A poor smile not only damages your smiling confidence but impacts your overall wellbeing too. A healthy smile represents a lot about how you carry yourself, and a smile that’s crooked, misaligned or damaged can really impact how you feel.

If you’re in the position to feel embarrassed by your smile and the way your teeth look, there is no need to panic! Modern dentistry has introduced many choices of cosmetic treatment that can help you restore the look and feel of your smile that you’ve always wanted.

Let’s get started right away. If you’re feeling embarrassed by your smile, here are just some of the popular choices of treatment you can go for with us at Western Sydney Smiles.

Teeth Whitening Treatment

You may not exactly be suffering from tooth misalignment or crooked teeth, but rather your tooth shade isn’t as bright as you want them to be. This could be due to the amount of dental plaque build-up or consuming food and drink that contain tannins and chemicals that causes discolouration. Well, get started by having teeth whitening treatment, where the dentist will use a special bleaching agent made out of hydrogen peroxide (typically). The bleach opens the pores in the underlying dentin to cause the small stained molecules to break away, to make way for a brand new shine in your teeth.

Dental Veneers

If your teeth suffer from natural wear and tear and are generally crooked, you can hide these niggles by having dental veneer treatment. Dental veneers are a single, wafer-thin shaped shell made out of porcelain that’s bonded to the front of your teeth. The shells are coloured and shaped to meet your natural teeth. Other materials are also available for veneer treatment.

Dental Implants

Your natural teeth set may already be shining brightly, but there is a gap in your tooth set, possibly due to an impacted wisdom tooth or a decayed tooth that need to be removed. Well, the gap can be filled with a dental implant! An implant is a titanium screw infused into the jawbone directly, with the crown (the artificial tooth) being placed on top of an abutment that connects the implant together. Implants look and feel just like your natural teeth, which is the catch to have the treatment. They’re hardly noticeable, meaning nobody can tell the difference between which is natural or artificial.

Invisalign

Invisalign clear aligners are transparent and plastic orthodontic devices that form as dental braces to adjust your teeth and straighten them accordingly. Its transparency means that when they’re worn, they’re virtually invisible, but they are equally as effective as traditional braces. To add to this, they’re aesthetically pleasing compared to traditional braces.

Dental Crowns

A dental crown acts as a cap that fits over a decayed or damaged tooth above the gum line to prevent it from causing further damage. Crowns protect a weaker tooth from breaking or cracking altogether. Crowns are also beneficial should you have deeply discoloured teeth.
