You could sleep late, play outside all day, and then come inside when the fireflies appeared. Today, however, it can be hard to relax, and worse yet, many people feel guilty if they\u2019re not being productive. This year, why not use your downtime for a little self-care? These three dynamic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mymiltondentist.com\/cosmetic-dentistry.html#recon\">cosmetic dentistry<\/a> treatments can be done on your seasonal break, and while they won\u2019t require you to pull your usual nine-to-five, you\u2019ll still have the amazing benefit of doing something productive with your free time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Porcelain Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Porcelain veneers have earned the nickname \u201cinstant orthodontics\u201d because they can transform your smile both dramatically and quickly. In about two weeks, you can change the entire appearance of your gorgeous grin, including the spacing, size, shape and even the color of your teeth! To get them, you\u2019ll need a consultation with your dentist, an appointment to reshape the teeth to fit your new prosthetics, and one more follow-up appointment to attach them. Then, you\u2019ll be able to showcase that stunning new smile all before the first leaves hit the ground this fall!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teeth Whitening<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are your teeth looking a little lackluster? Professional whitening can remove up to eight shades of discoloration in about an hour with in-office treatment and in about two weeks with a take home kit. Imagine having a gleaming white smile when you head back to college or work. You can easily make your dream a reality with the help of professional whitening, so schedule a consultation with your dentist today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gum Recontouring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you have a gummy smile that makes your teeth look too small, and leaves your mouth prone to periodontal infections? Gum recontouring can remove excess tissue and balance the appearance of your smile. This procedure is permanent and can be done in just one appointment. Best of all, most patients say the discomfort is minimal and can be easily treated with over-the-counter pain relievers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, you can still enjoy your summer vacation and be productive at the same time. This year, talk to your dentist about how cosmetic dentistry can quickly improve your smile while you relax and you could have a gorgeous, glowing new grin before the pumpkin spice hits the shelves!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Our Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mymiltondentist.com\/meet-the-team.html\">Milton Hill Dental<\/a>, our team of caring and talented dentists is proud to offer a variety of life-changing cosmetic dentistry treatments that can give you the smile of your dreams.
