There\u2019s certainly something about an attractive grin that makes people go crazy, but what exactly <em>are <\/em>those somethings? Keep reading, and you\u2019ll find out what onlookers love about three specific traits \u2013 and how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jldentalstl.com\/cosmetic-dentistry.html\">cosmetic dentistry<\/a> can enhance your teeth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Bright Pearly Whites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental staining is the smile blemish that gets complained about the most. Unfortunately, it can happen naturally with daily wear and tear! Most people at one point or another wish they had brighter, shinier pearly whites. If you relate, don\u2019t worry \u2013 your cosmetic dentist has a solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike store-bought whitening products, your dentist\u2019s professional take-home kit includes a powerful bleaching agent that\u2019s specifically formulated to slip through the pours in your enamel. This allows the agents to target the source of a stain. In just two weeks, you\u2019ll notice a drastic difference in the shade of your grin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Symmetry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s say you cut a very fancy cake in half. If the right and left sides look like perfect mirrors of each other, the cake is <em>symmetrical<\/em>. Many people find symmetry to be beautiful, and a balanced smile is certainly attractive. Few, however, are actually born with a truly symmetrical grin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Porcelain veneers and dental bonding can work magic when it comes to giving your teeth a consistent look! If some of your crowd-facing pearly whites are smaller, shorter, or thinner than others, a veneer can conceal their true shape behind a flawless porcelain fa\u00e7ade. Bonding, meanwhile, can add mass or length without requiring any alterations to your natural enamel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Seamlessness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The third trait that can give a smile that \u201cwow factor\u201d is seamlessness. Chips, cracks, and obvious dental work can interrupt the effortless grace of your grin. Since bacteria can more easily collect near dental breakage, your teeth might also look dingy or tarnished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another situation dental bonding can help with. The material is made from a tooth-colored resin, so after your dentist sculpts it over the chips and cracks in your teeth, you won\u2019t be able to tell where the natural enamel stops and the dental work begins. Similarly, the days of a metal amalgam crown or filling being your only option are gone \u2013 now, restorations can blend in and add to the beauty of your smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Cosmetic Dentistry Consultation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want pearly whites that lend your aesthetics a Hollywood charm, talk to your cosmetic dentist and schedule a consultation. After examining your mouth and getting a sense of your treatment goals, they\u2019ll be able to help you determine which solution is right for you. Your dream smile really could be just a phone call away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jldentalstl.com\/meet-the-mears.html\">Drs.
