Nothing says spring is in the air like the need to clean out your garage or house. But, there’s no reason that should only apply to your house. Make it a point of emphasis to have not only your living quarters cleaned out, but also your mouth!
Instead of getting caught with foul breath, start preparing now by setting aside time with a dentist in Lincoln!
First Impressions Matter for Your Smile
Did you know that one of the first features people notice when meeting others for the first time is their smile? Based on a survey conducted on behalf of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the first impression really comes down to whether or not you have an attractive smile. Based on the data, 48 percent of adults think a smile is the most memorable feature after they meet someone for the first time.
Thankfully, there are multiple ways you can get your smile tuned up and cleaned out for the spring. Dental cleanings ensure you’re not harboring any residual plaque, while cosmetic dental services help you achieve a smile you’re confident to show off!
A Professional Cleaning Offers Benefits That are Two-Fold
It’s no secret that routine cleanings are crucial for your oral health. They help you remove plaque from the teeth and gums you wouldn’t otherwise be able to remove. It’s also worth mentioning that plaque harbors bacteria, which does not exactly have the most pleasant odor. By removing this plaque as well as committing to daily oral care, you can reduce the risk of embarrassing yourself during your important upcoming date.
Dental cleanings are truly a great first step to ensuring positive oral health this upcoming year. But the boosts in your smile don’t have to stop there.
How to Impress Your Loved Ones with Your Smile
If your mouth is healthy but your smile is tainted with numerous stains, it can be very difficult to want to show off your smile in the first place. With the help of in-office and take-home whitening solutions, you don’t have to settle for a dull or stained smile.
In-office whitening is designed to make your teeth between 8 and 10 shades whiter in just one hour, leaving you with a beautiful smile you’re proud to show off. Of course, those who would prefer to whiten teeth on their own time can do so through customized whitening kits as well. This treatment utilizes the same professional-grade bleaching solutions as well as a pair of customized whitening trays designed to fit your smile exactly.
By having these treatments completed, your spring is sure to be a successful one. Schedule an appointment with a cosmetic dentist in Lincoln today to get started improving your smile!
