The holiday season is that priceless time of the year where\nfamily and friends eek out room in their schedules to gather together to\ncelebrate. Along with the different events that can take place, it\u2019s customary to\ntake a ton of photos. For people living with smile flaws<\/a>,\nthis can create a sense of anxiety. If this sounds familiar to you, then now is\nthe perfect time to do something about it. As you read on, get a glimpse of how\nyour cosmetic dentist in Virginia Beach can enhance your smile and boost your\nconfidence this holiday season!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Purpose of Cosmetic Dentistry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Modern dentistry offers more than just a means to ensure\nhealthy teeth and gums, and to maintain oral functionality. It also provides a\nway to overcome smile imperfections. To address the latter, there is cosmetic\ndentistry. Although the treatments that fall into this category are considered\nnon-essential by dental insurance companies, to the patients who benefit from\nthem, they make a hugely positive impact in their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you visit your cosmetic dentist, you can determine\nwhich method is best suited to fulfill your desires. Meanwhile, let\u2019s take a\nlook at a few of the typical services offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porcelain Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether you have slight cracks, chips or permanent teeth\nstains, porcelain veneers provide a cosmetic solution. The thin shells are\ncustom-designed by your cosmetic dentist, and then a smile plan is sent to an\nin-network lab that will fabricate the fixtures. When they return to your\ncosmetic dentist, you\u2019ll be invited back to have them permanently bonded. The\nresult will be a beautiful and functional set of teeth that look like you\u2019ve\nalways had them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the process usually takes two to three visits to\ncomplete, if you want to have your new smile in time for the holidays, you\u2019ll\nneed to take action soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Metal-Free Dental Restorations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With the emergence of metal-free restorations, the days of\nmetallic-based procedures is a thing of the past. With the use of high-quality\nporcelain, you can have a new crown or bridge that is just as durable as it is\nappealing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dental Bonding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another way to address minor chips, cracks, gaps or stains\nis to receive dental bonding. The process utilizes tooth-colored composite\nresin to repair damaged or missing enamel. Your cosmetic dentist will apply the\nmaterial directly to your teeth and sculp it to blend perfectly into your smile\nline. As an added perk, the process can usually be completed in a single visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ZOOM! Teeth Whitening<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Over time, consuming products like sodas, coffee, tea and\nwine can take a toll on your teeth. Thankfully, with ZOOM! teeth whitening, the\nstubborn stains can be lifted and your smile brightened by as much as 10\nshades. With your new appearance, you\u2019ll be saying, \u201cBring on the cameras!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no time like the present to take action to improve\nyour smile. To see the results you\u2019ve been looking for, contact your dentist in\nVirginia Beach to schedule a visit today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
