Get a Youthful Smile With Crosby Family Dental

Crosby Family Dental cares about your teeth and cares how you feel about your smile. As we age, our teeth naturally turn slightly off white, foods we eat c

an discolor them, we get cavities, and accidents occur that can chip or break our teeth. No one wants to hide their smile when they meet new people when they are happy, or when they are having photos taken, but when you feel self-conscious about your smile you may find yourself doing these things. There is no need to live like that. Modern dentists have many answers for you to choose from. This week’s blog will cover some of the options that are available to you to give yourself a more youthful smile.

Tooth Reshaping

  • If you have teeth that are chipped or uneven, we can even them out so they can not distract from your otherwise great smile.
  • Small amounts of enamel are removed to even out the surface of the tooth, leaving the rest of the tooth alone.
  • This procedure can often be done painlessly and in many cases can improve the health of the tooth since overlapping that can trap foods and lead to cavities.

Teeth Whitening

  • Older teeth naturally look more yellow than younger teeth because of food stains and thinning of enamel.
  • If you have your dentist whiten your teeth, be sure to not go too white and afterward, be sure to avoid tooth-staining foods and drinks.
