With just a few trips to the dentist you can erase myriad aesthetic issues from your teeth, giving you the beautiful smile you\u2019ve always wanted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you see your brand-new smile for the first time, you\u2019ll probably hope that you can keep it around for as long as possible. Here\u2019s what you should know about how long the results of your cosmetic dentistry will last, and what you can do to maintain your new smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long Will Cosmetic Dentistry Last?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount of time that you can keep your smile around will depend heavily on the exact treatment that you are pursuing. Generally speaking, quicker and easier cosmetic procedures tend to fade much faster. Direct bonding and teeth whitening, for example, can be completed without modifying the teeth very much at all\u2014however, the results of these treatments last only a few years at most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers, on the other hand, require modifying the underlying teeth. However, they typically last anywhere from 10-20 years if you maintain them well. If you pursue Invisalign or clear aligner therapy it\u2019ll take a year to see results, but your smile can stay straighter for a lifetime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best thing to do if you want to know more about the lifespan of your cosmetic treatment is to talk to your dentist. They\u2019ll be able to tell you more about what you can expect from the procedure that you\u2019re getting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Make Your Results Last Longer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in keeping your smile in good condition for as long as possible, good oral hygiene is critical. You should make it a point to brush twice a day, floss daily, and use antibacterial mouthwash to keep plaque at bay. It\u2019s also important to see your dentist for checkups and cleanings regularly, at least twice a year. This will give them an opportunity to clean plaque from places that you can\u2019t reach ordinarily, as well as to advise you on what you could be doing better to keep your smile around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Shefat Rabbi wanted to pursue dentistry as a career from a young age, as the idea of being able to help people with his extensive scientific knowledge has always been appealing to him.
