With the constant media coverage of celebrities, many Carlsbad dental patients are interested in having a smile like the stars. With an experienced dentist and the right smile makeover procedures, anyone can have a smile they want to show off.
Many smile makeovers include teeth whitening. There are a variety of ways this can be done. Most Carlsbad, Encinitas, and San Marcos CA drugstores sell over-the-counter whitening strips and gels. Your Encinitas dentist can recommend an effective one, or he or she may offer in-office bleaching. This is a quick way to see whiter teeth in less than an hour.
For missing teeth, most Encinitas cosmetic dentists will recommend a dental implant. Because a dental implant is anchored into the jawbone, it looks and feels just like a natural tooth. A dental implant prevents jawbone recession and the shifting of adjacent teeth.
Veneers are especially popular in the Encinitas area. They cover the front of the teeth and are custom-made for each individual patient. These are useful for Carlsbad patients who have broken or chipped teeth, stained teeth, or gaps between teeth that they would like to hide.
Enamel shaping, bonding, and braces are other successful treatments that can be used to help your teeth look their best.
