It’s wedding season! Whether you’re going to be walking down the aisle or you’ve just been invited to a family member’s big day, you want to look your best — after all, you know you’re going to have your photo taken at the wedding. To help your smile look as white and flawless as the bride’s gown, you may want to visit your cosmetic dentist in Marlton to receive one of the following services.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening is one of the most popular pre-wedding cosmetic services because it is simple, fast, and affordable. Plus, it is safer and more effective than the bleaching products you can find at the local grocery store.
Dr. Petulla offers two types of whitening:
- In-office Zoom! whitening. This treatment can brighten your teeth by up to eight shades in a single appointment! It combines a powerful bleaching gel with a special light; they work together to break up even deep-set stains.
- At-home whitening. A custom bleaching kit takes about two weeks to produce dramatic results. This is a great choice for folks whose teeth are a little on the sensitive side or who may find it uncomfortable to undergo an in-office whitening treatment.
Veneers and Direct Bonding
Both porcelain veneers and dental bonding can transform your smile by reshaping your teeth and covering a range of flaws, including discoloration, cracks, chips, and minor misalignment.
- Dental bonding is a composite resin that the dentist places over teeth. It is hardened via a special light. The procedure takes only one appointment and is best for correcting just one or two imperfections. The results may last for five to seven years.
- Porcelain veneers, ultra-think pieces of porcelain that are placed on the fronts of teeth, tend to last longer than bonding (15 years or longer) and are more resistant to stains. They are a fantastic option if you want a total smile makeover.
Enamel Modification
If you have white or brown spots on your tooth enamel, they can be impossible to remove via your own efforts. Sometimes these spots do not even respond to professional whitening. That’s why we offer a procedure known as enamel modification. It is a painless, fast, and effective way to correct these unsightly areas and restore your smile to its original glory.
Metal-Free Restorations
Restorations, such as fillings and crowns, are often used to repair decayed teeth. However, they are also useful for improving the way teeth look. For example, if you have a misshapen tooth, a natural-looking crown may be the best way to turn it into a harmonious part of your smile. Also, if you have had metal fillings in your mouth for years and suspect they may not last much longer, we can replace them with a tooth-colored resin.
