Starting Spring Right With a Smile Makeover

Spring is the time for new growth and new life! The tulips poke through the leftover snow, giving us all just a little taste of the warmth and sunshine that’s to come. It’s time to open up those windows and take a deep, cleansing breath. It’s as though your life gets a mood-boosting restart. With the warmer weather often comes an intense desire to clean, reorganize, or fix anything that might’ve gone wrong throughout the long winter months.

Want an extra way to boost your mood this spring? What if you could transform your smile, reverse signs of aging, and let those teeth shine? You can—by treating yourself to a smile makeover. 

Embracing the Brighter Side: Benefits and Options

Teeth can take on a yellow hue for many different reasons. Some stains are avoidable, like those caused by tobacco, coffee, or wine. But there is one unavoidable cause of tooth discoloration: age.

Have you ever found yourself staring in the mirror realizing that your once-bright teeth are becoming tarnished? Don’t panic! You’re not alone. A whiter smile is just around the corner, ready to boost your confidence and make you feel better after a long winter.

Remember, the best way to find the perfect whitening solution for you is to ask your dentist. Not only do they know your oral health history, but they will be aware of all the products on the market. But over-the-counter options aren’t the only way to brighten your smile. We here at Berrien Dental offer professional in-office teeth whitening. This way, you can brighten those teeth in one day without worrying about any mishaps.

The benefits of whiter teeth aren’t limited to cosmetics, though that certainly boosts your self-confidence. It can create a snowball effect, making you want to take proactive steps to protect your oral health. It’s just like buying that new car. You’re more likely to vacuum the carpets weekly or take it to the local car wash regularly. After all, it’s new, it’s special, and you want to care for it. The same applies to your teeth!

Your Teeth-Whitening Journey

If you decide that an in-office whitening treatment is for you, here’s what to expect. When you arrive for your appointment, the first step will be to clean and polish your teeth. This makes sure there’s no plaque or other debris on the surface of your teeth.

Once the teeth are clean, we will isolate them well to protect the surrounding gum tissue. Then we’ll apply a professional-grade bleaching agent and activate it with a special light. When the whitening treatment is done, we will rinse the solution from your mouth and apply a fluoride treatment if necessary. From start to finish, the entire process takes around an hour.

Best of all, caring for your freshly whitened teeth is easy. Just continue brushing them twice a day for two minutes at a time and floss at least once a day. You might be surprised to find that you actually want to care for them!

Freshen your smile with a smile makeover.

When spring is in the air, it sparks a special kind of growth in everyone. The buds on the trees, the fresh smell in the air, and the little bulbs poking through the soil bring smiles to everyone’s faces! It’s also a common time to freshen our homes by deep cleaning or applying a fresh coat of paint. With spring being such a time of renewal, why not treat yourself to a renewed smile with cosmetic dentistry? 

It’s the perfect time for a spring smile makeover here at Berrien Dental. In only one short visit, you will leave with a smile noticeably brighter than before. You will be surprised how much your confidence improves and how caring for your smile no longer feels like a chore.
