Smiling for senior pictures can be nerve-wracking for teenagers, but good oral health will benefit everyone. With summer graduation ceremonies coming up, many high school seniors might be making preparations to take pictures. If you want to improve your smile before taking pictures, you should visit your dentist. There are various cosmetic dentistry procedures that can help you achieve a beautiful smile that you can flaunt in your high school pictures.
Invisalign
Your smile is an important aspect of your high school senior pictures. You want to look your best, and a beautiful smile can help. If you have teeth that are crooked, misaligned, or gapped, it can affect your confidence and prevent you from having the smile of your dreams. The perfect solution for your problem is Invisalign.
Invisalign is a set of clear aligners that are used to straighten teeth gradually. These aligners are made of a smooth plastic material that is made to fit tightly over the teeth. The patient wears each aligner for about two weeks; then, they switch to the next aligner. Each aligner works a little bit differently, so the end result is a series of aligners that straightens the teeth little by little.
Dental Crowns
Naturally, teeth wear down over time. But your dental health can affect your smile even when you’re in your senior years. If your teeth have taken a beating from things like cavities and dental trauma over the years, our dental team can help restore your teeth. One of the best options we offer is dental crowns.
A dental crown is a restoration that is placed over a tooth that is damaged or misshapen. Dental crowns are also known as caps because they cover the entire visible part of a tooth. A dental crown is made of porcelain and has a natural appearance.
Dental Veneers
If your teeth have gaps or are discolored, your dentist will be able to help you improve your smile with dental veneers. Dental veneers are thin, tooth-colored shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth. As a result, they can improve the appearance of your teeth, covering up flaws such as discoloration, chips, and gaps.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a cosmetic procedure that can improve the appearance of your smile. This procedure uses a tooth-colored resin material to repair minor dental problems. The resin material is actually soft and flexible when applied. It can be used to fill small chips or gaps in teeth, change the appearance of a tooth, or protect a tooth from further damage.
