Improve Your Smile This Spring with Cosmetic Dentistry

After such a long dreary winter, one of the best things you can do for your well-being is enhance the appearance of your smile. Our Grand Rapids, MI, cosmetic dentists understand that your smile says a lot about your personality, which is why we offer cosmetic dentistry services to help you feel more confident.

Whether you’re interested in professional teeth whitening or porcelain veneers, you can trust our team to plan and carry out your smile makeover this spring.

It’s been our experience that people are more interested in improving their appearance just before summer, whether through gym memberships or cosmetic dentistry.

Here’s how you can enjoy a beautiful, healthy smile in time for summer.

5 Ways to Change Up Your Smile Include:

• Invisalign®
• Cosmetic Bonding
• Cosmetic Contouring
• Porcelain Veneers
• Teeth Whitening

1. Invisalign

Straighten teeth in as little as 12 to 18 months with Invisalign aligners! Like the name suggests, Invisalign are nearly invisible plastic trays that fit over your top and bottom teeth. If you think you would feel self-conscious with traditional metal braces, ask our Invisalign dentists if you’re a candidate for clear aligners. Invisalign is perfect for teenagers and adults who want to straighten teeth.

2. Cosmetic Bonding

Have minor chips, cracks, or gaps in your front-facing teeth that you’d like fixed? Our dentists can recommend the cosmetic bonding procedure. Overall, this cost-effective solution is quicker and less intensive compared to veneers. To restore the appearance of teeth, we’ll apply tooth-colored composite resin before shaping, hardening, and polishing the material.

3. Cosmetic Contouring

The process of cosmetic contouring is similar to bonding but deals more with changing the shape or size of teeth. Small cracks and chips can still be corrected but so can sharp curves or undesirable angles. If you feel self-conscious about pointy canine teeth or have damage caused by excessive grinding, our dentists may suggest this option.

4. Porcelain Veneers

Veneers are wafer-thin porcelain shells we bond to the fronts of teeth to cover stains, chips, cracks, and other minor imperfections. You may be a candidate for porcelain veneers if your front teeth have minor cosmetic damage that could be easily covered. The veneers procedure takes two visits to our office, but still gives you plenty of time to transform your smile so you can show it off this summer.

5. Teeth Whitening

We offer custom teeth whitening trays so you can whiten teeth from the comfort of your own home. During your first appointment with us, we’ll take impressions of your teeth and send them to the lab where your custom whitening trays will be made. When you return for your second appointment, your custom teeth whitening trays will be ready. Our dentists will make sure your trays fit comfortably before sending you home.

We also offer in-office teeth whitening for fast results. Since so many weddings and other special occasions take place during the summer, it makes sense to whiten teeth now so you’re photo ready and radiant this spring.
