Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. The pressure is on to give a great present—but have you figured out what you’re going to get your special someone yet?
There are so many possibilities. But ask yourself this question: what is meaningful, will be beautiful, and can keep on giving? It’s not diamond jewelry— it’s cosmetic dentistry!
What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry includes a wide range of procedures and treatments to give your special someone the smile they’ve always dreamed of. It will last for years, and it’s a great way to show your love for someone. Here are just a few ways cosmetic dentistry can make a difference:
1. Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is an increasingly popular way to make your smile look brighter and healthier. Everyone loves a mouth full of pearly whites! There are many different ways to whiten teeth, including in-office treatments and at-home treatments.
2. Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is used to correct minor flaws in teeth, such as unsightly gaps and chips. This is a non-invasive procedure that uses colored composite resin material to cover as many teeth as needed, leaving them looking natural and healthy.
3. Porcelain Veneers or Lumineers
Porcelain veneers and Lumineers are similar to bonding but are a slightly more involved way to achieve a more attractive smile. Unlike dental bonding, which lasts only a few years, these two options are an even better investment and can last for decades.
4. Six Month Smiles®
For those of us who struggle with teeth that are not perfectly aligned, Six Month Smiles treatment could be the perfect choice. Six Month Smiles use clear brackets and tooth-colored wires to slowly move teeth into position over a period of months. Essentially, they’re a less noticeable and accelerated type of braces!
Giving Cosmetic Dentistry as a Gift
If you choose to give a loved one the gift of cosmetic dentistry this Valentine’s Day, keep in mind that it generally does not make a good “surprise” gift—make sure it’s something your loved one actually wants in the first place to avoid any possible arguments. Either get the okay from them, or from their friends or family, that they already want to improve their smile.
