5 Ways to Improve Your Smile’s Beauty This Spring

Total Dental Care of South Carolina • March 15, 2023



 

As the days get longer and the weather gets warmer, you are probably inspired to smile more often. However, if you are self-conscious about your teeth, that can be a challenge. We’re sharing ways you can improve your smile’s beauty this spring. Before you know it, you’ll be showing off your beautiful pearly whites! 

 

  • Schedule a dental checkup

 

Your smile is only as beautiful as it is healthy. If you haven’t had a checkup in a while, it’s time to schedule yours. We’ll thoroughly clean your teeth and examine your mouth for any underlying oral health issues. This will keep your smile strong all season long!

 

  • Correct alignment issues.

 

If you have crooked teeth or a misaligned bite, we have orthodontic treatments to correct these issues. We can get you the quickest results with Six Month Smiles, ideal if your needs are purely cosmetic. Or, we offer a low-key alternative to braces with ClearCorrect. You’ll get your teeth straightened in about 12 to 18 months! 

 

  • Address minor imperfections.

 

If you notice a chipped tooth, minor wear and tear, or small gaps, you may consider treatments like veneers or tooth bonding. Veneers cover up those dental flaws with thin porcelain shells that are bonded to your tooth. They can last for at least a decade or longer with proper oral care practices. Tooth bonding is a great option if you want to stay within a budget.

 

  • Whiten your teeth

 

Tired of looking at stains in the mirror? We offer professional teeth whitening treatments that can give you sparkling white teeth. Consider our in-office treatments for the quickest results, or take-home trays if you’d prefer to do it from the comforts of home. Both will give you far better results than anything you’d see in stores.

 

  • Practice good oral hygiene habits

 

Caring for your teeth at home is essential to keeping your smile healthy. Make sure you brush for at least two minutes and floss at least once daily. Sip water throughout the day to wash away bacteria and food particles and make sure you limit sugar intake. These types of habits can go a long way to making sure your teeth and gums remain healthy.

 

 

When you want to improve your smile’s beauty, it doesn’t have to be complicated. Simple maintenance and cosmetic treatments go a long way! We also can stay within your budget, too.
