The importance of looking good

Your smile is often the first thing people notice about you and first impressions are usually long-lasting and influential so having a smile to be proud of is important. Today, perhaps more than ever, attention is focused on beauty and appearance, with the enormous growth of the beauty industry and the boom in celebrity and popular culture. Most of us don’t have a perfect smile but now we live in a world where we can have almost everything we want and a smile makeover can give you the smile you’ve always dreamed of.

In the UK, like in many other countries across the world, we are spending an increasing amount of time and money on our appearance and the majority of people would admit to being concerned about the way they look. For many, their smile is one of their most important features and having an imperfect smile is consequently not an option. Cosmetic dental treatments can be pricey but fees are becoming increasingly competitive and an increasingly large proportion of people are willing to sacrifice their hard-earned cash in the name of looking and feeling great.

What is a smile makeover?

A smile makeover is the ultimate cosmetic dental treatment; you can choose from a whole host of different cosmetic treatments to give you the look you’ve always wanted. Choose from popular treatments including teeth whitening, veneers, orthodontic treatments, cosmetic bonding and gum contouring.

Choosing the perfect treatments

When faced with such an extensive menu of treatments, it’s not surprising that many people feel a little daunted and confused; however, this is when your dentist will come in handy, as they will be able to explain what the different treatments entail, assess your individual requirements and discuss what kind of look you want to achieve. You may prefer to go for a more natural look or you may want to go all-out and treat yourself to a glamorous Hollywood-style smile.

Most people opt for a combination of popular treatments; if you have orthodontic problems, you may wish to go for cosmetic braces and then treatments to further enhance the aesthetic of your smile, such as a whitening treatment. If you have chipped, broken or heavily stained teeth, you may wish to go for a set of veneers, which will completely transform your old smile into a glossy, gorgeous looking new one.

The results: is it worth the effort?

A smile makeover really can produce incredible, unbelievable results; even the most unattractive smile can be completely transformed and in a matter of weeks an unhealthy set of chipped, damaged, wonky and stained teeth can become a perfect set of glossy, stunning pearly whites. For many people, a great smile will always be worth the money, no matter what the final bill; however, for others, the mere thought of shelling out thousands of pounds will fill them with sheer dread; at the end of the day it’s a personal choice.
