As another school year comes to an end, it’s almost time for your student to walk across the stage to receive their diploma or degree. They’ve worked hard to accomplish their goal. Reward their effort and commitment by giving the gift of a stunning smile. A person with attractive teeth is viewed as intelligent, successful, and confident, which are important qualities to have in any career. You can ensure your graduate looks and feels their best as they take the next step toward their future with cosmetic dentistry. Here are a few great options for graduating students.
Porcelain Veneers
A veneer is a thin shell bonded to the front surface of a tooth to enhance its color, size, and shape. Bonding veneers to the teeth visible when smiling corrects many issues using one minimally invasive procedure, like stains, chips, cracks, and gaps. In as few as 2 appointments, your student can undergo a smile makeover and enjoy results that can last for a decade or longer.
Metal-Free Dental Restorations
Metal fillings and crowns are durable and affordable, but they can stick out like a sore thumb. Metal-free dental restorations are made of biocompatible materials that look natural. Cavities can be treated using a composite resin that doesn’t contain any metals, including mercury. It is shaded to match the color of the enamel to blend in with the tooth. Ceramics can be used to make crowns, bridges, and other restorations. Although they don’t contain any metals, they are strong and can last for many years.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding offers a quick fix for minor issues. A resin is shaded to the color of the tooth and molded into the ideal shape before being hardened using a special light to resolve a variety of flaws, like chips, cracks, or stains. Your graduate can have a stunning smile in about 30 to 90 minutes, depending on how many teeth are being treated.
Teeth Whitening
Take-home teeth whitening provides the convenience of an OTC product and an in-office system. Teeth can get up to 8 shades whiter in about 2 weeks. Your cosmetic dentist will give your graduate everything they need to revamp their pearly whites around their schedule.
Invisalign
Invisalign is a discrete method of fixing bite and alignment issues because brackets and wires aren’t needed. Clear aligners are worn over the teeth to apply continual pressure to move them slowly. They can achieve a healthy, straight smile without compromising their professional image.
Give the priceless gift of a beautiful smile to a special student. They’ll head into their future with their best foot forward.
