The holidays are a good time to kiss and get kissed. After all, mistletoe is hanging everywhere, and it’s a tradition to kiss someone at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve. Of course, whether you are able to give or get any kisses depends on your mouth. If you have a mouth filled with teeth that are yellow, crooked, or decaying, no one is going to want to give you a smooch, no matter how much mistletoe you stand under. Your Milford Cosmetic Dentist, Dr. Mitchell I. Quintner, talks about ways to make your smile attractive and kissable this holiday season.
Take Care of Your Teeth
The most important thing you can do for your teeth is to practice good oral hygiene. Make sure you are brushing your teeth at least twice a day and also flossing at least once a day. To make your breath as kissable as the rest of your mouth, don’t neglect to clean your tongue, preferably with a tongue scraper or brush rather than your toothbrush. Also remember to see your dentist every six months for a checkup and cleaning.
I’m Dreaming of a White Smile
If your teeth are not as white as they could be, perhaps professional teeth whitening might be an option. Over-the-counter whitening products might be somewhat effective, but the most effective way to whiten your smile is through your cosmetic dentist. Our office offers two terrific options for teeth whitening. You can opt for our in-office procedure, which takes about one hour. You could also opt for our take-home option, where you will wear your custom trays for up to two hours a day for up to two weeks until your teeth are at the shade of white you desire.
Restore Your Crooked Teeth
If your teeth are crooked or out of alignment, our office offers Invisalign. With the help of clear, removable aligners, your teeth can be moved back into the proper position without the need for tradtional braces. With Invisalign, you never have to worry about loose or broken wires. Oral hygiene is much easier to control, and you can eat anything you could before you began the procedure. Let us know today if you think Invisalign might be right for you!
