Cosmetic Dentistry Fast or Slow?

Cosmetic Dentistry – Fast or Slow?

Remember the childhood fable of the tortoise and the hare – today they are the turtle and rabbit. But the story remains the same – does fast or slow win the race? When a patient discusses the appearance of their smile with us the discussion often leads to orthodontics or instant orthodontics. That’s where the turtle and the rabbit come into play. In our society, immediate gratification often is the desire whether it is the best solution or not. In cosmetic dentistry there are opinions and values, no right or wrong, just emotions and the desire for a beautiful healthy smile. So what are the pros and cons?

Orthodontics is the turtle. It takes time to move teeth to the best position. This is accomplished over a period of months or years, depending on the severity of the case. Orthodontic success is achieved with a series of wires, brackets and bands being placed on or over your teeth. With specific engineering the dentist will shift the teeth to help you achieve your goal of a beautiful smile with gorgeous straight teeth.

Instant orthodontics isn’t actually orthodontics at all. This is the rabbit of achieving a beautiful smile. With 2 -3 appointments your dentist can give the smile you have always desired. This is achieved with restorative dentistry such as porcelain veneers. The appointments usually are 2-3 hours in length and depending on the goals, some reshaping of the teeth may be required.
Instant orthodontics not only will give you the straight teeth you are seeking but it will allow you to change the shape, size and color of your teeth as well.

Should you have any questions regarding orthodontics or instant orthodontics, please do not hesitate to give our office a call at 561-394-9000. We will arrange an appointment that will work best with your schedule and get you on your way to a beautiful smile.
