5 Simple Ways to Improve your Smile

**No 5 is so obvious!

Teeth Whitening Many people automatically think whiter teeth, when they think brighter smile, and the process of teeth whitening can be fairly simple. While there are a variety of teeth-whitening products you can try, your main options are in-office or at-home bleaching. Your dentist will be in the best position to tell you what, if any, whitening procedures will work best for you.

Crown A crown is a good way to cover teeth that are discolored or badly shaped. A crown can make your tooth stronger and improve its appearance. Crowns can also be used to attach bridges, protect a weak tooth from breaking or restore one that’s already broken.

Implants Dental implants are a popular and effective way to replace missing teeth. Surgically placed in the upper or lower jaw, they function as a sturdy anchor for replacement teeth. Implants are made of titanium and other materials, and are designed to hold restorations like crowns or bridges blend in with your other teeth. They are a great long-term option for restoring your smile. 

Braces

While orthodontic work that begins while a child is growing helps produce optimal results, that doesn’t mean that adults can’t have braces. Thanks to advances in orthodontic treatments, metal brackets are not your only option. Removable aligners, or “invisible braces,” or clear plastic brackets can all be used to straighten crooked or crowded teeth. Brushing & Flossing It may seem obvious, but brushing and flossing are the most important tools for keeping a healthy mouth. Brush twice and floss at least once a day to prevent cavities, and improve your oral health.

Regular dental checkups still remains one of the easiest way to improve your smile. Aside from checking for cavities and oral diseases, and doing routine cleaning, your dentist can also provide other options for making your smile even brighter.
