A beautiful smile gives a person self-confidence, opens doors for him and breaks down the barriers that stand between him and his communication with others. And if some of us sometimes hide his smile ... the reason, as they affirm, is that they hide behind them bad or unnatural teeth. In our highly competitive societies in many areas, a beautiful appearance has become, to a large extent, the difference between success and failure in an individual''s practical and personal life.

Because the mouth is the fulcrum on the face, it is not surprising that the smile plays a great role in introducing ourselves to others and in the impressions we leave with them. If we like it or not, we live in societies that care a lot about beauty and appreciate it. In the United States of America, for example, and since the beginning of the twentieth century, there has been a noticeable interest in the field of advertising and the idea of ​​the most beautiful best

BEATEFULL IS BETTER This is a tangible fact, especially in the vicinity of the entertainment industry, which includes a segment of actors and actresses and others who are under the spotlight.

It is not necessary for a person to be born beautiful, plastic surgery surgeries have a great role in improving the appearance, as it is the appropriate step in this regard, which is a beneficial investment in health and self, especially since dental care and conservation through cosmetic surgery turned today into a science taught in universities known ( Dentistry plastic surgery).

Although every dental treatment, whatever its type, is a dental cosmetic that improves its shape and function, but recently we began resorting to modern methods in improving and beautifying teeth, which have become a major role in developing the psychological and mood of the patient through the use of several types of treatments, which are :

First - some types of cosmetic fillings that have recently appeared in a developing generation called composites, as we have solved a big problem in cosmetic shape, closing distances, restoring teeth and completely changing the shape of the tooth, as cosmetic fillings restore broken, cracked and faded teeth to their natural state by rebuilding the surface using A plastic (composite) or ceramic material that is attached to the tooth surface by special adhesives. The internal and external cosmetic fillings on the chewing surfaces of the posterior teeth can also be restorations of the same tooth color that can be placed in place of dark amalgam fillings or replaced. They are of two types: ceramic that is manufactured in the laboratory or composite fillings placed directly in the same session, which can also be manufactured in the laboratory, and laboratory-manufactured ceramic faces are used specially in the form of teeth in order to correct cases of discoloration and to give the teeth the perfect stacking and fixed color, and although they are more expensive than cosmetic fillings, they are more durable. And stain color.

Second - Teeth whitening, which has recently become the interest of a large number of people, for the speed and ease with which bleaching is done, although many people have wrong ideas about it and that it is harmful to the teeth or the like. The reason is that in the past, bleaching was done by applying materials on the teeth that scraped or removed the bulk layer from the tooth port. But due to the problems caused by this method, it was stopped permanently and banned globally. Then another method appeared for teeth whitening and it was called home whitening. It takes a completely different method from the previous one, and it does not harm the teeth at all. But this method is considered by some to be difficult because it needs one to two weeks for the patient to obtain the required degree of white. Now, we have begun to rely on a modern bleaching device that works within one hour only inside the clinic and works to direct a type of focused lighting on the teeth after placing the bleaching materials on them, so the lighting activates these materials to work to remove pigmentation and colorings from the enamel and dentin. This method is very convenient, fast and suitable for all persons. However, there is a traditional question that patients always ask about the period during which the whiteness of the teeth lasts after the work of whitening, and the answer depends on the patient himself and the extent of his practice of smoking or using colored foods and drinks.

Finally, it can be said that a dentist, thanks to the developments that have occurred in modern dental materials and methods, can help you get the smile you desire throughout your life.
