Are You Ready for the Milestones That Occur in May?
May is just around the corner and brings with it summer weddings, high school and college graduation, and other once-in-a-lifetime occasions. It’s time to schedule a dental checkup and professional cleaning, teeth whitening or other procedures to have your smile ready for the myriad of photos that are sure to accompany these special times.
All the important events in life require some preparation. For graduation, you must complete your required schoolwork, get a cap and gown, invite family and friends, and of course plan a graduation party. It’s not too early to prepare other aspects of graduation to ensure that your smile looks good for all the photo ops that lie ahead!
Graduation is a once-in-a-lifetime milestone when you want to look your best. With cosmetic dentistry from Dr. Angela S. Evanson, DDS, you can significantly improve your smile for this special occasion! Long after the graduation ceremony, the pictures of you in cap and gown will be prominently hanging in your parent’s living room.
Dr. Evanson has several cosmetic procedures to help you achieve the smile you want before your special event.
Porcelain Veneers
Cosmetic imperfections often keep people from freely smiling! Porcelain veneers provide a dramatic change in your smile if you have broken or chipped teeth, worn-down teeth, or irregularly shaped teeth. Veneers create a virtual makeover that boosts your confidence as they improve your whole appearance.
A new and improved smile can be yours in two appointments. For a complete smile makeover, dental veneers might help you achieve the smile you’re hoping for.
How Do Veneers Work?
- A small amount of your tooth enamel is removed, and a mold of your tooth is taken. From the mold, a porcelain veneer is made to fit over the old tooth and sent to the dental lab for fabrication.
- A temporary covering is put in place over your teeth until the veneers are completed.
- In a few weeks, the temporary covering is removed and the finished veneers are bonded to the teeth.
Make an appointment with Dr. Evanson to see if you are a good candidate for veneers.
Teeth Whitening
If your teeth look yellowed and dingy, make an appointment with Dr. Evanson to have your teeth whitened. She can whiten your smile up to 5-10 shades in a 45-minute, in-office treatment.
She also has a take-home kit with a higher concentration formula of whitening agent than an over-the-counter kit. These kits have custom trays to provide you with prescription-strength gel. Wit this, you can safely remove stains and yellowing from your teeth at home.
Invisalign®, The Clear Alternative to Metal Braces
If your teeth are crowded, crooked, or gapped, your teeth for graduation pictures may need to be straightened.
- The Invisalign® teeth straightening system is far more comfortable than traditional metal braces.
- Invisalign® uses clear, comfortable aligners that are custom made to fit your smile. You simply wear these aligners over your teeth and instead of tightening metal brackets every month, you switch aligners every two weeks to gradually, gently, guide your teeth into a straightened position.
- The aligners are removable, so you can take them off when you need to eat, floss, brush your teeth, or have your pictures taken!
- Invisalign® is a good choice for those who want understated orthodontic treatment vs. traditional metal braces.
