It’s almost time to turn the clocks back one hour and put an end to Daylight Saving Time in 2021. Those extra 60 minutes will feel delicious for a few days and you may be tempted to sleep more to make up for lost time. However, there are plenty of other ways to put that extra hour to good use, and they begin with customized cosmetic dentistry.
Upgrade Your Smile in No Time
Most New Yorkers are regularly on the hunt for effective methods of physical self-improvement, whether you want to look better for your job, your love life, or yourself. There are easy ways to add some pizazz to your appearance and look like a VIP – and they only take about an hour.
- Professional teeth whitening: There are several types of pro teeth whitening treatments If you are eligible, an in-office whitening only takes about an hour to complete. ZOOM! whitening makes teeth up to eight shades whiter in one hour. The KöR whitening treatment can actually make enamel sparkle. There is also the Rembrandt Sapphire system that makes dingy teeth disappear and the Opalescence Boost whitening that doesn’t require any lasers or blue lights.
- Cosmetic tooth bonding: This easy, minimally invasive treatment is one of the fastest ways to correct a tooth with a minor problem or pesky cosmetic issue. Dental bonding only takes about 30 minutes per tooth to complete and it can make any of the following problems disappear: stains, discoloration, cracks, chips, and gaps. When you need a quick fix without a lot of fuss, bonding is the way to go.
- Teeth cleaning: Never underestimate the power of a professional teeth cleaning. If it’s been a while since your last dental checkup, it’s time to make an appointment. Your dental hygienist will get in there and remove any plaque, bacteria, and build up, then polish your teeth to high shine. They’ll look better than they have in months, plus your New York City dentist will get his eyes on your teeth to inspect them for any suspicious areas so they can be addressed before they cause major problems.
