Because teeth are porous by nature, they are unfortunately good at collecting stains from the foods and drinks you eat throughout the day. Things like coffee, tomatoes, berries, and beets all pose some risk of staining your teeth.

Clean Up The Existing Stains

Depending on the current state of your teeth, you may have a battle ahead of you. There are many good whitening options on the market, but none will work as well as a professional whitening treatment in our office. Whitening is also not a substitute for good oral hygiene habits, so start there. 

Prevent New Stains From Forming

Having good daily cleaning habits for your teeth is essential to keep stains from forming on them. Brush twice a day, and floss regularly. Don't skip on your twice-a-year cleanings with your dentist to keep your mouth the healthiest it can be. In addition, you might consider using whitening toothpaste.

What is a gummy smile?

A gummy smile occurs when a disproportionate amount of gums to teeth shows when a patient smiles. Many people feel like they have gummy smiles, which can cause insecurity and sensitivity. 

What causes a gummy smile?

A gummy smile may relate to how teeth grow, the shape of the jaw, or the length of the upper lip to the size of the teeth. Sometimes the gums grow up onto the tooth, causing a gummy smile by crowding onto the tooth. Each of these has different root causes and solutions.

Options Available to People Looking For A Fix

Treatment options available to each individual depends on the reason for the gummy smile. Some procedures are more invasive and costly than others, and it will take a visit to the dentist to determine what might be causing your gummy smile and the best approach to give you a smile you desire.

What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry is a broad term for dental procedures, products, and treatments to improve the cosmetic appearance of your teeth. This area of dentistry concerns itself with:

•  straightness
•  whiteness
•  uniformity
• hiding pits, chips, and cracks in teeth

The Overlap between Aesthetics and Health

As you may have noticed, there is some overlap between cosmetic and other dental procedures done for the health of your mouth. For example, braces can improve the health of your mouth by straightening your teeth, but they also improve the aesthetic appearance of the teeth. 

The Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures

Cosmetic dentistry can be as simple and non-invasive as a cleaning or professional whitening. You can consider longer-term options like veneers, which will give you a smile that might otherwise be unachievable for your teeth.

Besides being one of the best ways to achieve the smile of your dreams, cosmetic dentistry can do many things. Consult with your dentist to see what options you have.
