We all have parts of our bodies that we don’t particularly like. This could be a little excess weight around the hips or possibly even the colour of our hair. However, these are things that we can change either by dieting or by changing hair colour. But what happens when you have teeth that you don’t like? Crooked, stained or uneven teeth that really spoil the appearance of the smile – what can be done to change these aspects of your appearance? The answer is cosmetic dentistry.
Until about forty years ago, dentistry was purely a functional affair designed and utilised to protect and preserve the health of your teeth. But dentists soon began to realise that they could actually improve the condition of the teeth using various procedures. This led to the introduction of treatments such as tooth whitening and dental veneers which improved both the alignment and the colour of the teeth.
Over the years, as technology improved, so did the dental treatments that were offered to patients. Initially expensive new treatments were soon absorbed into the mainstream and normalised. The prices came down and more and more people decided they wanted to have treatment. After all, the smile is a very important part of your appearance and can really affect first impressions.
City of London dentists now offer a wide range of treatments capable of achieving amazing results with even the most difficult of teeth. There is virtually no set of teeth that could not be drastically improved with a number of cosmetic procedures. To find out more about cosmetic dentistry and what it could do for your teeth, make an appointment with a City of London dentist.
