Yes, a white smile looks lovely. A fresh new smile on a child is generally healthy, too, because it’s brand new (not because it’s so vivid looking). Translation: Just because a smile looks lovely does not mean that it is healthy. A yucky looking grin can be very healthy, while a vivid grin may require restorative care.
Even brand new, completely immaculate teeth are not bright white. They’re an off shade with a bit of a yellow tint, generally speaking. So, when you’re on a journey to achieve a brilliant looking smile, make sure you have realistic expectations. A white smile should harmonize with your face. It should not glow to a shocking degree.
Remember that your previously white smile may look a bit dim these days due to a variety of reasons. Surface stains can contribute, internal stains may become an issue, and even the thickness of your enamel can come into play (thin enamel lets your yellow dentin shine through). When you’re ready for whiter teeth, seek our care.
