Valentine’s Day is the day of love. On February 14 of each year, we express our love to others with gifts of love and compassion. Whether your favorite is a heart-shaped box of chocolates, red roses, or a nice dinner, there is surely no one way to show someone how much you care for them.
Speaking of love, do you LOVE your teeth?
If you don’t find your teeth particularly attractive, it might be hard to love them. Stained teeth, chipped and cracked teeth, gaps between your teeth, or missing teeth might make it difficult to truly love your teeth. But, you can do something about that!
Through the wonders of contemporary cosmetic dentistry you can whiten stained teeth, conceal chipped and cracked teeth, fill a gap between teeth, and replace a tooth you have grown too used to being missing.
- If your teeth have become stained, and regular tooth brushing just doesn’t do the trick, professional teeth whitening can help eliminate those stains from years of smoking, coffee and tea, or red wine. Dr. Majka would love to help!
- Accidents happen. So whether your teeth have become chipped or cracked as a result of an accident or just a hard kernel in that bucket of move popcorn, dental veneers can help. Made of durable porcelain, dental veneers are adhered to the fronts of your teeth to cover chips and cracks, or really tough stains that whitening has failed to remove. In fact, dental veneers are ideal for filling a gap between teeth, and lengthening short teeth to provide a more even smile. Dr. Majka would love to help!
- It seems we all know someone missing a tooth – or perhaps a few teeth. Missing teeth can cause you to smile less, have a lowered self-esteem, and even shy away from certain foods that can cause discomfort when eating. Many options are available today to replace missing teeth. From crowns to bridges to implants, discuss the option that’s right for you with your dentist. Dr. Majka would love to help!
- Even the most simple thing such as routine dental care will go a long way to loving your teeth. Healthy teeth can last a lifetime – and nothing compares to a bright shiny smile to show your love. By brushing and flossing properly twice daily, and seeing your dentist twice a year for a scheduled dental cleaning and exam, you can show your teeth just how much you love them! D. Majka can help!
Remember your teeth this Valentine’s Day by caring for them every single day. If you find it hard to love your teeth as they are, you can actually change them (unlike your mate)! Cosmetic dentistry can help you achieve that gorgeous smile you have been dreaming of. And, to you and your teeth, a very Happy Valentine’s Day!
