A bride to be has so many details to remember and one of the most important is the quality of her smile.  There will be plenty of photos, videos and guest to greet at the wedding so a bride’s smile is of the utmost importance.  After all, her smile should certainly be as white and beautiful as the dress she wears.
If you are a bride to be, consider some of the popular, painless cosmetic dentistry treatments modern brides made sure to get before the big day.

Professional dental whitening can be done in just one or two visits to the dental office.  A hydrogen peroxide based gel does the work, often in a dental dam and accelerated by heat.  Your teeth can be five to ten shades whiter to rival your gown after only one whitening treatment.

For very stained teeth or teeth that are chipped, your dentist can use dental bonding to transform the appearance of your teeth.  A tooth colored material is sculpted around your teeth and heated to harden it for natural looking, attractive teeth.

Finally, teeth that are extremely discolored, chipped, cracked or misaligned can be corrected with porcelain veneers.  Porcelain veneers are actually thin, tooth colored shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth to make them look better.

Before your wedding day arrives, make sure to visit your cosmetic dentist so you are ready to smile with confidence.
