Straighten Your Smile Without Braces; Smiles by Design in Livermore

Have you been thinking about making an improvement to your smile? Maybe you’d like your smile to be straighter…or just plain dazzling! With today’s modern dental technologies, you can have a straighter, whiter, more beautiful smile with the help of your dentist and without braces. Cosmetic dentistry is a huge industry today in the United States.

Think the only option for straightening teeth is braces? Not everyone who wants to improve the appearance of their teeth is interested in wearing braces and luckily there is a solution…veneers! Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that attach directly to your teeth. They can be used to fix gaps between the teeth or improve the appearance of teeth that are badly stained, misshapen or out of alignment.

Veneers are put on your teeth in just six simple steps:

1. First, your dentist will remove any decay or old fillings on the tooth.
2. A small amount of enamel is removed from the front of the tooth to make room for the veneer.
3. Next, the shape, size and shade of the tooth are determined and an impression is taken of the prepared tooth.
4. The impression of your tooth will be sent to a dental lab where the veneer is made.
5. Your dentist will check the color, size and shape of the veneer. This ensures a proper fit.
6. Finally, the veneer is shaped and polished and you get to show all of your friends your new beautiful smile.

Wouldn’t you agree that veneers are a far easier process than wearing braces for a couple of years!
