Check Your Smile
Or Are You Ashamed To Smile?
|
Stains
Old fillings, injuries, smoking, or some foods may cause stains. Brown or gray teeth are often a side effect of some medications taken in childhood............. |
Crooked teeth may develop during childhood, because there was not enough space for the teeth to erupt................
|
Gaps Missing teeth or teeth too small for your mouth produce gaps between your teeth. Gaps can also result from gum disease
|
|
Rough Shape
Injuries or daily wear and tear can cause chips and fractures. A worn, flat look may result from grinding your teeth. |
When your teeth are uneven in length, they can look out of proportion. This can be the result of grinding etc.
|
Red Gums
Inflamed, puffy, red gums may bleed and pull away from the edges of the teeth. Unhealthy gums are often caused by improper oral hygiene. |
Are you satisfied with your smile?
When you look in the mirror, are you happy with what you see? Even a slight flaw in one of your teeth can detract from an otherwise attractive smile. Take another look.
If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, it's likely you can benefit from
cosmetic dentistry.
