3 Ways Our Dentists Can Help Improve Your Smile

A beautiful smile is not just about having perfectly aligned, white teeth. It’s about the way a smile can make you (and the people around you) feel—connected, happy, hopeful, and optimistic.

On the flipside, if you don’t have the confidence to smile, you may avoid smiling altogether. This can have a negative impact on social interactions, personal relationships, and professional opportunities.

Fortunately, there are many ways enhance the appearance of your smile. And some of them are surprisingly simple.

Here are the three most common cosmetic dental treatments for a beautiful smile:

1.Teeth Whitening

If you’re looking for a safe and effective way to whiten your teeth, you’re not alone. Tooth discoloration is the number one cosmetic concern among our patients.

While at-home whitening kits are readily available online or at supermarkets, having your teeth professionally whitened at the dentist is the best way to ensure that the results are effective and long-lasting. Plus, receiving personalised treatment and advice from a dental professional can help you achieve your desired results without any unnecessary discomfort or side effects. Our dentists will always screen for decay first to ensure that the treatment doesn’t damage the teeth in any way.

At Comfort Dental Gympie, we use high-quality peroxide gels to deliver safe and effective teeth whitening. Depending on your preferences, teeth whitening can be completed in one dental visit, through a series of appointments, or at home using a custom tray specifically designed to fit your teeth. Custom trays ensure than the peroxide gel covers every angle of the tooth and stays where it belongs, on the enamel and not on the gums.

2. Dental Veneers

Veneers are a popular choice for patients who want to improve the appearance of their teeth quickly and effectively. They can be used to correct a range of dental imperfections such as chips, gaps, discolouration, and misshapen teeth.

There are two different materials that dental veneers can be constructed from—porcelain or composite resin—and each material has a different set of advantages. Our dentists will always discuss which type of veneers are most suitable for your needs and budget. The good news is that no matter which way you go, you can save up to 50% on veneers at Comfort Dental Gympie.

3. Scale & Clean

A professional scale and clean gently and effectively removes plaque, tartar and staining that cannot be removed by regular brushing. Having regular scale and cleans will also reduce your risk of tooth decay and gum disease, both of which can negatively affect your smile’s appearance.  We recommend a professional scale and clean twice a year to keep your teeth and gums in tip-top shape.

There are many ways to achieve a confident smile. Teeth whitening, dental veneers, and regular scale and cleans are just a few of the available options. A consult with your dentist is the best way to determine which treatment is suitable for your needs. Book online to start the process.
