It’s hard to stay hidden during the long holiday season. You’ll likely have several family functions to attend, a holiday office party, and other various social engagements.
And because we tend to use the holidays as a chance to meet up with people we don’t get to see that often throughout the year, a lot of pictures are taken and then, gasp, shared on social media!
You need to feel comfortable in your own skin and confident about your smile.
Give Your Smile A Holiday Shine With Dental Veneers!
Your Winnipeg cosmetic dentist at Lakewood Dental Centre offers both traditional porcelain dental veneers and e.max veneers so you can choose the option that suits your needs. Standard veneers may require a bit of preparation to your tooth enamel so they’ll fit naturally and comfortably over your teeth.
E.max veneers are thinner, which means there isn’t as much prep work involved.
But both types accomplish the same thing for your smile, which is to make it look healthier, brighter, and more attractive!
Here are some of the ways dental veneers can alter your teeth:
*SHAPE*
Your teeth can either come in looking misshapen, or they can change and become worn over time.
Either way, you may have some teeth in the front that stand out in a negative way because they’re too short, too pointy, or too uneven and jagged around the edges.
Bonding veneers to misshapen teeth helps your smile look more consistent and seamless overall.
*ALIGNMENT*
Dental veneers won’t move your teeth. But they can give the illusion that your teeth have been pulled together into the proper position.
So if you have some small gaps between your teeth, or a couple of teeth that are slightly crooked, veneers can be placed over those flaws and give you a straight, even smile as if you just finished orthodontic treatment!
*COLOR*
As you age, you’ll probably notice that your teeth just aren’t as bright as they used to be. Your morning coffee, red wine with dinner, favorite marinara dish, or dark sauces and dressings can leave stains on your teeth over time.
Overall health, prescription medications, oral hygiene, and of course, tobacco use can also darken your teeth.
Professional teeth whitening is a great option for brightening your teeth by several shades, but some discoloration won’t respond to this treatment.
An attractive feature of dental veneers is that they can hide dark, discolored teeth and are more resistant to stains than your natural enamel. You’ll have a white, radiant smile for years!

Not sure how to make that happen?
No problem! Your friends at Lakewood Dental Centre are here to shed some light on the issue of dingy, discolored teeth and a couple of ways we can fix them!
Two Cosmetic Treatments That Whiten Your Teeth
The cosmetic dentistry service you choose to lighten things up in your smile will all depend on your current dental health and the needs and goals you discuss with your Winnipeg dentist. We will help you decide which method is going to be most suitable to your situation, but here are two options you may learn more about during your cosmetic consultation:
#1 – Professional Teeth Whitening Systems
Teeth whitening products have saturated the DIY cosmetic dentistry market. A simple walk down the oral care aisle of any drugstore is proof of that.
Toothpastes, strips, rinses, and gels… there’s so much to choose from, but sadly, it won’t matter which one you ultimately buy.
That’s because no commercial brand whitening product contains strong enough levels of bleaching agents that will make much of a difference in the color of your teeth. The other drawback is that even though DIY kits found in stores aren’t very powerful, they can do harm to your teeth and gums, with abrasive chemicals that could lead to irritation and sensitivity.
Only a dentist can provide safe, effective teeth whitening that will truly give you the results you’re looking for because we have access to prescription-strength products and use professional tools and techniques.
#2 – Customized Dental Veneers
Going to the dentist to whiten your teeth is the only way to do it if you want results.
But teeth whitening treatment isn’t right for everyone. Just because you have deeply set stains or discoloration with a couple of teeth doesn’t mean this is the only solution to brighten your smile.
Any teeth that have been restored with a filling, crown, or a root canal, for example, will be resistant to bleaching gels. Also, if you have stained teeth that are also damaged, or cosmetically flawed in other ways, teeth whitening treatment will only solve the color issue.
That’s when we might suggest customized dental veneers!
Not only do veneers instantly whiten teeth, but it’s a longer-lasting solution for a bright, glowing smile because they’re stain resistant!
But the benefits don’t stop there. Veneers are used to:
- Conceal misshapen teeth
- “Close” gaps and “straighten” teeth
- Hide cracked, chipped teeth
- Give your smile a more balanced, even smile overall
Dental veneers are the showstopper of cosmetic dentistry, used everywhere to give people from all walks of life glamorous smiles just like celebrities!
