Your smile says so much about who you are. What are your options when your smile doesn’t accurately reflect your personality? Within seconds of an initial meeting, your smile (and your feeling about your smile) can create an impression on others that should be positive and inviting. You should feel confident and self-assured about the health of your teeth, the freshness of your breath, and the stability of your smile. You should feel free to laugh and smile openly, with no worries about discolorations, gaps, bad breath or unsightly fillings.
In a business setting, it is often necessary to speak before a group or conduct personal introductions and presentations. The appearance of your smile conveys many non-verbal cues to your associates and clients. By displaying a clean uniform smile, you are conveying that you pay attention to details. You are also showing that you take pride in your health and appearance. If you subconsciously hide your smile with your hand or avoid smiling, you could be sending the negative message that you are unapproachable.
Porcelain veneers, dental implants, teeth whitening, and periodontal therapy are just a few effective solutions for creating a positive first impression.
Veneers are thin, strong shells of porcelain that are permanently bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. They can be beautifully shaped and shaded to improve the appearance of your natural teeth. Veneers can also be used to make the teeth appear straighter, longer, shorter, or wider.
Dental implants are permanent titanium posts placed in the jaw bone to replace one or more missing teeth. In most cases, implants are often the best solution for tooth replacement.
Teeth whitening is one of the most commonly utilized cosmetic solutions in dentistry. Whitening the teeth with take-home bleach trays is still the most effective and most predictable whitening method available.
Periodontal therapy is used to treat gum disease through the use of specialized instruments and medicaments. Heavy buildup, stain, and halitosis (bad breath) can all be eliminated to improve your health and your confidence.
For veneers, dental implants, teeth whitening, and periodontal therapy in Charlotte, schedule a visit with Dr. Picot today. You deserve a smile that is truly worthy of first impressions.
