Charlottesville area patients ask about the benefits of cosmetic dentistry

A beautiful smile can be a source of self-confidence and personal joy. When patients achieve or restore dazzling smiles, the positive effects can be far-reaching. Dr. Hart of Richmond Family Dentistry in the Charlottesville area discuses the many benefits of cosmetic dentistry.

Improved Confidence

There is a definite change in patient’s confidence and self-esteem when they have a beautiful smile. An unpleasant or unattractive smile can lead patients to hide teeth and gums when they laugh or speak. When improvements are made with cosmetic dentistry, they smile freely again and enjoy life-changing confidence.

Restore Youth

Older patients may experience discoloration, breakage, and misalignment. By undergoing one or more cosmetic procedures at Richmond Family Dentistry, patients look their best with more youthful smiles. Whiter, brighter, and better-aligned teeth can make you look and feel years younger!

Maintain Oral Health

Cosmetic dentistry isn’t just about looks. It can also help patients maintain oral health. Realigning teeth reduces the areas in which cavities and plaque flourish, and restoring missing teeth helps to eliminate the shifting of natural teeth.

Your Most Functional Smile

Cosmetic procedures such as dentures, bridges, and dental implants allow for improved efficiency of patients’ teeth. Missing teeth can reduce the ability to properly speak and eat, so restoring the smile after tooth loss is essential to healthy functioning.

Improved Quality of Life

The confidence and youthful radiance that comes from cosmetic dentistry procedures benefits everyone and can enhance the overall quality of life. Many patients look and feel better, and enjoy newfound confidence.

Dr. Hart and the Richmond Family Dentistry team are excited to offer those in the area the ability to transform their smiles. This can be done with one or more procedures in her state-of-the-art, holistic dental practice. She also provides many health services, including free oral cancer screenings for new family members who visit her dental facility in the Charlottesville area.
