Fall Trends in Cosmetic Dentistry

Attractive woman smiling

Pistachio green, colorful tights, quilted clothing and full-mouth restoration. What do these things all have in common? They’re all hallmarks of this fall season. But while fashion trends come and go, some things are designed to last a lot longer. That’s where full-mouth restoration comes in to play. Full-mouth restoration is the perfect way to have a beautiful smile that outlasts all the trends and still looks great when those trends are in vogue again. Better still, fall is a great time to start your full-mouth restoration makeover! With the kids heading back to school and the holiday photo season approaching, why not get your smile back in style with these timeless smile makeover techniques?

Dental Implants and Bridges

One of the most effective ways to create a healthy, more youthful-looking appearance is to replace missing teeth with bridges and implants. These solutions can be either removable or more permanent, but all three close any unsightly gaps in the mouth and help fill out the face in the process. They can also stop further bone degeneration that may cause more lost teeth and difficulty chewing. In fact, the sooner you replace lost teeth, the better the chance solutions like dental implants will work.

Orthodontics

Whether they be traditional wire-and-bracket braces, clear aligners or neuromuscular orthodontics, taking steps to better align your bite not only creates a beautiful aesthetic, but can also align your bite and eliminate any excessive wear on your teeth from a bad bite. They can also alleviate pain from conditions like temporomandibular joint dysfunction. You may not have a perfect smile by the time the winter holidays roll around, but you’ll be well on your way!

Veneers

Porcelain veneers cover all kinds of flaws on the teeth. They can cover minor chips, lengthen the teeth, create a more streamlined even look to the teeth and even change the color of the teeth. Best of all, they are stain resistant, so you can still indulge in all those pumpkin spice lattes this fall without the worry of discoloring them. Veneers are made of thin porcelain sheets that are custom formed to fit your individual teeth, and then permanently adhered to the outward face of each tooth. The process takes just a few weeks and can get you the bright white smile you’ve always dreamed of.
