\"The appearance of your teeth can affect your self-esteem and how others view you. Cosmetic dentistry can revamp your pearly whites to give you a smile to be proud of. Teeth whitening<\/a> and porcelain veneers are common solutions to correct imperfections. Depending on your concerns and goals, you may be a candidate for one or both procedures. Here’s what you need to know to choose between teeth whitening and veneers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

Priceless Benefits of an Attractive Smile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can’t put a price on the benefits of having a beautiful smile. Cosmetic dentistry can boost your self-esteem by giving you a smile you’ll want to show off. This can make you more approachable, both socially and professionally. An attractive smile is attributed to youth, confidence, and success, enhancing your professional image, which just might take your career to new levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improve Discoloration with Teeth Whitening <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re embarrassed by stains or discoloration, you may be a candidate for teeth whitening. It is recommended for patients with surface stains, like those caused by poor oral hygiene, smoking, or drinking a lot of coffee. Your cosmetic dentist will create a personalized treatment plan to get your teeth up to 8 shades whiter. Your results can last for many months or years with the right aftercare, like brushing and flossing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re interested in porcelain veneers, but your teeth are badly discolored, your cosmetic dentist may recommend teeth whitening before getting veneers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Correct Many Issues with Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If tooth discoloration isn’t your only concern, porcelain veneers may be a better option. They can correct many issues at once using a minimally invasive procedure, like stains, chips, and gaps. A veneer is a thin shell that’s bonded to the front side of a tooth, improving its color, size, and shape. Applying them to the teeth that show when you smile can resolve various imperfections in just two appointments. You’ll enjoy results that look and feel natural. Your dazzling new smile can last for a decade or longer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If tooth discoloration is your only concern, you may still be a candidate for veneers. Veneers can cover stains that won’t respond to traditional teeth whitening. They are made of porcelain, so they are stain-resistant. With the correct care, you won’t have to worry about new discoloration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your cosmetic dentist will examine your mouth and learn more about your goals to determine which procedure is right for you. They’ll create the personalized strategy you need to create a picture-perfect smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
