When going to the dentist we oftentimes think of classic dental services like dental cleanings, fillings or root canals. However, one of the fastest growing treatment areas in dentistry is cosmetic dental care. Cosmetic dentistry not only focuses on restoring your oral health but your overall wellbeing—both physically and emotionally.

With advances in modern dental technology, as well as the help of an experienced and talented dental office team, there's no time like the present to get the smile you want and deserve. At Brockport Smiles, we believe you should never feel the need to hide or hold back your smile. Here are just a few of the many benefits of cosmetic dentistry.

Boost your confidence! From chipped or missing teeth, to stained, crooked or out of place teeth, there are many reasons why someone can feel insecure about their smile. 9 out of 10 people surveyed said that people with a good smile are more attractive. Cosmetic dentistry services can improve the attractiveness of your teeth and help you feel better about your smile and yourself.

With a confident smile comes greater social and professional success: A confident smile goes a long way in social and professional interactions. In fact, a study done by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry found that an improved smile makes you appear more successful, interesting and intelligent—leaving a positive and lasting impression on the people you meet.

Improve your mouth's functionality: Eating should be a nourishing and enjoyable experience. When you have damaged or missing teeth, chewing can instead become a nuisance. With cosmetic dentistry, the look and functionality of your teeth is restored, meaning you can go back to chewing comfortably and enjoying your food.

Make it easier for you to maintain good oral health: When you have crooked, out of place or missing teeth, it can be difficult to floss and brush between crevasses. This can lead to plaque buildup, inflamed gums and an increased risk of cavities. Improving your smile with cosmetic dentistry can help prevent further decay as well as protect your mouth from infection. Restoring missing teeth with dental implants or bridges can prevent other teeth from shifting and causing further misalignments.

Inspire better dental hygiene: The best way to protect your smile is to brush and floss every day, as well as keep up on regular dental exams and cleanings. Of course, we understand that life happens and busy schedules can impede on our discipline and ability to stay on top of our oral health. When patients invest in renewing and restoring their smile, many patients experience a rejuvenated motivation to stay on top of brushing and flossing daily.

It's fast, and effective: With advances in modern dental technology, like CEREC technology, along with working with an experienced and skilled dentist, your smile results can often be achieved pain-free and in as little as a single visit! Not to mention, the results last many years, or even up to a lifetime!

An attractive smile can have an impact on your life. Whether you are looking to whiten and brighten your smile, straighten your teeth or a total smile makeover, we can help. Call today to schedule your free dental consultation to experience the benefits of a great smile. (585) 416-2191.
