. Cosmetic dentistry seeks to improve a person’s smile through services that make their smile more beautiful. Often, these services don’t take 18-24 months like orthodontic treatment can. Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving dental aesthetics of your teeth like their color, position, shape, size and alignment for your overall smile appearance.

 

There are various services we offer in cosmetic dentistry that include:

  • Porcelain Veneers
  • Teeth Whitening
  • Dental Implants
  • Implant-Supported Dentures
  • Teeth Straightening

All of these services are meant to give you a smile that reflects the confidence and beauty you feel inside.

 

Porcelain Veneers

Instead of adult orthodontics, consider porcelain veneers. This may be an easier option if your teeth aren’t very crooked. We simply remove a very small layer of the front of your teeth after taking impressions of your teeth. We custom-make tooth shells for each individual tooth in our lab, that will then be bonded to your teeth at your second dental appointment. Once bonded to your teeth, you will have a new, durable smile that is beautiful. Many celebrities invest in porcelain veneers to get a winning smile.

Teeth Whitening

This is one of the easiest ways to improve your appearance. Over time, your teeth become dull due to foods and drinks you consume, if you use tobacco and also wear and tear. You may have whitened your teeth in the past, only to notice that they aren’t white anymore. On average, a person needs to whiten their teeth about every 7 years. That’s not very often though, if you consider how much food and drink comes in contact with your teeth each day. At our office, we offer a 45-minute in-office treatment to whiten your teeth. Or, we can provide you with custom-made whitening trays that you can use in the comfort of your own home. The in-office treatment gives you a smile 5-10 shades brighter in less than an hour, making your smile timeless.

 

Implants

Tooth decay is very chronic in many patients. This decay can lead to tooth loss, which nobody wants. That is why we provide the option of a custom-made dental implant. We install a metal implant in your jaw topped off with a custom-made dental crown that blends in with your natural teeth. This implant stays good for up to 20 years and is very hard and durable. We also have implant-supported dentures, which is similar, but secures dentures in place so you are not always having to remove them. Implants are a great way to restore a smile that has teeth missing.

 

Cosmetic Dentistry for You

We also provide teeth-straightening services in our office in the form of Invisalign treatment. This is a series of custom-made transparent aligners that can straighten your teeth over time much like braces can. However, you will have to come into our office for a consultation to see if Invisalign or one of our other cosmetic dentistry options are right for you. At Stonebrook Family Dental, we give you the appearance of a healthy, beautiful smile, while ensuring that your mouth is as healthy as it looks. If you want a better smile today through cosmetic dentistry, call our office today at (303) 872-7907. Get a smile today that is sure to boost your confidence and your appearance!
