if you have teeth that are stained, discolored or otherwise not ‘in shape,’ you may feel self-conscious. this can stop you from speaking freely. Or if you unconsciously put your hands in front of your mouth when you talk. But when your teeth and gums are healthy, you have the confidence to express yourself. And confidence is a very appealing characteristic.
Missing, crooked, and broken teeth are problems for lots of people. Sadly, many of them don’t take the time and effort to do anything about it. And that’s a shame because modern dentistry has so many amazing techniques and procedures that can help.
It really starts with regular check-ups and cleanings. That’s the baseline of a healthy, happy smile. After that, there’s practically no end to what can be done to make your mouth look and feel great.
Tooth whitening can banish coffee stains and remove the yellow left behind from smoking. Invisible braces can remove gaps and get your teeth in line. Perhaps you’re a candidate for an ‘extreme makeover’ with dental implants or veneers. Whatever you choose, you can be certain that the investment you make in a ‘million dollar’ smile will pay for itself a thousand times over.

A smile can be broken down into several components - what are they and how does it effect the smile
1, The lips – these frame the smile and large lips or thin can all make a difference to the smile and the way it looks thin lips will show more teeth and more of the gums
2, The gums – these can be considered the stage or the setting for the smile and they can have an impact on the smile if we show too much then this can give the gummy smile appearance.
3, The teeth – if the gums are the stage then the teeth are the actors and like actors they can come in many shapes and sizes but together the give the smile a certain character. Often if one or two are short or smaller in comparison to the others then this can effect the smile.
4, The face – not forgetting the face which lights up with a smile and the muscles in the face which move the cheek and allow us to smile .
