People often drag their feet about pursuing a smile makeover for whatever reason makes sense to them. Some know the disappearance of their broken-down teeth will be extremely noticeable, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Here’s the secret: People won’t remember what your teeth looked like before the cosmetic dentistry – they’ll only recognize a great smile in front of them now. Don’t hesitate to upgrade to a perfect smile.
The Winding Road to a Smile Makeover
Recently, Kelsey Anderson, who got engaged to The Bachelor Joey Graziadei, shared some news about her teeth with her social media fans on Instagram and TikTok. “Breaking news, Kelsey Anderson has fake teeth. I [got] nine veneers and one crown.” She then explained why.
During a routine dental cleaning, Kelsey’s dentist discovered she had a raging infection in her gum and jaw from a years-old oral health problem that she thought had been corrected. There was bone decay and an infection in the root canal and the therapy needed to be redone (she still needs to be rechecked in six months to make sure all is well within her jaw). Her dentist was shocked that the pain of the infection hadn’t bothered her. Now she recognizes that her mouth feels different – and better, functionally and physically.
Get a Perfect Smile Whether You’re Famous or Unknown
While Kelsey underwent her root canal therapy, she decided that would be the right time to finally get cosmetic dentistry. “This has nothing to do with me not liking my smile. I’ve always loved my smile,” she says. Her insecurities about her teeth, however, have long been present. Here is the scoop on her dental dilemma:
- She broke three of her front teeth several years ago.
- The broken but repaired teeth cannot be whitened.
- She avoided whitening all her teeth because the damaged teeth would stand out.
- Temporary veneers used to previously fix the broken teeth were chipped.
- She wanted her whole smile to match.
- She was insecure about her brittle teeth.
If you have broken-down teeth, or even a smile that looks whole but you know deep down is not, it is possible to get the right cosmetic dentistry treatments that give you a beautiful, natural-looking smile.
