Say cheese; cosmetic dental surgery offers a bright opportunity for people who are not content with their facial appearance and want an enhanced and more photogenic smile. Smiles are important. As Psalms indicates, even the Lord smiles: "God be merciful unto us, and bless us; and cause his face to shine upon us; That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations. Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him." (Psalm 67:1-7) People living a faithful life give God reason to smile. Therefore, sing the praises of joy and adoration with a smile. Although the Lord is probably not concerned with how bright and attractive a person's smile is while they're praising Him, people certainly do care about their toothy grin. The increase in sales of teeth whiteners over the past decade is an indication of the value some people put on their teeth and smile.
In fact, teeth whitening procedures are considered by many sources to be the number one cosmetic dental surgery procedure. Perhaps there is good reason for the desire to have healthy shiny teeth. Dingy or cracked teeth don't generally make a big splash on the social scene. The smile is the first thing many people notice about another person when they're meeting for the first time. Food, smoking, coffee, tea and even wine discolor teeth and make them unpleasant to see. Poor oral hygiene also causes the teeth to look old and dingy and can result in unsightly gingivitis and halitosis. Bleaching products that whiten teeth are available in most stores. These products can go a long way toward enhancing the appearance of a person's smile. But whitening and bleaching products tend to work best on teeth that are fairly healthy to begin with. Teeth that are crooked, chipped, missing, or gapped can be unsightly and will need more costly work and care. Some cosmetic dental surgery procedures use veneers products that are made out of composite or porcelain laminates. All veneers adhesively bond to the surface of a tooth to correct flaws. Veneers are used to repair chips and cracks in teeth. They are also good for improving a worn and severely discolored tooth. However, using veneers one several or all of the teeth would be impractical because of the costs involved. According to a cosmetic dental surgery site, veneers are also good for fixing gaps in teeth. Another cosmetic procedure uses implants. Basically, implants are artificial replacements. Implants are used to compensate for tooth loss. People who have lost many teeth appear to have faces that sag. Additionally, many people who have lost teeth look older than they actually are.
Just a quick note on a couple more cosmetic dental surgery procedures: inlays and onlays. These are called indirect fillings. Both inlays and onlays are made from porcelain or composite materials. According to online sources, they are both long-lasting cosmetic fillings for decayed teeth. Inlays and onlays are also used to treat teeth with other types of structural damage, too. Traditional fillings are molded into place during a dental visit. But inlays and onlays are made in a laboratory. They are then fitted and bonded during cosmetic procedures. Discolored, broken, or chipped teeth are sometimes repaired using a technique known as composite bonding. A composite material is molded into the cavity or onto the surface of a tooth. Once sculpted into shape, the composite is hardened with a high-intensity light. The composite blends with the surrounding tooth material and the other teeth. So cosmetic surgery purportedly cannot only enhance a person's smile but make them look younger as well.
Of course, a dental make over using cosmetic dental surgery techniques is only part of the answer. Poor lifestyle choices can make the rest of the body look old and worn out. So money spent on dental work will be wasted, if the entire body isn't maintained. Unfortunately, despite what infomercials tell people, an overall healthy body and mouth don't come easily, in a bottle, or from a dental chair. Therefore, if a person is going to take time and spend a ton of money on a great smile, they should put together the complete package. That includes spiritual health, too. Keep in mind, cosmetic dental surgery differs from tradition dental procedures, which actually maintain or improve the health of the teeth. In other words, traditional dentistry is concerned with proper oral hygiene. This includes preventing, diagnosing and treating oral disease.
On the other hand, cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of a person's teeth, mouth and smile. And cosmetic dental surgery is expensive. Since the procedures are elective, dental insurance doesn't cover the costs. One dental website explaining the benefits and costs of cosmetically enhancing a smile indicates that porcelain tooth veneers alone may cost $400 to $1,500 per single tooth! The cost may be prohibitive for some people. Also cosmetic surgery doesn't necessarily produce a finished product that will last indefinitely. Although dental technology and materials have improved considerably over the years, materials tend to wear down, crack, chip, or weaken. As a result, the same or more costly restorative procedures may need to be duplicated several years later. As an enticement, modern technology may allow a person to see what his or her teeth and smile will look like after the cosmetic procedure is completed. Once the initial assessment has been completed the dentist should be able to provide a detailed cost of the restorative work.
