3 Cosmetic Dental Treatment for a Summer-Ready Smile

Smiling woman on the beachIf you’re spending more time at the gym to tone your body or laying out in the sun to work on your tan, don’t forget to get your smile ready for summer. You don’t have to undergo invasive or costly procedures to revamp your smile. Here are 3 cosmetic dental treatments that can transform your teeth just in time for summer.

1. Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are a cost-effective option to treat multiple issues at once. A veneer is a thin shell that’s bonded to the front side of a tooth, instantly improving its size, color, and shape. When bonding veneers to the teeth that show when you smile, you can fix many flaws simultaneously, like chips, discoloration, and gaps. 

The procedure is minimally invasive and is usually completed in just two appointments. You’ll save time and money because you won’t need multiple procedures. Your dazzling new smile can last for 10 years or more with the right care, like brushing and flossing.

2. Teeth Whitening

Teeth come in many shades and tones, and they also change color over time. You can’t put a price on the benefits of a bright white smile. If you’re feeling less than your best because of stains or discoloration, you can benefit from an in-office or at-home whitening treatment. 

Your teeth can get up to 8 shades whiter when used on surface stains. You’ll enjoy long-lasting improvement with the proper aftercare, like limiting dark foods and drinks.

3. Dental Bonding

Dental bonding is a popular cosmetic treatment because it is affordable and convenient. It offers both cosmetic and restorative benefits. A composite resin is shaded to the color of your enamel to blend in with your tooth when used to treat minor imperfections, like stains, chips, and decay. 

After just one appointment, you can have noticeable results that look natural. In some cases, dental bonding can be partially covered by your insurance. Your stunning new smile can last for 5 to 15 years before needing to be replaced.

You can look and feel your best by giving your smile a makeover. You won’t have to think twice before showing off your beautiful pearly whites.

I've been coming to this practice for years now since moving to the Raleigh area. The office is always clean and organized and the staff have always been friendly and communicative. Also, the TV's mounted to the ceiling are a nice touch! I've been seeing Dr. Laster for several years before our insurance changed causing me to change to Dr. Rensch. Both are so easy to talk to and always made me feel at ease.

From beginning to end 5/5! I thought I was experiencing a dental 911. I submitted an inquiry at 11:30pm and by 8am the next morning, Deidra (front office staff) was already leaving me a message. She was so sweet and patient at 8am lol. After our initial conversation, I informed all follow up dentists “I found my dentist office” but thank you so much! Today I was welcomed with the same energy from Diedre to Britany then finally Dr.Wrench. The music playing throughout the office was fantastic; ie music selection and volume. The TV’s on the ceiling and wall made my procedure so painless and enjoyable! I watched an entire Christmas movie lol! Dr. Wrench (apologies for spelling) made my teeth absolutely perfect! I left telling my friends and family I have a million dollar smile! 😊 I can tell he wanted them perfect and he did! Thank you all so much for being amazing! Sincerely, Your next patient.

Dr. Laster and Dr. Rensch go above and beyond for their patients. I have seen both for various treatments and I always feel comfortable and heard. They take time to listen and to talk with you. They explain your options and work with you to develop the best plan for your care. They are always upbeat and positive and you can tell they truly love what they do. The front desk staff is exceptional as well. Deidre is so caring and very sweet. She’s efficient, understanding and conscientious of your time. I highly recommend.

Connections Dentistry was great! The staff is so friendly and truly cares about their patients. My appointment was quick, and honestly the best dental experience I’ve had. They are great about offering helpful solutions without making you feel like you are being reprimanded… which was the reason I was putting off the dentist. 100% recommend!
