Often the first thing people notice about you is your smile. It is a key component of your look, who you are, and your confidence. For this reason, cosmetic dentistry has become a popular investment in oneself and not just another expense. But what does it mean, exactly, to have this view on cosmetic dentistry? Let’s examine cosmetic dentistry in greater detail and see why it can be considered another way to invest in yourself.
Prevents Future Damage: Cosmetic dentistry is like applying a shield to your teeth to prevent further damage from occurring. It is not only about giving you a beautiful smile. It is like repairing a road that is covered in potholes! For example, porcelain veneers cover your teeth, keeping them safe from anything that could potentially damage them. Therefore, investing in cosmetic dentistry not only results in a gorgeous smile but also preserves your teeth from future damage.
Improved Confidence: Investing in cosmetic dentistry is investing in yourself and the confidence it gives you. Research has found that regardless of the procedure approximately 30% of individuals felt that having beautiful teeth would help them get over self-consciousness about their looks, and 46% believe that having a beautiful smile would enhance their appearance. It is not just about looking good, but about feeling comfortable and amazing in your own skin.
Long -Lasting Results: With cosmetic dentistry your vibrant and beautiful smile is in it for the long haul, there is no worry of it going away anytime soon. Unlike temporary solutions, veneers and CEREC® same-day dental crowns can last as long as a decade! Spare yourself the time and hassle of frequent touch-ups and replacements and invest in a smile that lasts. It is a one-time upgrade you will never regret.
Improved Dental Function: Keeping your mouth healthy and functional is another benefit of cosmetic dentistry. For example, dental implants preserve your jawbone, which is essential for long-term oral health, in addition to filling in gaps in your smile. Preserving your jawbone is essential for maintaining proper alignment of teeth, facial structure/contour, and preventing issues like TMJ from occurring. Also, crowns and veneers not only hide problem areas but also strengthen weak teeth to allow you to chew without discomfort. So, when investing in cosmetic dentistry, you are not only getting a brighter smile, but a healthier one too.
