Weddings are undisputedly happy affairs; members of the wedding party and guests alike will be beaming from ear to ear from start to finish, so it’s important that you make sure you’re teeth are up to the task! For many people though, ‘baring all’ in the smile department is something that doesn’t come naturally, especially for those that are embarrassed by their teeth.

Bad teeth shouldn’t stop you from enjoying your big day though. Whether it’s a severe case of crooked, stained and missing teeth, or just light staining that can be overcome with a simple whitening procedure; a little planning and investment in your smile now, can go a long way to making you look and feel great come wedding time.

Plan Your Smile Makeover Well In Advance

If you have particularly bad teeth and are considering a complete smile makeover before your wedding it is important to make an appointment with your dentist as soon as you can. With advances in cosmetic dentistry making procedures more accessible and affordable, dentists can work wonders with your smile – but it takes time.

Crowns and bridges may only take a couple of weeks from start to finish, but complete veneer smile makeovers may require up to 4 weeks and braces can take many months to achieve the desired results!

Get ‘White Wedding’ Ready

If you’re pretty happy with the way your teeth look but want to supercharge your smile ready for the big day, a whitening package from your dentist is probably the best way to go. There are a number of whitening options available ranging from laser treatment performed at the dentist surgery to take-home bleaching trays that work while you sleep.

Depending on your circumstances, and the condition of your teeth, your dentist will recommend the best whitening treatment for you.
