I was thinking of getting some cosmetic dentistry done to make my teeth look beautiful, but I’ve heard you have to get your teeth ground down. Is that true? I’m not too keen on that idea, to be honest.<\/p>\n

Mary,<\/p>\n

It’s lovely that you’re wanting to do a smile makeover. Cosmetic Dentistry<\/a> can completely change your appearance. it can even make you look years younger.<\/p>\n

You don’t have to grind down your teeth for cosmetic dentistry. Occassionally, you may need a dental crown for a damaged tooth, but that is not cosmetic.<\/p>\n

If you’re wanting to remake your smile, the best procedure would be to get porcelain veneers<\/a>. There is no grinding in that case. It’s possible you’ll need to have your teeth gently shaved for tooth preparation, but that would only be about the depth of a fingernail. \u00a0 There is no real visible difference between the prepared and unprepared teeth.<\/p>\n

You’ll want to find an artistic cosmetic dentist in order to ensure \u00a0that you get a beautiful smile. \u00a0An inexperienced cosmetic dentist could give you a very horrible smile, so be careful. \u00a0My recommendation is you look for one of the dentists recommended on the mynewsmile.com website. They’ll have listings for great cosmetic dentists in your area. \u00a0They only recommend the best. A dentist cannot just pay to get on their site.<\/p>\n
