Braces

Braces (translated as “brackets”) are an orthodontic removable device that corrects the position of the tooth row in case of an incorrect bite or uneven position. The structures are fixed with a special adhesive on the outer or inner side of the row. Braces are worn for at least a year, but they give the expected effect.

Types of braces:

• Vestibular. These are cheap corrective devices, fixed on the outer side of the tooth row.

Bleaching

Whitening is performed at home and in the dentist’s chair. There are many pastes, gummies, devices, folk recipes for brightening enamel.

Types of dental technologies:

• Mechanical. The enamel is cleaned with a scouring powder.
• Chemical. Applicable only for healthy teeth.
• Laser. Laser beam acts on the surface of the enamel, the method is effective and does not take much time.
• Ultrasonic. A procedure in which ultrasound is directed at the tooth row to remove hard dental deposits.
• Photo whitening. Light method of exposure to tooth enamel, rarely used (for people with insensitive teeth).

Will only whitening help

For a dazzling Hollywood smile, a set of procedures will be required.

• Diagnosis, prevention and treatment. If teeth are damaged, marred by decay, drinking, smoking, physical trauma, etc., this is corrected.
• Teeth are adjusted to the correct shape (large, even).

• The final step is whitening or placing onlays to simulate a beautiful smile.

You should be prepared for the fact that whitening does not always help. In neglected cases, only an experienced dentist will save your smile.

How to get a Hollywood smile at home

Getting your smile in order this way is cheaper than in a clinic. But you can’t get the whiteness of a celebrity smile, you can only lighten it.

• A mixture of strawberries and flour. Berries contain malic acid enzyme, which whitens.
• Rinse with apple cider vinegar (not more than once a week, so as not to crumble the enamel).
• Table salt. Rub with salt no more than once a week.

How to keep the result for a long time

• Do not eat sweets along with tea or coffee. Harmful bacteria more easily adhere to the enamel surface because of so much sugar.
• Brushing your teeth for longer than two minutes.
