7 Ways Cosmetic Dentistry Can Change Your Life

If you aren’t happy with your smile or you simply don’t like how your teeth look, you aren’t alone. Thankfully, there is something that you can do about it, and it comes in the form of cosmetic dentistry. When most people think of dentistry, they think of white coats, dental check-ups and unpleasant procedures. However, this certainly isn’t the case when it comes to cosmetic dentistry. This form of dentistry with an aesthetic focus has the ability to not just whiten or straighten your teeth but transform your smile and change your life. Let our cosmetic dentists at Smile Stories show you just how we can make it happen for you. 

Cosmetic dentistry is growing in popularity, with the global market for cosmetic dentistry predicted to grow 5% annually, increasing its value to an estimated £21 billion by the year 2026. This is because people are realising how the different treatments can give them the smile they have always wanted without breaking the bank. From Invisalign and teeth whitening to dental implants and composite bonding, cosmetic dentistry can change your life and give you the lifetime smile confidence you never thought was possible.

1. Look Younger and Healthier

Yellow or stained gnashers, missing teeth and silver fillings are unsightly and often associated with ageing. Instantly boost your appearance and look years younger with a simple teeth whitening treatment. This cosmetic treatment is hugely popular thanks to its easy and non-invasive nature. 

Although you can try a DIY teeth whitening kit, there is no doubt that professional teeth whitening is where it’s at. This effective and safe form of teeth whitening removes all dirt and staining and leaves you ready to show off those pearly whites. 

Teeth and oral health is also often associated with overall health. Therefore, by transforming your smile, you will not only appear younger but also healthier. Enjoy your new youthful look and have confidence in your smile.

2. Easier to Look After Your Teeth

Okay, so cosmetic dentistry is usually all about looking and feeling better, but that isn’t where the benefits stop. When you have gaps or chips in your teeth, they can create the perfect home for pieces of food and other particles that can’t be removed by brushing and flossing. These stuck particles of food can not only cause bad breath but also decay to the surrounding area. 

However, thanks to cosmetic dentistry and treatments like Invisalign, dental implants and composite bonding, you can eliminate those cracks and fill the gaps meaning you can concentrate on good dental hygiene and prevent those small dental issues from becoming big problems.

3. Feel More Confident

We all have insecurities that hold us back in life, but your smile shouldn’t be one of them. A lack of self-confidence and low self-esteem can have serious consequences on so many aspects of your life, from your work to your love life. If you are constantly embarrassed to smile for photos or post a holiday snap, you aren’t alone. In fact, there is an unsurprising link between poor dental oral health and low self-esteem. This is where cosmetic dentistry comes in; these effective treatments can give you the smile you have always wanted and leave you with newfound smile confidence. 

4. Smile More

Smiling is good for you and actually has a bigger impact on your life than you probably realised. Plenty of studies show that people who smile more often are generally more successful. Smiling has a big impact on how we are seen by others and how we connect with those around us, therefore, it is important to feel confident when showing off that grin.

Cosmetic dentistry can help you feel confident about your smile and ready to rock any selfie. Undergo a smile transformation and check out the smile stories of previous clients we have been able to help.

5. Enjoy All Your Favourite Foods

Enjoying your favourite foods and snacks is one of the small pleasures in life. Unfortunately, it can sometimes be difficult to enjoy your favourite foods when your teeth make it painful to chew. Thankfully, a lot of cosmetic procedures can also help restore the function of your teeth. 

If you have a painful empty socket, we can fix your problem with dental implants. Likewise, if you have an uncomfortable broken tooth, we can work our magic with composite bonding. Cosmetic dentistry may be designed to give you the smile you want, but it can also help fix a range of dental problems and increase your comfort. 

6. Eliminate Pain

If your teeth aren’t properly aligned, they rub against the side of your mouth or press against other teeth and cause you pain or even headaches. However, by using cosmetic teeth straightening and aligning techniques, you can eliminate this pain. Revolutionary teeth straightening techniques like Invisalign can not only transform your smile but change your life.

7. Don’t Break the Bank

When it comes to cosmetic procedures, many people still believe they are only for the rich and the famous. However, this just isn’t the case when it comes to cosmetic dentistry.
