Bloomsburg, Danville, and Lewisburg, PA

The start of a new year symbolizes renewal or a fresh start. And in many ways, people often set personal, professional, or health goals to achieve throughout the year. You may not think about your smile often, unless you’re posing for photos or meeting someone new, but your smile makes a lasting impression on everyone you meet. If you aren’t happy with your smile, whether you’ve got crooked or gapped teeth or stained teeth, cosmetic dentistry can help. Unfortunately, many people don’t know where to start when it comes to cosmetic dentistry, which is why today on the blog, we share tips on how to glow-up your smile in 2024.

What is cosmetic dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry utilizes high quality materials paired with experience in the dental field to craft exceptional and attractive smiles. Depending on your smile needs, you may opt for something quick and basic like teeth whitening to remove stains, or perhaps you may benefit from more extensive treatments that address multiple concerns that you have with your smile. In those cases, a smile makeover may be right for you. Combining leading edge treatments, a smile makeover addresses every problem with your teeth or gums so that you can feel confident when smiling. To help you decide which treatments may be right for you, we’ve put together a list of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments in Bloomsburg.

Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening is a budget-friendly option to glow-up your smile this year. Instead of wasting your money on store-bought teeth whitening pens and strips, opt for our KoR teeth whitening system in Bloomsburg. KoR teeth whitening was developed by a dentist and offers an oxygenated whitening gel that quickly dissolves stain molecules. Kits are available in various levels, home, max, ultra, and ultra-T. Depending on the whitening system you choose, you may whiten your teeth with our in-office whitening treatments or at home using a take-home whitening kit. We can help you decide which option is right for you.

Porcelain Veneers

Bright white teeth are often something that many people try to attain, although removing stains from your teeth may not be enough to glow-up your smile this year. If you deal with crooked, overlapping, or gapped teeth, then ask our Bloomsburg cosmetic dentists about porcelain veneers. These customized porcelain shells are made with the highest quality of dental porcelain that look just like real tooth enamel. We permanently bond them to your teeth, revealing the illusion that your teeth are perfectly sized and aligned. The best part is that veneers can help you achieve the look of straighter teeth without orthodontics. However, veneers do not shift or realign your actual teeth. If you prefer cosmetic treatment that does such, consider Invisalign.

Invisalign

Traditional braces slowly shift teeth into proper alignment using metal brackets and wires that apply specific amount of pressure on your teeth. Like braces, Invisalign offers a similar effect but without the metal. Invisalign is crafted from clear aligners that fit snuggly over your teeth and are hardly noticeable. Invisalign patients report that their aligners are comfortable to wear and that they appreciate being able to remove their aligners for eating and oral hygiene efforts. Wear your aligners approximately 22 hours a day and you may notice results in as little as 12-18 months, although treatment length varies.
