The condition of your teeth can directly affect your appearance and can therefore be a major influence on your self-esteem. Crooked, stained, crowded, or gapped teeth can have a negative impact on your smile, and having missing teeth can even change the shape of your face, making you appear older due to loss of bone structure and support. What is the first thing you notice about other people when you first meet them? Their smile. When you have dental imperfections, it can be difficult to be confident in yourself, and distressing when you find yourself in social situations.
Cosmetic dentistry can help to improve the appearance of your teeth and give your self-esteem a much-needed boost. A dentist who specializes in cosmetic dentistry can provide you with veneers, bonding, and enamel shaping to modify the appearance of worn down, uneven, cracked, chipped, or misshapen teeth. They can also whiten your teeth and get rid of stains from poor oral hygiene, tobacco products, coffee, and certain medications. Some dentists that specialize in cosmetic dentistry have other specializations as well, such as restorative dentistry, and certain orthodontic services, like the fitting and provision of Invisalign removable aligners.
Invisalign aligners are a clear and discrete alternative to the metal brackets and rubber bands that we’ve come to associate with teeth straightening. Invisalign aligners are also less imposing on your life than braces by allowing you to continue with your current diet, and not affecting your oral hygiene routine. They’re made of smooth plastic and can be easily removed when you want to eat, sleep, or brush and floss your teeth. Invisalign in Trumbull CT is perfect for those who are embarrassed of their smile due to crooked, crowded, or uneven teeth.
