You may want to improve your smile, but don’t want the hassle of braces. Luckily for you, there are numerous options available that can help you achieve a beautiful smile.
Key takeaways:
• You can get porcelain veneers placed on your teeth to transform their appearance.
• Dental bonding can also be used to repair gaps, cracks, a discoloured or misshapen tooth.
• You can also get Invisalign which uses clear and removable aligners to straighten teeth.
• Lingual braces are placed at the back of the teeth, lingual braces are almost unnoticeable from the front.
Talk to your dentist and see which options will work best for you.
