How many resolutions did you make NYE 2018? We here at Vela Dental sure made a lot and this year we plan on keeping them. Sadly, that is most people’s intentions, but less than halfway through the year, most of those resolutions are already broken.
If you are like most people, your resolutions probably centered around improving your health, making better nutritional choices and reducing debt. According to recent studies,those are the top resolutions made every year (and broken.) When we talk with colleagues in the dentistry field and other dentists in Corpus Christi, we find that many of their patients mention a lot of resolutions but leave one key focus out—their dental health!
Yes, many people suffer silently with mild to severe dental problems or a smile that they are embarrassed about, yet never take the time to invest in their smile. A healthy smile does more than just make you feel better about yourself, it also improves your physical health.
Have you always wanted to feel happy about your smile, honestly—who doesn’t? Maybe your smile is just in need of whitening or maybe you need something a little more corrective such as braces or dental implants. Whatever your needs may be, let 2019 be the year you make an investment into yourself that will pay off time and time again.
Being the top dentist for dental implants in Corpus Christi, we see a lot of smiles that need a little nurturing and corrective procedures, so we have a few tips on how you can get the smile you’ve always wanted.
3 Ways To Boost Your Smile In 2019
Cosmetic Dentistry
Look, you can’t choose your genes, you get what you get and make the best of it, so sometimes you need to give genetics and nature a bit of a hand up. If you’re not happy with the smile you have, it can lead to other insecurities and hang-ups that can stunt social interaction and personal growth.
The good news is, through cosmetic dentistry, many of your problems can be resolved with solutions that can transform not just your smile, but your life. Whether it’steeth whitening procedures, full mouth reconstruction to replace bad dentures, or even something simple like porcelain veneers—Vela Dental Center can correct just about any problem with your smile.
Cosmetic dentistry in Corpus Christi is a popular option for many residents from all walks of life and all income levels—financing options such as CareCredit have made the most popular procedures more accessible to a wide range of patients. The most common procedures we perform on a daily basis are:
- Teeth Whitening –This is not like your average over the counter kit you buy at the HEB. Vela Dental Center uses a much more advanced system that can erase the effects of cigarette smoking, coffee stains, tobacco usage and more. When you leave our offices, you will see the difference in your smile right away.
- Porcelain Veneers – Think of veneers as cabinet resurfacing for your teeth. If you have minor gaps between teeth, teeth that are stained beneath the surface, or your teeth are misshapen and out of alignment—veneers are a very affordable option to overhaul your smile. Veneers are applied over your existing teeth and are so thin, yet durable that after a few days you forget you have them. Veneers are a perfect solution for minor to moderate aesthetic issues with teeth. However, if your teeth are failing and your smile is suffering due to something more severe, there is still an option for you.
- Dental Implants – When you lose a tooth or a tooth begins to decay it can cause a domino effect of issues most people don’t realize at the onset. There is also a stigma to losing a tooth that makes many people feel isolated when they shouldn’t. Studies show that nearly 70% of adults age 35-45 have lost at least one tooth to various causes. Amazingly just a few decades ago, there would be no other alternative for a missing tooth other than an awkward fitting bridge or denture. While these prosthetics do have their place in the dental field, they don’t feel natural, can cause speech problems, eating problems and may require a patient to alter their entire life. Modern dental implants in Corpus Christi, thankfully have changed all of that with implants that look, function, and feel like regular teeth. No more skipping foods you might not be able to handle, no more messy Dental implants fix a temporary problem, permanently.
