On the red carpet, while dazzling dresses often capture the spotlight, the radiant smiles of celebrities are equally mesmerizing. It’s difficult not to feel a twinge of envy for their perfect bodies and flawless teeth. However, it’s essential to remember that celebrities aren’t simply born with these attributes?they work diligently to maintain them, teeth included. Interestingly, the same dental treatments that give celebrities their brilliant smiles are also available to you. Here’s an insider look at how celebrities achieve their pearly whites and how you can too.
Although many celebrities turn to dental professionals to maintain their bright smiles, lifestyle factors play a significant role in the appearance and color of one’s teeth. If you’re not in a rush and are curious to see how white your teeth can get naturally, consider these lifestyle adjustments for enhancing your smile:
Adopting these habits not only helps in achieving whiter teeth but also ensures they stay vibrant for longer, even if you choose professional treatments.
When it’s time to shoot a movie or go on a promotional talk-show tour, celebrities don’t have time to rely on lifestyle tips alone to get their teeth red-carpet ready. For a quicker approach to bright white teeth, dentists offer the following procedures:
Essentially, professional teeth whitening is a bleaching process that lightens discoloration of the enamel and dentin layers of the teeth. Although there are drugstore teeth-whitening systems available, they are not as effective as professional teeth whitening. At Smile Designers in San Diego, we use the Zoom Teeth Whitening System, which involves the application of a light-activated whitening gel that can whiten your teeth up to 8 shades in a single visit. The results are visible immediately.
Of course, teeth whitening only whitens teeth. It does not address any other tooth imperfections. When a celebrity has chipped, cracked, misshapen, discolored, disproportionate, gapped, uneven, or slightly misaligned teeth, dental veneers are usually a good solution. Dental veneers are thin porcelain shells that are bonded to the surface of the tooth to improve their shape, size, length, color, spacing, or overall uniformity. At Smile Designers, we offer both traditional dental veneers and Lumineers, which are even thinner. Both types of veneers have their distinct advantages. And, depending on the current condition of your teeth, both have the potential to help you achieve a red-carpet-ready smile.
