When we think of the typical signs of ageing, wrinkles and grey hair come to mind. But teeth can also change with age and affect how old we look. The good news is there are several treatments that can help.
Brighten Your Teeth
Ageing affects the outer layer of tooth enamel, wearing it down over time and exposing the yellowish dentin layer underneath. Stains from smoking, coffee, and wine also build up gradually.
Good dental hygiene, combined with a professional clean twice a year, helps keep your teeth looking their best. If staining has become noticeable, professional teeth whitening can make a visible difference in about an hour.
Restore Alignment
Over time, teeth can shift. Chewing and clenching wears them down and can cause further movement. If your teeth have become crooked, there are now discreet options available. Clear aligners such as Invisalign can straighten teeth gradually without the need for traditional metal braces.
Repair Damaged or Missing Teeth
Missing, damaged, or broken teeth can affect both appearance and oral health. Porcelain veneers and crowns can repair damaged or uneven teeth. Missing teeth can be replaced with dental implants, which are permanent, custom-made, and designed to match the surrounding teeth. Replacing missing teeth also helps prevent the further bone loss that can occur when a gap is left untreated.
