4 Ways Porcelain Veneers Can Change Your Life

Some people might find it hard to believe that better teeth can transform your life. People who have long been ashamed of their teeth, however, know exactly how much bad teeth negatively impact them. Porcelain veneers are one of the most versatile and smile-changing cosmetic dentistry procedures available. If you have multiple complaints about the appearance of your teeth, veneers can probably address nearly all of them, from chips to gaps, misalignment to short teeth, and so much more.

Here are just four ways porcelain veneers can change your life for the better:

1. You will be more confident.

How many times have you shied away from a social event, a job opportunity, a chance to meet new people, or a camera because you’re embarrassed by your teeth. You know you’re smart, interesting, and have much to contribute, but your teeth are holding you back from drawing too much attention to yourself.

There is no question that having a smile you love and teeth that look good are a major boost to your confidence. Your life will open up in amazing new ways when you are no longer shy about smiling, laughing, or speaking your mind. With porcelain veneers you can change not only how you look but how you feel about yourself.

2. You can jump-start your career.

Being self-conscious about your appearance and thinking that people are always looking at your less-than-perfect smile can hold you back in your career. You may not pursue a job because you feel your teeth make you look less than worthy. You may tank every job interview because you’re so self-conscious about your teeth that you come across as hiding something or uncomfortable in your own skin.

Porcelain veneers make your teeth – and you – look good. When you feel better about yourself and your appearance, the dividends can pay off professionally. Exuding confidence, speaking up, and not being reticent about giving your opinion will have others perceiving you as capable, successful, approachable, and intelligent. Stand out at work for the right reasons.

3. You can improve your love life.

Let’s face facts: No one wants to kiss someone who has bad teeth. But the first problem is whether you’re attracting people in the first place. Are you reluctant to introduce yourself to someone in person, or give them a smile to show you’re interested? Do you only post serious-face or closed-smile photos in your online dating profiles because your teeth make you feel bad about yourself?

Your porcelain veneers smile makeover has the power to give you confidence and make you look approachable. Your new smile will send the right cues instead of giving off body language that screams “I’m not worthy.” A transformed smile will give you the self-esteem to show that you’re interested.

4. You will have better oral health.

When you love how your teeth look, you will be more likely to take good care of them so they stay beautiful and white. Teeth that are well cared for are less susceptible to oral health problems, and the last thing you want to do is ruin an immaculate set of porcelain veneers by succumbing to gum disease or allowing a cavity to go untended.

Porcelain veneers may be resistant to stains, but they still need to be kept clean. Daily brushings and flossing and keeping up with visits to your Haymarket dentist every six months will allow you to maintain a beautiful smile.

Make an appointment to see your Haymarket cosmetic dentist, Dr. Sina Reangber, to talk about porcelain veneers or other cosmetic dentistry treatments that are right for you.
