Like many other celebrities, actress Megan Fox achieved her glowing, flawless smile through cosmetic dentistry. Specifically, she received a set of dental veneers to conceal some minor crookedness and yellowing. Obviously, her treatment results look great, but surely dental work like that is only accessible for the rich and famous, right?
You might be happy to learn that this isn’t the case! Keep reading to find out how cosmetic dentistry could be a good fit for you and your smile.
Universal Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
It makes perfect sense for Megan Fox to beautify her teeth – after all, she has a very public-facing job. But not every patient realizes that the same benefits that help movie stars elevate their careers could also apply to them!
Research shows that a dazzling smile makes a huge contribution to a good first-impression, giving you an edge in job interviews, advancement opportunities, and even romance. Basically, you don’t have to be a TV host to find value in having brilliant teeth.
How Progress Shortened the Financial Gap
It’s true that many cosmetic dental treatments cost a pretty penny in the past. When veneers first came on the scene, for example, they only lasted for 24 hours, and were costly to produce.
Since then, however, dentistry has seen plenty of advancements in fabrication methods and treatment techniques. Returning to the veneer example, once dentists figured out how to get them to stick, they became much more cost-efficient for general audiences. Affording a smile enhancement might not be as difficult as you think!
Stunning Treatment Options
Let’s give your imagination some more details to run wild with. Think about your current smile. Here are just a few of the ways cosmetic dentistry could transform your pearly whites:
- Porcelain veneers. Hollywood stars love these thin, tooth-like shells. Veneers are meant to be adhered to the front-facing portion of your teeth, so that your dental flaws will be concealed behind beautiful porcelain.
- Teeth whitening. Maybe your dental pearls aren’t as white as you’d like. Professional teeth whitening is much more effective at brightening your smile than store-bought products.
- Dental bonding. Want to get ready for a big event you have coming up? Dental bonding can hide minor flaws with a tooth-colored resin in as little time as one hour.
- Gum recontouring. Overextended gums can give your smile a pink, “gummy” appearance. This isn’t your teeth’s fault, though! Recontouring your gumline will give your pearly whites more room to shine.
Like what your mind’s eye is seeing? Then get in touch with your dentist to schedule a consultation. They’ll help you choose the cosmetic dental treatment that best fits your vision so you can feel like a star regardless of your follower count.
