Building Confidence With Dental Beauty

If you're getting married this summer, you are probably looking forward to enjoying the beautiful weather on the biggest day of your life. However, one thing that might be holding you back from getting excited is the appearance of your teeth. You'll probably have a lot of people looking at you on your big day, and you might be planning on taking lots of photographs. If your teeth aren't pretty and white, you could feel self-conscious when you should instead feel happy and excited. Luckily, following these three tips can help you enjoy a brighter smile for your summertime wedding.  

1. Have Them Professionally Whitened

If you haven't met with a dentist to have your teeth professionally whitened, you might be surprised by just how much of an impact one of these treatments can have on your teeth. A professional whitening can be far more effective than an at-home treatment, and some dentists offer summertime specials for people who are preparing for vacations and other summertime events. Call your cosmetic dentist today to find out about professional whitening treatments that might be an option for you.

2. Wear Bright Lipstick

Even though you might be putting away your darker, burgundy-type shades of lipstick for the summer, some of summer's greatest shades include bright, bold shades of pink and red. If you wear a bright lipstick, you can create a huge contrast between the color of your teeth and your lips, which can immediately make your teeth look whiter. When talking to your makeup artist about your wedding day look, consider trying on bright shades that are summertime-friendly but that will also make your teeth look beautiful and white. 

3. Apply Sunless Tanner 

Just as the contrast between the color of your lips and your teeth can make your teeth look whiter, a big contrast between the shade of your skin and your teeth can also make a difference. Plus, having tan skin can make your wedding dress look great and can make you feel confident at your summer wedding. To get this look but to avoid skin damage, consider a spray tan at a tanning salon, or apply at at-home sunless tanner.

As you can see, there are a few ways that you can enjoy a brighter smile at your summertime wedding. Give these tips a try, and you're sure to feel confident enough to flash your biggest, brightest smile for your wedding photographer, family and friends.
