Shed your Years and Fears without tears

Dentistry

Shed your years & fears without tears. Everyone likes to look young beautiful and charming. Some feel sorry for how they are and forget to improve their looks and blame the age they lived in for their appearance.

Yes it is true that the technology was not this far advanced, the reach of high quality treatment was rare and awareness was low. But it is better to be late than never and there is no space for regrets in this ever competing world. If you are not improving, you will be lost in this race for betterment and/or may be unnoticed. The best way to look young is to have a vibrant, confident smile.

Well aligned / positioned teeth will give a younger look than irregularly forwardly placed teeth. The time factor was the main reason for people to think against braces/orthodontics in the later stages of life. Hectic business schedules and travel plans would have kept putting braces for correction of forwardly /irregularly placed teeth in pending or with some not practical. The newer technologies have emerged to camouflage or to correct the misaligned or improperly placed teeth in very short span of time. It takes just single visit 2 hours to camouflage irregularly placed teeth and gaps between teeth this type treatment is branded as ASET.

ASET could correct your chipped off teeth with irregular edges, reverse smile curve, gummy smile, short and wide teeth and also in standing or irregularly placed teeth by camouflaging. The principle of this procedure is to make the teeth proportional to the proportions of the face. This is used for the smile grooming of professional models and people working in the visual media. The forwardly placed teeth could be corrected by decreasing the forward angulation of teeth by this oral rehabilitation procedure.

The treatment is done in two to three visits and finishes in seven (7) to 10 days. There is no requirement of surgery, hospitalization, braces, extraction of the forwardly placed tooth or any need of rest after the procedure. This makes it favored among the busy business people, the dental tourists as well as the non-residential Indians (NRI)that have very short span of visit in India.

The major advantage for this treatment is that it can be done when there are missing teeth-although they should be replaced during the treatment. The disadvantage is that this procedure should be done only if the person has ideal situations such as the age should be between 30 years & 80 years and the cost has to be determined only after the number of teeth involved and the computerized prediction of the treatment outcome is prepared. This procedure may not be favorable in some cases where in there is gum visibility (gummy smile).

The excellent facial changes definitely boost the personality and confidence in presenting yourself amongst your peers. Shedding years through effective smile designing could be achieved in a greater pace than yester years. The stigma of wearing orthodontic appliances in the latter years of life could be avoided and the smile could be improved by the improved technologies that are available with the modern dentists better known as smile architects.
