For the past two years, the pandemic had many couples down-scale or postpone their big days. But with hopes that the virus is finally waning, the tradition shows signs of reviving. If you’re one of those happy couples, you’re no doubt working right now to look your best—and that would include your smile.

That’s why we decided to share these four procedures that will help your smile match this once-in-a-lifetime moment.

Since your smile will be preserved in time forever by your photographer and videographer, here are four cosmetic treatment options for brides and grooms to consider.

• Teeth whitening– This treatment can lighten your teeth up to eight shades in just one visit. Even though OTC (over-the-counter) choices available in stores can lift slight stains, they are no match for the powerful tools dentist uses for this type of treatment.

• Dental cleaning. The main purpose of visiting us every six months is to remove any harmful plaque and tartar missed with daily hygiene. But an added benefit for these single-visit dental cleanings can be a brighter, fresher smile. To take advantage, schedule a dental cleaning within a week or so of your wedding.

• Orthodontics. The original “smile transformer,” braces and other orthodontic methods move crooked teeth to better positions. Not only can orthodontic treatment result in a more attractive appearance, but it can also improve overall dental health.

• Repair defects with dental bonding. Do you have a chipped or disfigured tooth? We may be able to make that defect disappear in just one visit with dental bonding. Using a dental resin material matched to your natural tooth colour, we can fill in your tooth flaw and then sculpt it to look as natural as possible. The end result is a life-like, durable finish that will have you beaming on your big day.

Cosmetic dentistry can improve your aesthetic appearance for your wedding day so that your confidence shines through every photograph captured. Even the groom can opt to have cosmetic dentistry performed so that he too has a beautiful smile. Since many factors can impact the outcome of a smile makeover, it is best to be evaluated well before the wedding day. 

Whatever you feel is wrong with your smile, there is likely something a cosmetic dentist can do to improve it.
