Things are really heating up out there, which can only mean one thing: summer is here, and so is all the fun that comes along with this sunny season.  Whether you’re spending your days by the pool, taking a well-deserved vacation, or simply enjoying the slower pace and lighter traffic, summer has some nice perks you can only get this time of year.

Why not take advantage of the calm and use this time to take control of your oral health with the help of cosmetic dentistry. Here are three hot procedures that will leave you beaming like the Texas sun!

Cosmetic Bonding

Do your teeth have chips, uneven edges, or stains? Are you looking for a way to fix them that won’t break your budget? Cosmetic bonding is a great solution. Using a composite resin material, your dentist can repair minor tooth damage that both looks and feels just like your natural teeth. It can be done in just one visit, is totally painless, and requires no downtime whatsoever, so you can go right back to your busy (or not so busy!) life without missing a beat.

Teeth Whitening

Looking to whiten your teeth faster, safer, and more effectively than over-the-counter strips or gels? Zoom! Teeth Whitening treatments are a proven way to reduce stains and lighten the teeth by up to eight shades in just one visit. In about an hour you can take years off your appearance and restore that youthful glow your teeth once had.

If you’d rather do it gradually, try a Zoom! take home whitening kit, which can be done in 30 minute increments for several weeks in the comfort of your own home. Most patients see immediate results after their first treatment, with more noticeable changes after about two weeks.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin porcelain shells that fit over your teeth to create a beautiful, healthy-looking smile that can last up to 20 years. They can change the shade of your teeth as well as slightly change their shape or size to something more aesthetically pleasing if desired.

Porcelain veneers resist stains, so you can rest assured that your new smile will stay radiant with proper care, and they can be maintained just as you would your natural teeth: by brushing twice a day, flossing once a day, and seeing your dentist for your regular, semi-annual exams. Just be sure to use a soft bristled brush and non-abrasive toothpaste when you brush!

This summer, why not take advantage of the expanded availability at your dentist’s office and take a little “me time” to craft the smile of your dreams with the help of cosmetic dentistry!
