You’re Embarrassed By Your Smile
In movies and shows, we’ve all seen the unfortunate character who is given “bad teeth” for whatever reason. And, while on the show it may seem funny, especially in cases where the character’s teeth are designed to be too big for their face, if we are nervous that our smile may be considered “bad”, there’s nothing funny about it. Taking care of your body, your face, your hair, and your skin can all help your appearance and help make you feel confident in yourself and in social situations, however, a smile you’re unhappy with will make even the most confident of people feel lackluster. For this reason, and this reason alone, cosmetic dentistry is a good option. You don’t need to have any “dental issues” to want a nice smile, if you want a smile you love showing off, then you deserve one, it’s that simple.
You Want Optimal Oral Health
It doesn’t matter if you currently have good oral health before getting cosmetic dentistry, cosmetic dentistry in Idaho Falls can help to ensure that you keep it(as long as you take care of your smile). For example, if you have a chipped, cracked, or damaged tooth, cosmetic dentistry can help to fill in the chipped tooth so that it’s protected from more outside damage and it reduces the risk of tooth decay-a real problem that happens when damage to teeth is not dealt with properly. One sign that you may need cosmetic dentistry is you are continually noticing cavities or tooth pain occurring, even though you’re following the general guidelines of brushing and flossing twice a day. Talk with your Idaho Falls cosmetic dentist about potential solutions to have you feeling and smiling your best.
Your Face Looks Different
One day you’re washing your face and brushing your teeth before bed and you notice it, your face looks different. Not just because of age, but the shape of your face looks different! Unfortunately, missing teeth may be to blame in some cases. When teeth are missing from the mouth the surrounding teeth will shift since there isn’t another tooth or teeth to keep them in their place. Additionally, missing teeth can result in a weak jawbone, and in some cases, your jaw may start to lose some of its bone mass if there’s a tooth infection that hasn’t been dealt with! If it seems like your face shape is changing rapidly, especially if you have an oral infection or missing teeth, consider making an appointment with one of our experienced cosmetic dentists at Eagle Rock Dental Care in Idaho Falls to see what cosmetic dentistry options are right for you.
You’re Plagued By Headaches 
Misaligned teeth can cause more issues than just cosmetic problems. Misaligned teeth and bites have been known to cause TMD or Temporomandibular Disorder. With this disorder, patients will experience pressure in the jaw and head leading to debilitating headaches and migraines. They are also susceptible to lockjaw and will often notice their jaw popping, clicking, or cracking when they talk, sing, or chew food. Depending on the severity of a person’s TMD, they may not deal with headaches or if they do they are far and few between. Regardless of the frequency in which headaches and pressure in the jaw occur it is vital to your oral and overall health to at least discuss your options with a qualified cosmetic dentist in Idaho Falls.
If you answered yes to any of the above situations, then it’s more than likely that you could benefit from seeing a cosmetic dentist in Idaho Falls. Whatever your dental needs are, we are here to help. Call Eagle Rock Dental Care in Idaho Falls today, to schedule an appointment.
