An Improved Smile With Straight Teeth

By Harry Izzo


Some people always look nice in photographs. Others wonder why they didn't close their mouth during the shot. They may just not understand how to smile for the camera or they are self-conscious about the condition of their teeth. Either way you look at it, if misaligned teeth bother you, you can easily have been straightened.

Teenagers all over the planet are mindful of the way they appear to others. They are at an age when they want to be part of the group and be accepted by friends. This is no different for adults. Adults also want to look good for others. It is very clear that a good set of teeth influences how you are looked on by others. A teeth straightening procedure can be used by your dentist to fix this problem.

To correct your teeth dental braces are used. Every person is different so what suits one patient may not be the right solution for another. With your dentist you can discuss alternatives for straightening your teeth.

To straighten teeth, metal braces are often used. You see them a lot on teenagers. Teenagers have a lot of time on their hands; metal braces can be used, because time is not such a big factor for them. Adults want more of a quick solution. Dental braces need about one or two years to finish the job. After that dental retainers are prescribed by your dentist until the teeth are in proper position.

Dental braces make the wait worthwhile. Think of the kids you knew in high school who wore them and compare that to how great they look today.

To straighten chipped teeth you first have to cover them with dental veneers. These are thin strips of ceramic, usually made of porcelain, that are attached to the front of your teeth. They bond to your teeth and after they, do they function and feel just like normal teeth. Unfortunately they are not permanent, but they are known to last for a good 10 years before your dentist recommends replacing them.

The new trend these days is invisible dental braces. They act like retainers; they align your teeth and are removable. They are just as effective as metal braces for straightening your teeth. You may want to visit your local dentist for more info on how they work.
