It’s Never Too Late to Improve Your Smile (Start Here)
If you could change anything about your smile, what would it be?
Most of us can list at least one thing, if not multiple.
Why is that? Why do we all want a beautiful smile?
It’s pretty simple when you think about it: You wear your smile 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It never comes off.
Studies show your smile not only affects your self-confidence but also how others perceive and even treat you.

What is a Smile Makeover?
A smile makeover is a method of improving the appeal of your smile. It enhances your overall facial look through different treatment modalities involving cosmetic dentistry. Many factors are considered for a complete smile makeover, which is decided according to an individual’s needs and overall oral health condition.
Some of the factors considered are tooth color, the shape of a tooth, width of the tooth, alignment of the tooth with lips and other oral structures, condition of your gum tissues, etc.
You see, smiling releases endorphins (a natural “feel good” hormone), but when you smile less you may not be releasing as many endorphins (here’s a great article from Psychology Today on how it all works).
The bottom line is that smiling more can make you happy, but if you aren’t confident in the appearance of your teeth and gums, then you probably don’t want to smile very much.

8 Great Ways to Improve Your Smile
I Want to Fix My Smile. What Procedure Should I Get?
Whitening
When it comes to getting a whiter and brighter smile, there are a variety of teeth-whitening products you can try. Your main options are in-office or at-home bleaching. (Look for a whitening product that has earned the ADA Seal of Acceptance.) Before starting any whitening treatment, you should speak with your dentist. Your dentist will tell you what, if any, whitening procedures will work best for you.
Veneers
Veneers are thin shells crafted of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of teeth. Unlike bonding, it is necessary to remove a small amount of enamel from your tooth to accommodate the shell. Based on a model of your mouth, they are meant to look like your natural teeth.
Crowns
A crown is a good way to cover teeth that are discolored or badly shaped. A crown can make your tooth stronger and improve its appearance. Crowns can also be used to attach bridges, protect a weak tooth from breaking or restore one that’s already broken.
Bonding
Not happy with the way your teeth look? Bonding may be the answer. For some, it can help restore the natural look of your teeth. Bonding is a process where the dentist attaches or “bonds” materials directly to your tooth. Your natural tooth enamel and dentin are fused together with bonding materials such as porcelain and resins to create a strong structure that looks great.
Braces
While orthodontic work that begins while a child is growing helps produce optimal results, that doesn’t mean that adults can’t have braces. Thanks to advances in orthodontic treatments, metal brackets are not your only option. Removable aligners, or “invisible braces,” or clear plastic brackets can all be used to straighten crooked or crowded teeth.
Brushing and Flossing
It may seem obvious, but brushing and flossing are the most important tools for keeping a healthy mouth. Brush twice and floss at least once a day to prevent cavities, and improve your oral health.
Implants
Dental implants are a popular and effective way to replace missing teeth. Surgically placed in the upper or lower jaw, they function as a sturdy anchor for replacement teeth. Made of titanium and other materials, implants are designed to hold restorations like crowns or bridges blend in with your other teeth, and are a long-term option for restoring your smile.
Regular Dental Visits
Something as simple as going to your dentist twice a year is one of the easiest things you can do to improve your smile. Aside from checking for cavities and oral diseases, and doing routine cleaning, your dentist can also provide other options for making your smile even brighter.
