How many times a day do you smile? Bet you do it more than you think. Smiling is one of the most essential ways we communicate with each other. A smile can express friendship, good will, sympathy, trust- a whole range of subtle communications, even from across a room. It’s the one thing you wear every day, and that most people remember you by, so isn’t it sad that so many people are too self conscious to let their smiles out to play? Despite good oral hygiene habits, today’s lifestyle tends to leave our “pearly whites” looking more like dingy beige. Home bleaching kits just don’t make an impact, and even professional tooth whitening from a bonafide NYC cosmetic dentist might not do the trick if your staining goes deep enough. So what’s a smile deprived person to do? Sit back and relax, because Dr. Jeff Golub Evans has a solution for you.
Stains That Just Won’t Budge
Tooth staining can be put into two basic categories: surface staining and structural discoloration. Surface staining is caused by agents that coat the surface of your teeth with a layer of discoloration. Tobacco products, coffee, tea, and wine are all examples of surface staining agents. These stains may be too much for a home bleaching kit, but they’ll melt like butter beneath professional tooth whitening. Structural discolorations are more difficult to deal with. Certain medications, cavity damage, tooth trauma, and natural aging can cause your teeth to become discolored inside and out. Since the discoloration runs through and through, even the most powerful surface cleansing procedures will have no discernible effect. Fortunately there is something that Dr. Jeff Golub Evans and his team of NYC dentistry staff can do for you.
Let’s Hear It For Lumineers
In NYC, lumineers are rapidly gaining popularity over veneers because they require only moderate surface etching to securely bond, making this an anesthesia free, in and out procedure. The structure of your natural teeth is preserved so that, unlike veneers, lumineers can be removed if you change your mind at some future date. They cover your teeth with natural looking custom colored porcelain, giving you a gift you can give again and again- a healthy, beautiful smile.
