]]> To make sure your smile stays protected against the risk of tooth decay, dental erosion, and any other forms of damage, make sure you understand tooth hazard risks in your life that could cause these forms of damage. Often, a failure to appropriately clean out your mouth can lead to microscopic damage. Furthermore, exercise caution with day-to-day activities and chores that you may have in your everyday life. To keep your smile safe from oral accidents and tooth hazards that can produce them, be aware of some of the common oral health risks.

Keeping your smile safe includes being aware of the risks associated with not wearing effective safety equipment. If you fail to use proper safety gear such as mouth guards or face masks, you can leave your smile open to vulnerabilities associated with oral accidents and injuries. If you’re involved in any contact sports, even a single strike or blow to the face can damage your smile and leave you with decades of repairs in your future. Rather than having your smile destroyed in seconds, always take the time to add an additional layer of protection with the use of mouth guards.

One tooth hazard risk that many individuals are often faced with is due to biting into hard products. Although teeth do seem to be strong, they are not designed to bite into hard products. If you try to bite into hard products such as cough drops, they can easily chip and crack your teeth. Even if you were able to bite through them as a youngster, your smile might have weakened over time and is no longer effective for biting into these substances.

Are there any remaining questions you have about tooth hazards? To improve your smile with tooth hazard prevention and care, you are welcome to schedule a visit to our dentist in Midvale, Utah. Dr. Chad S. Burt and our team at K B Dentistry look forward to taking your smile into the future. To contact us, please call our dental office at 801-255-3578.

Many patients prefer these dental restorations, and even celebrities use them to achieve smiles that are always camera-ready. Below we review the benefits of dental veneers to to help you know how these restorations can improve your smile.

Dental veneers are thin shells that are custom made to look like your natural teeth but with a more aesthetic shape to enhance their appearance. With the use of a high-quality dental porcelain, you can receive dental veneers that match your original tooth enamel or are even a few shades lighter to brighten your smile.

A common reason to receive dental veneers is to correct flaws in the teeth such as cracks, discoloration and chips that could negatively affect the appearance of your smile If dental veneers are placed over these teeth they will make your smile more uniform and white. Overall, dental veneers protect the teeth and improve the quality of any damaged or unflattering areas.

Our dentist applies a dental-grade adhesive in order to bond the veneers to the tooth surface and help them last as long as a decade, especially with proper brushing and flossing habits. The durability that helps dental veneers last so long also combines with a beautiful aesthetic that results in a bright, beautiful smile.
