It’s hard to know whether investing lots of hard-earned money in cosmetic dentistry in Leybourne is going to be worth it. Most people would love to have a show-stopping smile, but is spending all that money going to have great life benefits or not? How to find out? How about asking some people who have lovely smiles what that means for them?
Of course, it’s best not to ask if they have had cosmetic dentistry in Leybourne as people are surprisingly sensitive about the suggestion they have had any kind of ‘work’ done. But good dentists, such as those at One Smile Oral Care, will have lots of local patients who will be able to talk about whether their experience and how having a great smile opens doors in a most peculiar way.
Smiles Really Do Dazzle
The thing is that evolution hard-wired humans to respond to a big, fat, genuine crinkly-eyed smile and so the smile is without doubt something that people rate for its beauty, rather like eyes, which are the other feature that humans are hard-wired to look at.
Humans gauge smiles to make decisions on how warm, friendly and trustworthy people are, so not being able to use the smile because the teeth are not a pleasure to behold can be a real handicap.
Ways To Get That Smile Going
The cosmetic dentist in Leybourne has various treatments that can improve the smile.
Teeth that have been damaged can be covered over with veneers or cosmetic bonding. Veneers are pre-made, bespoke sheaths that are fixed on the front of the teeth. The durable porcelain can be colour-matched and sculpted to blend in with the other teeth, and can last for 10 years or more.
Teeth that are stained or dull can be brightened up with teeth whitening treatments. Whitening only works on natural teeth. Teeth with restorations such as crowns or veneers cannot be whitened.
Wonky teeth can be straightened with cosmetic braces and missing teeth replaced with dental implants. Gums often can also be sculpted with laser treatment.
